Seems counterproductive, because you're never going to change anyone's mind by being an insufferable twat. Enjoy being hated.
Many anti-lgbtq+ folks think that people who support or are a part of the lgbtq+ are insufferable, but here we are making progress for peoples rights.
If you want to be a bigot against nonhuman animals and their rights, i can't stop you. But at least be aware that that's what's happening. People perpetuating injustice are never going to be happy with those against it no matter how it's presented, so i'd rather just be as clear and concise as I can
LGBTQ+ and veganism are very, very different topics. LGBTQ+ supporters are fighting for the rights of themselves, their friends and family, etc. - other human beings. You're attempting to fight for the rights of wild animals that do not have the capability to communicate, nor have the ability to even comprehend the concept of death itself.
I'm not here to argue about morals, I'm here to argue that you should mind your own fucking business. The world would be a better place if you did that one simple thing. Don't like gay people? Okay, just mind your own fucking business. Not okay with people choosing to have an abortion? Great, mind your own fucking business. Hate the idea that people enjoy eating meat? Mind. Your. Own. Fucking. Business. If anything, that mindset is quite literally the opposite of being a bigot.
Ok, mind your own business when it comes to nonhuman animals. Paying to have them exploited and killed is the opposite of minding your own business, it's forcing your views onto them, and i'm here to tell you stop forcing your speciesist views onto innocent nonhuman animals
