*please note i deeply value and respect the vegan movement. i am just critical of how humorously it precipitates in online spaces, particularly this one. :)

TIL there’s vegan slurs. Don’t think I’ve ever been called something specific for being pro-meat. And I do loooooove my meat-based diet, let me assure you. No vegan slur would ever change that.

"Carnist" is one the weird ones throw around. Makes it sound like I worship the Flesh Mother, the Great Changer.

Which is pretty cool.

it's not a slur, it's the name for the ideology you follow. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnism

Thinking it's a slur is as silly as people thinking cis is a slur and exactly as reactionary.
