I'm a species-specific eater. I don't eat beef or pork because I like pigs and cows they are adorable and I wish them all the best.

I do eat lamb, because sheep are idiots and I got kicked by one as a child. For similar reason, I would also eat horse if it was commercially available.

Chickens would eat me if our sizes were reversed so they are fair game too. If you didn't want to get farmed you shoulda stayed T-Rex sized.

I eat mushrooms, but I am a little apprehensive about it because I know they are smarter than humans

I was about to disagree with you, but then I realized that some humans are certainly dumber than a mushroom

Some? Around a third I would say.

I've heard goats are like mushrooms 👍

horse is good eating. good for the climate too, since horses require so much maintenance. if we eat'em, they're gone.

There's an awkward open secret in the UK.

The new forest has a significant 'wild' pony population. More than the forest can support over winter. The excess is gathered up and sold. While some are brought as riders, most are sold to france. On a completely unrelated note. France has no problem eating horse.

I've never, not even once, seen another vegan who has argued that a person should starve if they have no other choice but to eat animal products.

That's called activism purism, I call it activism puritanism. It's, again, a very conservative way of being an activist but somehow appears in leftist groups. But I can't shake the fact that there's limits, anything that feels like a personal choice but impact hugely others, like vaccination.

Leftist is when vegan

How to say you don't know what a word means without saying you don't know what it means.

[–] AbsoluteChicagoDog@lemm.ee 1 points 5 days ago

Which word?
