I eat meat, but man do I see some dumb shit posted on that com. Apparently I called someone too hard on their bullshit. Hardcore carnists sure are fucking delicate. Maybe they should get a little more fiber in their diet.

At least hardcore vegans are that way for an understandable reason. Hardcore anti-vegans just do it for the love of the beef (pun absolutely intended).

That was an excellent/terrible pun. I tip my Kangol to you.

We are badly misunderstood. But that's okay, it surely seems that someone who only eats meat must be crazy in some way, since it's such a deviation from the norm.

From the community description:

We are focused on health and lifestyle while trying to eat zero carb bioavailable foods.

Zero-carb is an elimination diet. Practitioners generally do it because they've had health problems that were resolved by the removal of various problematic foods. If you're curious, there are many testimonials here: https://www.youtube.com/@zerocarb

I was pre-diabetic, hypertensive, and had fatty liver.

(By the way, you can eat all meat on zero-carb, as long as it doesn't cause you any problems, and not just beef. It's just that ruminant meat appears to be the most optimal. It's also good to have some fish.)

Zero carb is fat based! Not meat based. For the average person they don't add any extra protein in, they just swap out carbohydrates for fat.

A zero carb carnivore eats the same amount of meat as 98% of the world.

Seems like they have a real beef with you. You really backed them into a carne.

A smoking burn! Really raking them over the coals.

I wonder how many health problems a meat diet will cause? Guess they’ve never heard of gout.

Gout is terrible. It's not just for meat diets though. Lots of foods contain the things that trigger it. Hydration is the best way to fend it off.

At the time the automation identified your user behavior as inorganic.

Here is the guiding moderation philosophy of that community: https://hackertalks.com/post/13655318
