Yeah, that bullshit "i'm not a vegan, I'm just gonna say vegan things" act wont pass here.
Also, I love how you are trying to claim something that a significant portion of all animal life on the planet does is "weird".
Like, maybe thats a you problem, bro.
If you're familiar with trophic levels, you would know it's literally impossible for a majority of the planet's population to be carnivorous. The population levels of species in one trophic level are limited by the population size of what they eat. Primary producers and herbivores must always outnumber omnivores and carnivores.
And when you look at the full breadth of the harms caused by humans eating animals, it clearly is an abnormal practice. Just because something is popular, doesn't mean it's normal. Doing something every day that is completely contrary to our own natures, our own wellbeing, the wellbeing of all the other intelligent beings we share this planet with, and the planet itself, is grotesque and strange in the extreme.
See this is the thing I'm pissed off about though... we don't get to eat the animals that are murdered.. a good extreme majority of us cannot fucking afford the meat that is on our grocery shelves... we're not eating animals... we can't afford to eat animals... they're just slaughtering animals to throw them in grocery store dumpsters.. it's not an 'us, problem.. ......so why the fuck are you yelling at us, when you should be yelling at The giant factory Farms and the governments who allow people to overslaughter these animals, put them on a shelf in a store, let it sit and rot while no one affords it, and then throws it into a dumpster at the end of the week.. why aren't you yelling at them?
Seriously I'm fucking sick of it and I'm fucking hungry.. all I eat is God damn potatoes and fucking rice and fucking peanut butter and I hate your stupid vegan food I'm starving and I fucking hate beans. I just want a fucking steak but I'm not allowed to cuz I can't afford it and it makes me a total fucking asshole I guess, to want to eat food.
B12 supplement and more tofu (lots of your favourite spices)
