    99% of vegans dont say eating meat in itself is wrong and this bullshit narrative needs to stop

    Edit: I wrote “in itself” to make it especially clear, but it seems people are skipping that part. The act of eating meat can not be evil, carnivorous animals do it for survival. The context is always what matters.

        Youre saying vegans want to stop animals from eating other animals? I dont think so.

      🤣 go to the Lemmy vegan community and say that. I’m sure you’ll easily get 99 upvotes and only a single downvote

        It’s all about assumed context. If you ask that question in English on the internet, most readers assume you’re talking about in the US, or failing that, in a developed country in the West. Therefore if you buy a pound of beef, it’s from a factory farm.

        They’re not going to assume you’re a scavenger harvesting meat from already dead caribou in the artic.

        I can go to a conservative community and say liberals have horns and get the same result. It proves nothing.
