      Is a carnist anyone who happens to consume animal protein or just any of a dozen or so influencer/charlatans who advocate for meat consumption?

        It ranges from people eating meat to people religiousl defending eating meat. I would usually tend towards the latter when using the word. Bloodmouth is another apt one.

          Hmmm. Is there a slur for people who eat synthetic meat?

          It just occurred to me that I cannot think of a slur for vegans or vegetarians off the top of my head.

            The slur is “self righteous pricks” when they behave like the above. I say this as somebody who thinks vegans get a very unfair, underserved bad rap. People like the commenter above give all of them a bad name even though I find most vegans are just trying to live their life their way and don’t lecture folks.
