    Guy talks about killing animals. Everyone congratulates them on how moral they are.

    Other guy talks about not killing animals. People write multiple paragraphs about how problematic their comment is.

    Might want to examine your biases, bud.

      Literally in the process of reducing my animal product intake. Just checked them-

      Annnnd yup, being needlessly combative with people in service of your cause still sucks, and still isn’t a very good way of reaching people.

      You can reduce more animal suffering if the fact that you’re not being insufferable keeps them open to why it’s something you’re so passionate about.

        Wasn’t trying, bud. Why is your expectation that I must be constantly be ‘doing outreach’? Do you tell carnists that they should stop being ‘needlessly combative’ so they can ‘reach people’? Do you lecture people that when they talk about rape or murder being bad, they must do it in the correct way to avoid upsetting the pro-murder factions? GTFO with this nonsense. Anyone with an Internet connection can see the facts for themselves plain as day - I don’t have to sermonize shit. I also don’t have to pretend that carnism is in any way moral. That’s your hangup, not mine.
