@upliftvegans@GazOakley I can’t say I’m surprised. Dude was exploiting chickens for their eggs in his backyard and wondering why some vegans were going at him for it.
@WindowsKevin@coxrab@PopCrave She’s telling you how to live as much as someone telling you how bad murdering someone is. If you feel like she’s telling you to stop eating meat, maybe consider that for a minute instead of getting defensive. Listen to that voice inside of you 😉
@dustprince0@cyncci@sibaburck Exactly, but it sounds a lot better to say “I can’t afford to be ethical 🥺” than to say “I’m just too lazy to care about being ethical 😒”
@WindowsKevin@coxrab@PopCrave The only thing I’m arguing here is that she didn’t tell anyone how to live lol she simply showed what’s going on in animal agriculture and made a valid statement about it. To get upset about it and say she’s telling ppl how to live only proves it struck a nerve 🤷♂️
@WindowsKevin@coxrab@PopCrave If anything she told people to continue to live in a constant state of cognitive dissonance. She’s encouraging you to do what you want. Not what she wants. I’m sure she’d prefer people to live vegan, but she didn’t tell anyone to do so.
@WindowsKevin@coxrab@PopCrave Telling someone that cigarettes are bad for their health isn’t the same thing as telling them to stop smoking cigarettes. What you do with that information is up to you. Again, if you feel like someone is trying to tell you what to do, it’s your conscience.
@WindowsKevin@coxrab@PopCrave She’s not even telling ppl how to live, she’s bringing attention to an atrocity. If you feel like she’s telling you what to do, that’s probably your conscience trying to reach you.
@coxrab@PopCrave Didn’t she make it obvious, when she doubled down on her recent take, that these aren’t her opinions any more? I didn’t like her after seeing this when it first came out either, but she’s clearly grown since then.
