  How can vegetarians be real if our vegetables aren’t real?

    Now you’re asking the questions they don’t want you to ask

    Vegetarians aren’t real because they still support mass murder of animals! (partly /s)

      Just curious, how are they doing that?

        Eating eggs -> financially supporting a system where male chicks get either immediately killed after birth or more rarely are later killed for their meat. Also it is supporting a system where chickens are bred to produce as many eggs as fast as possible, which means a life of torture to them

        Drinking milk -> financially supporting a system where cows are continuously impregnated against their will and where their offspring is immediately taken from them and killed for their meat (I think this is done yearly). Also it is supporting a system where cows are bred to produce as much milk as fast as possible, which means a life of torture to them

        There are certainly many more atrocities happening, but I’m trying not to think too often of that stuff

        I would guess by eating diary, eggs, leather, etc. I heard this take just yesterday, and I can see a point, because most animal industries don’t treat animals well even when it’s not about killing the animal

  It is beautiful, but you made it sound like Mexican food. It’s all the same you can just do it differently and call it something else.

  That wheat is a grass is even easier to understand than corn also is one. And don’t forget bamboo, which can even grow into huge “trees” forming large bamboo forests!

  I get the idea planetologists got high of their own supply. What the fuck is up with all that?

    The most sensical classification of species. Tracking shared traits and now shared DNA to group species by how recently they share an ancestor.
