Comment on I love children's sense of humour
debil@lemmy.world 11 months agoIt’s funny considering how eating meat and using animal products is normalized in society, that when a vegan states a differing opinion (that also happens to be a fact) it’s automatically them imposing their beliefs on people. I guess it’s a symptom of their cognitive dissonance activating for a moment.

Would it be acceptable for someone calling you a murderer for eating meat, wearing leather shoes or driving petrol car?

Maybe it’s stretching the word meaning a bit but I’d definitely be contributing to animal murdering by eating meat. The same applies if I buy new leather shoes. Driving a petrol car, otoh, the connection to animal killing is not as straightforward, but it’s harmful for the environment and hence harming wild animals as well.
So yes, it’s not polite, but acceptable.

🤦♂️ Not a religion imposing their beliefs at all.

Indeed. Can you point any inconsistencies in that sentiment, or prove it false? If not, what’s the problem here?
