People's perspectives on things are weird. I'm totally fine with vegans, vegetarians, meat eaters, whoever. But when someone who eats meat is excited because they think meat tastes good...... why did you think they eat it??? Obviously they think it's yummy, and obviously, to a certain degree, they see animals as a source of that. If you want to fight against that fine, but don't act surprised that it exists.
I'm a meat-eater. The vegans are right - its more moral to not eat meat. Meat eaters getting outraged when people point out that meat is actually dead animals are hypocrites. Either accept that you're in the wrong but doing it anyway (as I am) or change. Don't complain when people point out your hypocrisy
I've shot and killed my own cow, I skinned it, cut it, and roasted it over a massive fire pit. The locals were loving every second of it happening, and I can totally agree with Ramsay.
Just remember to use Mint Sauce/Jelly on the lamb, its like opening a portal to flavourtown.
I do this at the county fair all the time before the auction. "ooo, that one looks tasty" "look at the haunches on that fucker he looks delicious" it's so fun
I'm torn because I'm not offended by it but I do think it's pretty bad taste. I know meat comes from animals. I know animals don't understand English. It's just a weird thing to post in my opinion
"Hehehe, these animals were bred to be slaughtered" is a dark but not really funny enough to be dark humor
One year within the last decade, my dad selected a lamb for Christmas from a local farm. He took a picture of it and had it printed for display with the meat Christmas day. Kept gleefully, excitedly commenting on how happy the lamb looked as it frolicked with the cow in the picture, kept doing this cute little clap when he was talking about the lamb.
Mom didn't find his excitement tasteful, but the lamb was the best we'd had.
People wouldn’t care nearly as much if he said this while standing over a pond full of fish, but since they’re cute, fuzzy lambs, it’s Crossing The Line.
So... if you're not acknowledging where the meat comes from, that's bad
But if you are acknowledging it, it's bad as well?
Many people who eat meat do that not while lying to themselves about where it comes from as many vegetarians/vegans assume. They just legitimately do not feel bad for the animals they eat. Just as so many of us don't feel bad about the clothes they wear or the smartphone batteries they use.
The world is full of abuse, suffering and other such bullshit. You can't feel bad about all of it, or you'd go insane because you can't escape it. Besides, the brain just numbs itself at a certain pöint. So you need to allocate your compassion to a few of the sufferings you know of. Many go with animals for that. Many don't.
So the question isn't why the person eating meat is heartless, the question is what kind of pity the person not eating meat left out for it.
It's beyond belief that most people don't see the difference between killing something and dancing on its grave. "It's dead either way" is just so far from missing the point it's ridiculous.
