Why are meat eaters so triggered by vegetarians/ vegans?

[truthisfreedom]

To clarify, I'm a meat eater. I don't eat pork or beef, because if people hold dogs as so sacred, I think it's a travesty to murder animals who are even smarter and closer to humans than dogs are. But I do eat chicken, turkey and fish.

Speaking objectively, I admire vegans / vegetarians very much; they are basically us, with a more developed sense of empathy for other beings, and much greater self control than we have.



I find that alot (not all) meat eaters seem to have vitriolic hatred against them......why is that?

Some don't want to feel like they are eating something unhealthy/unethical. Some feel that you do need meat and its unhealthy to be vegan/vegetarian. Some got exposed to an asshole vegan/vegetarian.


Different reasons I guess.

 

[mjmj]

Because they're usually assholes?

 

[milliniar]

vegans are the ones that are often triggered by the person eating meat.

The only unethical thing is to be crating and abuse of animals. Hunting a free animal like ancesters of humans did for thousand of years is not unethical. I do not eat meat by way.

This is what I'm referring to. I've met DOZENS of vegetarians and vegans, especially at my latest job, and while there are a few assholes, just like any other sub-segment of the population, most are very pleasant and extremely friendly.

I'm a meat eater who is leaning over to making a move to the veganism I've found alot of vegans in this forum and elsewhere to be lost up their own asses.

It's as if they decided to become vegan so they could feel some sense of larger importance they could declare to the world rather than for any moral reasons. Frankly, it is quite sad if your dietary habits of all things are what you strike out with as your meaningful contribution to the world.

I feel towards the issue like i do towards religion. Keep it yourself and live and let live.

when i die, other animals can eat me to balance things out.

I'm pretty sure most meat eaters dont give a fuck

Because they're pussies. But typically I find it's the vegan liberal chodes that get waaaaaaaay more triggered.

Seems to me that most vegans are women. And most of those women don't give a shit about animals, they just don't wanna get fat.

90% selfish motives IMO.

Tbh, it's the "eating rotting flesh"/"stealing a calf's milf" shit I can't be bothered with

 

[Sir Galahad]

I believe it's the other way around.

 

[ROKKO]

If vegetarians care about animals so much why are they eating all their food?

 

[Eazy123]

I'd say the ratio of meat eaters "triggered" by vegans is about the same as vegans pushing that they're vegans on meat eaters.

 

[neverwas]

because of this shit.

 

[ObsoleteSoul]

You sound pheggy.

Meat eaters dont care about vegans. It's quite the opposite. Find me a rally of meat eaters against vegans. I'll be waiting.

Meat eaters don’t give a shit unless Liberal vegans start preaching in their face. I-gave it a try a few years ago to help my stomach and my numbers. As an athlete it didn’t do anything for me but give me acid reflux, lost weight including muscle, and the runs. What helped me was cutting out sugar and simple carbs in processed foods. I don’t judge, because everybody reacts differently.

 

[HunterSdVa29]

most don't care...

if they do it's because they're generally A) weird, and B) love to tell you about it
