prefacing this by saying i know there are some sane ones that do it just as a personal choice and dont put down others etc etc etc but the way online vegans talk about animal products is genuinely so concerning. ive seen them call normal ass meat ‘rotting/decomposing flesh’ and milk ‘mucusy secretions’ and the obvious intention is trying to gross normal people out of consuming them but like ??? What ??? i liked milk before, i knew what it was and where it came from before, why would you describing a secretion as a secretion (where the hell did they ever get ‘mucusy’ from anyway have they ever even drank it) somehow deter me from drinking it or consuming other products that use it

#originals #also this is less like universally obvious slash relatable slash whatever but im being serious when i say cutting milk out could harm me #i am very critically underweight i have a lot of issues with eating (not in an ed way like physically) milk is like The Only fatty thing #that i can consume good amts of in one sitting if i suddenly stopped drinking it i would lose even more weight #and then there are the more normal examples of like. people who are just allergic to a lot of common vegan substitutes #or people who have iron deficiency issues and need red meat to help with that #or people who have fucking brains and realise that an animals life will never be worth as much as the human beings who have to harvest #all this shit just for white american vegans to buy at absurdly marked up prices in the supermarket while theyre paid next to nothing #'they' being the brown farmers in the global south i dont fucking care how much online vegans are paid theyre all privileged #or literally just people who like how meat tastes tbh food makes people happy id much rather have someone eat meat and be happy than #eat 'sustainable' 'humane' vegan subs and not gain any pleasure from it #also this is coming from someone who also does not personally like eating actual meat in case someone is about to scream at me
