This is going to trigger so many broflakes who have made eating meat their whole personality.
And before anybody starts screeching, I'm not even a vegan. I do mostly make vegan food at home, but you can pry my cheese out of my cold, dead hands, and I also occasionally eat fish or meat.

You OK there buddy?
I'm just cheeseposting.
Please tell me you use arch.
I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re refering to as vegan, is in fact, arch/vegan, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, arch plus vegan. Vegan is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning arch system made useful by the arch corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
The people I know that are hard-core meat eaters are hunters who vastly prefer meat they've killed themselves (in a heavily regulated system that prioritizes sustaining the environment). I live in Alaska, though.
Yeah, I don't think that's the major demographic of aggressive meat eaters on the internet honestly.
Are there really people who make eating meat their “whole personality”? lol
“Whole” is a bit of a stretch, but I lived with a guy for a while whose whole personality seemed to be eating bacon (seriously. every day ate an entire pack of bacon - the expensive stuff too) and smoking weed.
As a guy that also likes bacon and weed, it became annoying as fuck.
Idk, but you'd think so based on some comments vegans get online lol
X Headline is going to trigger Y group
I found it funny, because it makes out that treating a plant badly makes it taste meaty in the same way that badly treated cattle are less nutritious and less good tasting than those which are free range on landscape like that they evolved on
Meat is only ruined if the animal is stressed during slaughter.
Prior to that, for large animals like cows, only the last three months of feeding matters for the quality of the meat. Far less time for smaller animals.
Treating animals well has absolutely nothing to do with the quality of the meat, except in the few moments immediately before slaughter. We should treat animals well on a matter of principle, and that's basically the only argument there is to it.
To be clear, I agree with that principle.
