long-time vegan here, this argument is as old as time.
is it ethical to kill? no.
do humans need meat to survive? no.
is animal agriculture equivalent to slavery? yes.
if you eat meat, deep down inside you know you're supporting: murder, rape, entrapment, torture, and slavery. that includes eggs and milk.
bonus fun fact: pigs are smarter than dogs
you are stating oppinions as fact
the humans not needing to eat meat one is a fact
Healthy humans, unfortunately.
//Seems like at least someone reading this, has not experienced trying to digest stuff like legumes, without a large chunk of their intestines.
Except for the humans with malabsorptive disorders, who can't get enough protein from plant based foods, humans with Achlorhydria, who need more bioavailable nutrients than a plant based diet can provide, and people with any of several conditions affecting the liver or kidneys that prevent the absorption of several key vitamins from plant sources, and people with ARFID who can't eat plant based foods.
Most humans don't need to eat meat, but the minority who do need to eat meat is a much larger minority than most vegoon evangelists care to admit to.
You don't get it. I literally have the disease that makes me die if I don't eat meat. Check your privilege.
you don't know what anyone else needs
yeah I guess that specific one maybe, but the rest is still true, he is just stating oppinions as fact and that's just not a good way to argue about anything.
Hey man if you're gonna be a debate club stickler the least you could do is be accurate in your critique
