(vegan)(arch) btw

Non-vegan playing devil's advocate, here; I've always hated that argument: Yes the chicken is already dead, but by purchasing the product, you're paving the way for more chickens to be killed to replace the one(s) you ate. Supply and demand. We need to come up with a better counter-argument.

Personally I'm not ready to stop eating meat, and probably never will be. I'm counting on lab-grown meat to come down in price enough to be produced en mssse within the next 10-15 years, and then I can enjoy all I want, 100% guilt-free. I will be among the first to buy it when it hits the supermarket.

What fallout character looks like Harry Potter?

[–] Artaca@lemdro.id 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Sorry, thanks. Why does that fallout character look like Harry Daniel?

[–] Gorillazrule@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

No no, the character looks like Daniel Potter.

[–] gedfromgont@piefed.ca 0 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Reminds me of Daniel Harry though.

[–] egrets@lemmy.world 0 points 5 days ago (1 children)

People always get Daniel Harry and Elijah Potter mixed up.

Didn't one of them marry a man made out of metal or something like that?

…What chicken nuggies take 20 minutes to cook?

[–] calliope@retrolemmy.com 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

A lot of them do in the oven. They’re way better that way.

[–] brucethemoose@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I think an air fryer has distorted my perception of cooking times, heh.

[–] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 1 points 6 days ago

And preheating!

Wouldn't it be more vegan-esque (?) to consume the chicken nugget and make use of it's sacrifice than to throw out an uncooked warm nugget?

[–] toomanypancakes@crazypeople.online 0 points 6 days ago (1 children)

It wasn't a sacrifice. The chicken didn't volunteer.

[–] RickyRigatoni@piefed.zip 0 points 6 days ago

If it didn't volunteer then why did it choose to be born food?

Lemmy users encountering a vegan: "How dare you care about what someone does in their private life?"

Also Lemmy users when someone mentions they still use Windows occasionally: "The clock tells the time. It is the time. THE TIME OF WAR."

oh lemmy has a sizable vegan percentage.

the problem is they became so militant, and abrasive to otherwise normal behavior, that they cloistered themselves to their own groups.

they don’t allow participation of the general population, yet don’t prevent their posts from reaching ALL causing immediate confrontation, and alienating themselves as an “other” to the larger collective.

it’s a shame because any sort of headway or mutual understanding of the horrors of how we treat livestock gets kinda overshadowed by personal attacks and righteous indignity. no real conversation on the issues happen as it turns into another circle jerk one one side, and a issue that is overlooked by the other as manufactured by our society.

I generally see some good comments from vegans (and non vegans) in these kinds of threads, but definitely also see some of the comments you've mentioned of "you are evil and immoral for doing this."

[–] WraithGear@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

yea, the ones that are not in the vegan safe space are not primed to, i hate to say it, virtue signal. it would not get so bad if they were not rave baiting all communities. but i do notice i don’t get meny cooking recipes from the vegan channels, must be talking about something else…
