    Why are posts here always focused on meat

    Edit: Wow sorry for asking a question. Like a bunch of dogs growling when someone looks at their food bowl.

      Thanks for engaging with my post. I’ve posted two meat dishes and two vegetarian options this week.

      If you want more vegetarian options than what you’re seeing then you’ll have to post them.

      Because it’s a major food source that our species has consumed since the beginning of (our) time

          Anyone supporting eating meat come [sic] from an insanely privileged perspective

            Kaj, go away man. Your opinions are wildly niche and don’t deserve to ride on the coattails of my post.

            In fact, you are actively helping this post reach a wider audience by engaging with it and driving me further towards the top of All. If you want to see this post do worse, quit commenting and voting on the posts in it.

              Defending the victims of horrific abuse violence is always worth it, even when niche!

                This is the highest engagement I’ve gotten on any post I’ve made so far. Thanks for helping to keep me at the top of Hot. Not sure how promoting a meat post really accomplished anything other than keeping meat at the front of everyone’s minds but thanks again!

            Please stop. You are actively hurting the cause. Being combative, dismissive, rude, and condescending turns people away, and makes them hate vegans and veganism. By your words, it is clear you don’t actually want to convince people to eat less meat. You are just stroking your tiny ego. Seriously. Stop.

        It’s also abusive and destroying the world. We could do better by not promoting it

            Yep. Have you died of co2 poisoning in a gas chamber before? That’s how bacon is made

                It’s made from pigs, actually. You claimed to know that the flavor was worth the cost, but apparently don’t know the cost! Why would you make such a claim? Hopefully you wouldn’t do such a thing to justify any action you like doing, right?

                  Joined a month ago. -32 points. Can you imagine how ridiculous it would be if people that ate meat embraced the same type of online identity as you and every single post was about eating meat lol?

                    Yes, this account is topic specific. Great detective work!

                    To answer your question: I don’t have to! There are tons of accounts like that on reddit, and now even some here on lemmy! You realize there are more meat eaters than vegans, right?

              I’m pretty sure bacon is made in a myriad of different ways ranging from humane to abusive. Settle down over there and if you want to argue your stupid point that hUmAnS ShOuLdnt eAt MeAt at least use facts

                    Sure, killing can be humane. E.g. voluntary euthanasia. Do you think that bacon comes from voluntary euthanasia?
