    if people eat it for sustenance it’s food

    that’s a pretty shitty definition of food which includes humans and dogs

        while we’re being all smuglord about definitions, let me point out that in English, the word “food” implies that something should be eaten, not only that it can be. for example, the classic finding nemo line, “Fish are friends, not food.”

          look man I don’t think this conversation is going anywhere so I’m going to disengage.

          Don’t call me smuglord when you were the one pretending to not know the meaning of the word meat

            im not “pretending” anything, im making a point about horrible crimes people here thoughtlessly commit. you’re the one desperate to prove you’re a big boy who knows the meanings of basic english words and “prove me wrong” about things that are not related to the point you and i both know im making.
