Based on the post they were spreading misinformation and being really unsightly, calling not vegans things akin to slurs like “meaties” or some shit. I don’t know the full story though.
Is “meatie” or “carnist” really a slur though? Those seem benign at worst and mildly accurate at best. Who is throwing a fit over that?
“No no, you have to protect the feelings of “meat eaters” and “carnivores” by using the full word.” ??? Like… why is this the hill people die on?
I agree that feeding a cat a vegan or vegetarian diet is still animal abuse, though. They’re not omnivores like us. They’re obligate carnivores, and pretending they’re not is abusive.

I did say akin to slurs, it’s not a slur no, it’s more comical than anything lol
okay, thanks
Vegans have hilarious nicknames, they seem to spend quite a bit of time on it
My favorite is “carnist”, make me feel like a dinosaur.
“Forbidden carnal knowledge” is my favorite
I think they use Carnist. Something ive definitely never heard anyone say in person.
