....how do vegans know what meaty humans taste like?

[–] wander1236 94 points 7 months ago (3 children)

You could look at veganism as the practice of avoiding products from animals that can't consent, which doesn't necessarily take cannibalism off the table.

Well, that would make some very interesting "consenting" cheese.

Love me some queso de mamacita

Veganism is about not harming the innocent. Animals are capable of violence, but they cannot be evil (except for geese). Therefore a vegan is free to eat humans and geese, as long as they're evil.

Yeah but humans can give consent about the extraction process and how it is used after

Can a parrot give permission to each them?

A parrot mimics language but doesn't speak it.

They don't understand language. They can't consent. Like a baby the mimics words and we cheer when they get it right, but parrots never understand the words. Same with gorillas.

Are you saying we shouldn’t eat babies?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 7 months ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

Wait, we shouldn’t eat them or you’re not saying that?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago

Well, when a mommy vegan and a daddy vegan love each other very much...

[–] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago

Unlike sexuality, vegans aren't born that way. It's usually by choice later in life, and a lot of vegans grew up not being vegan.

Raw (2016) is a documentary about this
