... people are vegan precisely because they don't think we should derive our notions of morality from random observations of charismatic megafauna.

what on earth gave you the other idea? it's always carnists that are like "see you have stubby little canines, eat meat" or "see lions eat the children of a pride when they take over so we should... wait fuck I mean lions eat gazelles alive sometimes so, wait sorry I'll get it. Lions eat meat and are good role models as previously established so you should too"

I too suggest medical intervention when someone speaks about a subject I'm not emotionally mature enough to engage with.

As a general rule as soon as you start making up words like “carnists” and trying to insert them in regular conversation, you’re probably very deep down a rabbit hole and need to strongly consider the life choices that got you there.
