Its funny. No one criticized me for owning cows. At all. The woodwork was empty. I get that there are militant assholes here, but every time i bring up my profession, things have been cordial.
We can all disagree on a lot of things, but the average vegan is not my enemy. Ive even given some tours of my facilities. Its just someone that thinks different thsn i do. Thats perfectly fine.
Good discourse and an open mind is all it takes. I eat vegan meals frequently. I also eat steaks and eggs and fish. I will never be the one to shut down sincere discourse. We all have to live in this world together. May as well learn from other perspectives.
I'm honestly surprised by that. Those types of vegans give me shit because I do not eat meat but I will have dairy. I am under a dietician's care and she has it as part of my nutritional regimen but it doesn't even matter to them when I tell them that I could literally starve if I don't follow her instructions since that's exactly what was happening before I met with her.
