Everyone should be vegan. It's great for your health, for the environment, and more importantly, it would save more than a trillion (yes, with a T) lives every year.
In a hundred years we'll look back and be ashamed of what we did to animals.
Being vegan neither means no life will die nor the environment will be spared. On the contrary.
All life on the fields including small mammals, animals like hares, mice and such and all insects in a normal multi culture will be killed and replaced by monocultures that are not good for the soil and do not exist naturally. You can’t call yourself vegan while pretending to save lifes. You’re just trying to spare lives that you care about. Probably cows and pigs. No animals lives forever. We need to make sure these animals live a good life before they are consumed.
We’re not meant to eat plants. No doctor will tell you you can live well on a vegan diet without any supplements.
Lmfao we aren't meant to eat plants. Holy shit my dude this is the worst take on this thread. Congrats you win.
Exclusively. Be my guest and just gorge yourself on plants only. Don’t run to a doctor if you get any issues.
I mean I hate to break it to you bud but like vegans exist. And have for a long time. Wait till you find out that large amounts of Indians have been vegetarian for generations
Vegetarian, not vegan. Essential difference. True Indians, that’s native Americans, were dieting mainly on meat in their prime by the way. Until the white men came and took all they had away from them, including their land and bisons.
True Indians? I'm talking about people from India dumbass.
Veg rage 🤣. I assume you're Indian. Please do yourself and a world a favor and get familiar with history, nutrition, common sense and a bit of etiquette.
Says the guy who forgot that Indians exist and have been existing as vegetarians for an extremely long time Just admit you're a fucking dumbass who doesn't know what the hell you are talking about.
I’m not fighting Pakis over the internet.
Wow fucking racism to boot. Jesus fuck. I'm also a white American you fucking racist shit.
A white American who doesn’t know how to read apparently. Typical 🤣. Hey, we all have our weaknesses. Some more than others.
And how didn't I know how to read you fucking racist? You're the one too stupid to know how to write. Fuck off racist.
If you did you wouldn’t write this embarrassing hate speech. First move out of your mom’s basement. Then go to evening school or how do you call it in Murica. Maybe learn a language or two. And learn the difference between vegan and vegetarian. Well, I won’t argue with dummies. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.
What fucking hate speech? You're the one being racist against people from Pakistan and India. Holy fuck you are delusional.
