    Oh ok so the dad is kicking him out for having been a part of something gross even though they changed their ways.

    See, idk, not that funny.

      the “but…” implies they have started doing the gross thing again. Imo it’s worse if someone recognizes something is bad, stops, then starts doing it again, they’re no longer ignorant but they still choose to do the bad thing

          As I explained above, the part I find funny is that it’s subverting the meme. Usually people rejecting their childs partner are doing it for bad reasons, like being overprotective of their child, or the meme usually puts in some random reason and it’s silly. In this case the meme has been subverted and it’s being done based on decent logic, while still retaining the silliness of an over-the-top reaction.

          it’s not a super funny meme, but it gave me a single breath out of my nose laugh

        Yeah, changed their ways as in went back.

        The but.

        It’s a funny analogy to make because they directly compared being vegan to watching dog fights.

        Someone who wanted to really dunk on y’all would maybe make a joke about brain function and nutrition.

        Instead I’ll just say “this isn’t how you change minds”

          What are you even saying? The meme isn’t comparing being vegan to watching dog fights, and the reason I used that analogy is because a lot of ethical vegans see not being vegan as similarly bad to watching dog fights, since both support unnecessary cruelty to other animals. Since most people are against watching dog fights, the analogy helps people see the meme from the perspective an ethical vegan sees it.

          Your lack of ability to understand what’s being said would be easier to dunk on lol also this meme isn’t really targeted at changing minds I don’t think 🤷

            You made the comparison. It’s literally your comparison.

            You compared them being vegan and stopping to watching dog fights, then stopping.

            I’m telling you the message is convoluted to begin with and your “understanding of the message” then explaining it in an inverse way similarly doesn’t work.

            The meme simply isn’t funny, the message is dumb AND takes parsing just to understand what they actually intend.

            Anyways, now that you’ve ran yourself in circles trying to explain why an unfunny meme is funny I’m happy to conclude our interaction.

              If you think a message against animal abuse is dumb, idk what to tell you 🤷
