    Here on Lemmy I’ve been accused of torturing and raping animals as I’m unashamedly an omnivore

    I’m sorry to hear that. Online discourse does get extremely personal, particularly when people don’t know each other.

    I’ve actually worked on factory farms and know firsthand the suffering of animals under that system

    Well then… not to be rude but that means you’ve literally been complicit in torturing and raping animals.

      There it is.

      So, as an ignorant teenager, cleaning chicken houses of rotten corpses and chicken shit for $5/hr: I was actually fucking those chickens? I was kid chicken raper? The steers I raised in elementary school, I suppose I fucked them as well.

      See, that’s the thing. I saw how bad it was and have worked and saved for many years so I will no longer have to participate in a system that involves industrial suffering.

      But nope, I’m totally such a raper. Fuck you and your sanctimonious bullshit. You don’t know me or my circumstances. I know plenty of Southern Baptists and Church of Christ that spew this same shit. Y’all would get along real well, if you only listened to your tones and didn’t pay attention to the words.

      Fucking fanatics can suck my fucking balls, all y’all the same.

        I would like to think “I saw the horrors and really learned something” would be the appropriate response, not “I saw the horrors, so now I’m immune to criticism for eating meat.”

        But I do begin to see why vegans upset you so much.

          If you’re trying to make a point for there not being as many “crazy vegans” on the internet, well, you’re fucking it up.
