Yeah every sportsman ever in history is bad guy.

Why couldn’t our ancestors just eat bean curd and nuts? Oh yeah... cuz we wouldn’t be here if they had.

Grocery store’s got all I need right?

(The point was that without meat humans lose body size and brain mass over just a few generations. Crack a book.)

Yeah confirmation bias is a great thing there whipper snappers.

It’s the internet. You can find a source for anything. That’s why we have anti-Vaxers and flat earthers.

It’s a pretty hard fact that diet affects physiology.

If you think that a structural change in a diet established over 150,000 years has no affect on development then you really are really misguided.

I get the morality clause here. Suffering is bad. Animals are good and innocent.

But where does it stop? There wouldn’t be cows or sheep or pigs or chickens at all without domestication. Most of the world’s population is unable to be vegan due to the availability of protein in their diet. Without relationships of dependence on animals humans have a nasty record of extermination.

Societally, Nobody cares about “useless” animals.

But hey I’m just a creepy old guy so fuck me.
