grand, nobody needs to hear about your cause when they're trying to shop, they aren't all slaughterhouse proprietors (and most of them don't care about eating the same stuff humans have done for hundreds of thousands of years)

I get what vegans are trying to do, I really do, but man are they tone deaf.
Pissing people off is not the way to get your point across, neither is blaring nin their ears with a megaphone.
Having said that, being violent against vegans also does not solve anything. I get the sentiment, but you're onlyaking yourself look like a shit bag in front of the whole world.
Vegans: find better ways
We're still right though
Easter lamb? Did Jesus love young sheep as much as he liked chocolate eggs?
You are mistaking him for Saint David.
Rubbish, I can tell the difference between Saint David and a lamb.
Because you couldn't eat a whole Saint David in one sitting?
Fucken well deserved
Using a megaphone indoors in a store should considered assault. My child and spouse both have sensitive hearing, if someone was within a couple meters of them and shouted into a megaphone it would instantly reduce my child to tears and cause pain and distress, and my spouse would probably drop anything they were holding from the shock and pain of it.
You sound like animals that are getting slaughtered. Except they are in even more pain and end up murdered.
Maybe if people stop the murderous selfishness towards animals, people don't have to pick up a megaphone to educate you.
So your solution is innocents being harmed is to harm more innocents. Nice.
Harming is a big word of course when you can just walk away from the megaphone. But I don't really know how playing the victim works so I don't know.
IF YOU GUYS ARENT NICE TO ME IM GOING TO CONTINUE THE MASS SLAUGHTER OF SENTIENT LIFE AND DESTRUCTION OF THE PLANET ๐ค
Carnists get so fucking mad when you point out that they're eating literal dead babies. Fucking snowflakes. You don't like being reminded you're eating the corpse of an adorable baby? Well, maybe you should stop doing it then, no one is forcing you to eat animals, you can literally just not do it
I don't find sheep adorable. They're also quite smelly. Cats however, are super adorable. That's why I don't eat them. Sharks? Ugly af, right into the soup pot.
Mushrooms are adorable though. You are a monster if you eat mushrooms.
Have you considered it's your condescending tone and obnoxious tactics that annoy people? He certainly wasn't right to smash up the megaphone - but I'm willing to bet the "carnists" really do understand they're eating dead animals and literally don't care.

It isn't. It doesn't matter how vegans act, carnists are annoyed about our very existence. You can pretend you're only annoyed at the "obnoxious" vegans, but I've seen enough carnist rage to know it doesn't matter how kindly a vegan tries to advocate for veganism, it won't work, and will very likely get the vegan yelled at. Seriously, look up Earthling Ed's YouTube channel, watch how patient and kind he is with the carnists he talks to, then think about the fact that this sweet, kind, gentle man has been punched in the face more than once by people angry that he's a vegan arguing for veganism.
Also see your need to come set me straight two whole days after I made my comment. I'd forgotten about that thread and the comment I'd made in it, but you read it and just had to comment, an entire two days later.
If you try to advocate your ideology to random strangers going about their day, you will get yelled at. Doesn't matter if you're advocating for veganism or for Jehovah's Witnesses. I've never once yelled at a friend or acquaintance for talking about veganism during casual conversation.
Most full fledged carnivores I know, which are very few, are the most mellow and relaxed people I've ever met. They genuinely don't care what other people eat. They would get, rightly, annoyed if someone was causing them hearing damage while they were out doing errands, however.
In my neighborhood a butcher shop is next to a Buddhist temple, and they get along just fine.

Are you hanging out with tigers or something? Humans aren't carnivores.
They can be if they make the choice, but its a difficult diet to pull off since sugar and carbs are everywhere.
But yes, of the people who are eating only ASF, they are very chill and relaxed, in my experience. Like we don't hold meetings talking about protesting the green grocers.
Ah yes, tone policing, the least snowflakey debate tactic.
I'm not dismissing the argument because of tone, I'm pointing out why people find this annoying. Do you not find it annoying when condescended to?
Why can't this shit happen where I work? It would add some excitement to my boring job.
