Veganism
August 10, 2024 at 3:18 pm
(This post was last modified: August 10, 2024 at 3:37 pm by Disagreeable.)
I have a brother who is vegan. I greatly admire veganism. I think it's morally virtuous. But I don't care enough about morals to be vegan. I'm a personal and psychological egoist (even though I'm not an ethical egoist).
What are your thoughts on the matter, dear reader?

Vegans taste of tofu.
Not good for cannibal barbeques.

I wish it were possible for people to be vegan and shut the fuck up about it.

I have vegetables with a meal, not for a meal

My mom, who is vegan, was like "Now I can look a lamb in the eyes without feeling guilty."
My reaction was "Oh please."

To each his own.
For me, there are other matters of greater significance to take a moral position on.

My boss is a vegetarian but leans vegan.
I simply don't want to give up cheese or bacon.
The less the vegans consume, the more for the rest of us.
