omnivorous grumbling
there's a certain type of evangelical vegan i am very tired of - the one who is genuinely shocked that meat is critters and thinks that's a secret that has been kept from people and all they need to know to change their minds
there is definitely stuff that gets lost in factory farming, and having it all processed - but also -
bruh? if you are surprised about what chicken is and you're over the age of 12? that's kinda on you
omnivorous grumbling
similarly, if it's shocking that chicken is chicken, i'm not gonna trust in that dude's in-depth critiques of any farming system since he apparently just realized farms existed like two days ago
and i know with great surety that due to privilege, he's not bothered to learn anything about cooking beyond the superficial
because wtf did you think the giblets came from in your chicken roast, eh? that they make harvest vegan chicken hearts and put them in there for kicks?
omnivorous grumbling
but honestly this type is also the sort to accuse you of eating a baby every breakfast because you had scrambled eggs
and not be talking about the cost of factory-farmed laying hens etc etc
nope they just freak out because egg must equate to cute baby chicken, and refuse to think any more on the subject, while directing all their ire at *you* because you got a boiled egg in your lunch
...it's some of the most city slicker bullshit i think i've ever heard

I once made the mistake of mentioning that I kind of wanted to have a deer farm to my vegan SIL and of course as a result I had to mention that it would likely be a venison farm and she was like "but don't you like deer?" and I was like "er, yes, that's why I would want to have a deer farm?" and she was like "how can you KILL them if you LIKE them" and I was like, I regret all of my choices that led me to this conversation
