Top 5 bullshit militant vegan arguments
5. "Veganism kills less plants than omnivorism." WRONG. Because different lands can sustain different crops. Some are for animals and their food, some for our plants. Do sheep eat tomatoes? Do humans eat grass?
4. "Rape is karmic for women who wear fur because the conditions in fur farms are awful" Ok. Let's ban fur farms. But you can NEVER, EVER JUSTIFY RAPE, especially when it comes to clothes.
3. "You can't be a pacifist if you eat meat" NOPE. Jesus: "What gets inside someone's mouth doesn't make him dirty, what comes out of their mouth does" So, defending rape and bullying while not eating meat won't make you a pacifist.
2. "You are brainwashed by the system into liking meat." To any extremist who uses this, and they all use this, and only them: Translation: I have no arguments and can't possibly be wrong, I am always right! So a scapegoat which is allegedly behind everyone who disagrees with me must be brainwashing people. No, biology made us able to eat meat. And before anyone says that then, slavery is in biology too...
1. "Killing Jews for disagreeing with you is the same as eating pigs because you are hungry" WITH "anyone who disagrees with the above is like Hitler". Hitler would strongly agree with the above and kill anyone who said otherwise. Food is the most basic of needs, people who disagree with you don't affect you at all if they exist or not. All animals are sentient, but humans are also SAPIENT. They can do more than feel, they can also think... well, most of them anyway. Also, for anyone who compares the disabled to animals, fuck you, people who have an illness aren't separate species, they are PEOPLE.
Using Godwin for those who don't make these comparisons isn't just petty! It's also very hypocritical. No, those who DO make these are like Hitler.

Brie finds a man with toothbrush mustache yelling.
"Remember, there is no difference between Jews and pigs! Killing animals for food is violence, but killing all those undesirable people is vital for the Greater Good! And anyone who disagrees with us is brainwashed by the system! So, we should not respect people who disagree with us, but instead to our best to convert them, because true equality comes when everyone has the same beliefs! Time to take down the system for a perfect world! For the Greater Good!"
Brie approaches him. "You must be the greatest pacifist ever! Those humans who don't follow us are like Hitler!"
The man shoots her on the spot. "What's wrong with me?"

If so, four questions await you. Of course, NO character is totally useless or invincible, everyone can do something others can't.

A favorite weapon?
If you had any superpower, what would it be? (No reality warping or invincibility, please!)

Not biology. The moment she said "humans can't digest meat" she would be fired for incompetence. Neither history. She would say things like "Hitler never compared animals to people".

"The protagonist is always right, in spite of anything horrible they do, because they are the protagonist!"
Except in some cases...
"Asterix and Obelix are evil, because they eat boars!"
"Takara is a true Chosen One, she is vegan, and when she hits or abuses people they deserve it for being mean to her!"
And I can't imagine her teaching how to argue, even a child can beat her! "But I can't be wrong, obviously you are brainwashed by the system!"
