ecologically it's more energy efficient to consume plants because there's a lot of wasted energy in feeding animals

vegans tend to avoid animal products because they believe them to be unhealthy? and animal rights.

also something about since we're not dependent on eating animals we shouldn't

Is that supposed to be a good thing? You were dumb enough not to understand what whole foods are, meaning you never prioritized or valued them enough. I bet you eat tons of processed shit.

>I bet you can't stand cow milk
Enjoy your pus, exogenous hormones and arterial plaque. I bet you're the kind of moron who thinks pasteurizing gets rid of the literal shit in cow milk. Spoiler: it's still there - it's just sanitized.

Congrats on being able to say you're not picky at the expense of literally being a shit-eater. LOL. Shouldn't expect much of someone who doesn't know what whole foods are.

Okay, so you want me to be vegan. Let's see here.
>Animal rights, animal cruelty etc. etc.
I don't care, as long as I don't have to personally torture those cows, I really couldn't care less. Ever heard of out of sight, out of mind? I don't care about things that aren't in my vicinity. There are thousands of little brown kids starving in Africa, and I'd gladly eat those too, if they're nutritious and there was a food company immoral enough to deliver them to my local grocery store in a professional, discrete manner.

>You can get your nutrients without eating meat
Yes, but meat is tastier, more readily available and has no real drawbacks to me since I don't have to think about where it comes from, so why would I rely on nuts and shit instead?
>>
>>36864405
That's not a very good reply. You didn't answer the question. Do bugs have a right to live? Do plants? Or do you concede there is an order/value to certain beings and not others? And is that based on intelligence or something arbitrary?

>>36864424
I said I know what whole foods are you fag. Get off it. And you just proved my point. Your a germaphobe. You know you absorb shit all day when you're out in the world. Don't think you're pure because you're vegan. You're not. You still live in the same shit as anyone else unless you live out in the country so where in the middle of Canada you're breathing literal shit as soon as you walk out the door.

Again. I know what whole foods are and you probably are a picky little bitch eater too I can tell
>>
>>36864443
So what you want mate if eating animals makes you happy and feel good go ahead
But you are still pretty stupid
>>
>>36864424
Wow dude you're autistic. The current pasteurization methods in countries like canada actually remove about 99.9% of that shit. Go fact check your shit dumb fuck
>>
>>36864262
>Ok I can see that but there are other ways to do your part in this like public transportation and of everyone does a little that's better than one person doing a lot
How about a lot of people doing a lot? I don't get why people are content doing the bare minimum (assuming you want to? no offense if you don't, I get it). Also it isn't a lot, it's not really all that hard to do. And it's so much more effective than carpooling or whatever method of 'trying to conserve energy' you could probably think of

>I am a firm omnivore believer
Man can survive on plant based foods alone, but trying to survive on meat alone would kill you pretty quickly. you might think 'muh canine teeth', but most research suggests those are for biting through hard skinned fruits and vegtables like apples and whatnot. Gorillas have teeth sharper than dick but they're almost entirely vegan

>This is pretty good but you kill bugs don't you?
The difference between stepping on a bug and rasing and keeping a sentient animal that can feel basic (obviously not too complex, but mammals can feel basic) emotions in conditions that would get pet owners arrested for animal cruelty for a period of years (the creature's whole life) are just really really different. For that reason I eat honey, though most of my other vegan friends give me shit for it, that's really the only case in which the animals 'exploitation' isn't more cruel than stepping on a bug

You should actually just give it a shot! my friends kinda bullied me into it but once I did it it turned out to be very little skin off my back, and also it made me feel a lot better day to day, and my shits have been god tier since
>>
>>36864459

>>36864510
Also, about the omnivore thing, human digestion systems are way longer than 'other' ominvores, and even longer still than carnivores. The way our stomachs are laid out are closest in resembalance to herbivores. Also our bodies aren't meant to get too much cholesterol, whereas omnivores can eat enourmous amounts of it and carnivores can just pass it completely without accumulating any in their own bodies after consuming it
>>
>>36864158
It is fucking time wasting. It's already too much of a chore to prepare a meal where you can get easy proteins and everything else just by putting some eggs or chicken breasts, imagine having to do it by mixing a fucking ton of veggies?

>>36864553
Ok all good responses and I think that you're right that raising an animal to slaughter is different if you think about it that way. I think if I knew a cow I couldn't eat it and I think that killing cows is in a way murder. But I think there are so many fucked up things about life. I'm just going to do the best I can and try to abstain from meat as much as I can. But I'll still it eat it sparingly because I am actually afraid of malnutrition

You literaly pay the people that do it. That comparison makes no sense other than the fact that they're both objectively shitty things. One is completely out of control, but the other is something that you literally give people money to do. Read a book, or try to think more

That's a pretty non vegan stance, i'm an omnivore I eat meat. And I'm not the guy you're responding to.

But we totally abuse the shit out of bugs, we grab honey from bees', lets not forget silk, aboriginals gathered due produced by ants, and to be frank their are cultures who straight up eat certain insects.

You sound like a vegetarian who felt the word vegan either makes you sound older or helps you feel better about your choices.

That's at least something. And yeah dude, look up the way they make veal and shit, and the conditions dairy cows are subjected to. It's fucking horrifying.

"a "salad" would not be a good source of nutrients; in a half-pound of iceberg lettuce, you won't find any vitamin B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B12, folate, biotin, D, E, K, nor any chromium, copper, magnesium, manganese, selenium, or zinc."

beans:Vitamin A 0% Vitamin C 10%
Calcium 11% Iron 28%
Vitamin D 0% Vitamin B-6 25%
Vitamin B-12 0% Magnesium 44%

So, where is my B1, B2, B3, B5, B12, folate, biotin, D, E, K, chromium, copper, magnesium, manganese, selenium, or zinc?

>>36864793
Nitpicking the nutritional value of one meal, that's just more of a snack really, doesn't make sense. You really think it's not possible to get those from the countless other things vegans would eat through the course of a day? and if worse comes to worse, they could have a vitamin. I eat meat too, but come on.
>>
>>36864793

>iceberg lettuce

Is that what you normally have? I was thinking more like spinach, arugula, and beet greens. Let's go with kidney beans too. Of all the things you could claim the meal doesn't offer, a salad doesn't have vitamin K? You're trying too hard.

I dunno it typically varies, I'm in college so my schedule isn't very strict and I usually eat whatever I can within my 4,000cal range.
But I'll usually eat 3 or so avocados with a glass of soymilk in the morning, make myself a protein shake with penut butter bananas straw/raspberry, vegan protein power, spinach and almond or soy milk, there's a middle eastern place at my school so I get a falafel sandwhich for lunch, come home and make myself quesadilas or something whatever, make myself some either black or grbanzo beans and qinoa later, then after that maybe another shake or some penut butter from a spoon, or maybe more avocados. I sometimes make more, but I usually don't feel like cooking. If I'm really feeling lazy I'll go to chipotle, get extra black beans and then sofritas. It varies a lot day to day

That's a good question. Selfish people - at least mildly so - are the ones who get ahead, because they know what they want, they go out, and they get it. Why IS being selfish for weak people? Oh right, it isn't.

> why is doing what's easy instead of what's objectively good for the enviornment and doesn't require death a sign of weakness and cowardice?
Again, another good question. Why IS it considered a weakness to value your own precious time on this earth more than animals or the planet itself, which will remains LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG after you're dead.

> why is only caring about yourself a bad thing
Wow, three for three. That being said, most people don't ONLY care about themselves. People have loved ones. Parents. Partners. Friends. None of those people are getting hurt by eating meat.

> why would someone think that valuing no more than 20 minutes more of my day to prepare a meal differently over the lives of multiple animals is kind of selfish?

It's kinda hard for me to explain why doing what's esay because it's easy is weak when it's wrong and how it takes strength to do the right thing when it's difficult, because I never thought I'd actually have to. I kinda thought most people wouldn't need it explained to them. Regardless if you don't feel that eating meat is wrong, your refutal of the concept in general is mind boggling.

According to cronometer based on what I could plug in from what you said, you're at least significantly deficient in vitamin K and vitamin C (eat some vegetables, motherfucker), very low potassium, low fiber, borderline low vitamin A, low vitamin E, niacin deficient, and not really great intake of any other nutrient. And that's just vitamins and minerals, what you eat is total shit for other health-related things like phytochemicals/antioxidants (EAT some VEGETABLES) and very high in cholesterol.

In contrast, pic is one I plugged in for myself a while ago on a day just eating some bread, lentils, fruits, and vegetables. Overloaded all my nutrients and got tons of secondary benefits from the healthy compounds in all the plant foods.

>>
>>36865203
> doing what's esay because it's easy is weak when it's wrong
It's not wrong. You're not right. There's no right or wrong, simply difference in diet. If vegans would get off their fucking high horses for three-tenths of a second and stop going full Westboro Baptist Church on everyone who ate meat, they might actually get MORE people swapping over, since a ton of people would be put off by people like Freelee proclaiming that all meat-eaters should be killed, and then IN HER APOLOGY video, repeats her statement and claims she said nothing wrong. Those are the people, the YouTube identities, who are your public face.

I have nothing against vegans any more than I have anything against Christians. But keep it to your fucking selves. We get you're a vegan. We know. We fucking know. Because you post ten threads in fifteen minutes blowing your own horn about how amazing and healthy you feel. We just don't care. I could write a billion books, with a billion pages, with a billion words a page, and I would not be able to even begin to express how much we don't care that you're a vegan.

If we feel like it's time for us to change, then we will, with or without you.

But also yo I've never heard about that girl in my life, I have no idea who that is. To say that she speaks fo me in any way would be like saying that every muslim is represented by ISIS and that every athiest is represented by some greasy faced autistic fedora wearer

Have you ever read the rates and requirements on those? It's shit like having to eat 250g processed bacon every morning over your whole life to increase ass cancer percentage by 1%.

I mean, this peer reviewed analysis of 27 studies BTFO vegan positions:

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25941850

> the state of the epidemiologic science on red meat consumption and CRC is best described in terms of weak associations, heterogeneity, an inability to disentangle effects from other dietary and lifestyle factors, lack of a clear dose-response effect, and weakening evidence over time. KEY TEACHING POINTS: •The role of red meat consumption in colorectal cancer risk has been widely contested among the scientific community.•In the current meta-analysis of red meat intake and colorectal cancer, we comprehensively examined associations by creating numerous sub-group stratifications, conducting extensive sensitivity analyses, and evaluating dose-response using several different methods.•Overall, all summary associations were weak in magnitude with no clear dose-response patterns.•Interpretation of findings from epidemiologic studies investigating diet and health outcomes involves numerous methodological considerations, such as accurately measuring food intake, dietary pattern differences across populations, food definitions, outcome classifications, bias and confounding, multicollinearity, biological mechanisms, genetic variation in metabolizing enzymes, and differences in analytical metrics and statistical testing parameters.

How often does someone ask if you eat meat? I don't really think that comes up unless you somehow hint towards being a vegan beforehand...
>>
>>36865317
I wasn't ripping on you in particular, so don't worry. As I said, I have nothing against vegans. If we're eating and they go "I'm a vegan", or "I don't eat meat" and leave it at that, then no worries. Your reasons are your own, and I'm fine with that. But there are also those who think it's their God-given duty to be the Food Police and tell everyone else what they're eating wrong.

Freelee the Banana Girl and DurianRider are two of the biggest vegan personalities on YouTube. Check them out and make up your own mind if you'd like. Freelee seems pretty schizo, swapping from genuinely being friendly and trying to gently encourage people to change, to being a Tumblr-level rage-monster, on a video-by-video basis. It's really odd.

DurianRider just acts like a huge wanker in the majority of his videos, thinks he's emphasising a point by swearing eight times in a sentence and just acts like a holier-than-thou turbocunt where and when possible.

I'm no saying they're not fit, especially compared to me, because they are. But alongside their vegan diets, they also work out like crazy people, which, you know, I think would at least slightly contribute to their health and fitness.

PRO-tip, whenever you see "Alexander DD" in the authors list, it's a paper funded by beef producers. They'll say anything favorable to beef. It's basically an advertisement, not objective science. Every industry does this. Even the tobacco industry did this.

But the oldest living people on earth aren't vegetarians and the countries with the healthiest elderly are mostly filled with meat consumers.

Stating that's the same as paleofags going on and on about omega 3 6 ratios. It's correlated with healthiness but it doesn't seem to really fucking matter

>>36865448
It's not the telling me that you're a vegan that shits me, and indeed most people, off. It's the fact that some vegans can't seem to survive without reminding us every thirty seconds or so. Even if they don't say anything, THE MUST LET US KNOW, like rolling their eyes and sighing if we order something with meat, or complaining about how it stinks of dead animal really loudly, or just anything like that.
>>
>>36865417
The oldest people look like fucking shriveled up worms. Watched this thing on diners drive ins and dives where the big Guy F went to some vegan lace in new orleans and the woman who ran the place, who I swore was 40, dropped the fact that she was turning 70 in 2 months. It was mind blowing. People who eat meat age like milk

>>36865504
Don't care. Not my problem. If that's what got to into veganism, that's your deal. How you eat is up to you. What the majority of vegans don't get is that what I eat should be up to me.

If you're happy being a vegan, more power to you, dude.

My main point is simply that the majority of vegans think they're some sort of superhuman Gods because they don't eat meat, even though the impact they make on the meat industry and environment is negligible and perhaps in fact counterproductive, as people that might have been considering becoming a vegan see how they act and decide that they don't want to be lumped in with those sorts of people.
>>
>>36865557
>generalizing this hard
Ok bro you got us we are superhuman im sorry we make you feel insecure
>lol it doesnt make a difference why bother
Damn son nice logic
>>
>>36865557
I kinda don't get that. Just because leaving your lights on is negligible in the grand scheme of all the electricity that's used doesn't mean you should leave them on 24/4, or leave water running 24/7, or never recycle or something. A thousand little things is a thousand things, just like how every raindrop is equally responsible for the flood.
Also so what if some vegans are annoying? So are some athiests, and some liberals, and some convservatives, and some moderates. I bet you probably drink beer sometimes, but you probably don't get worried about being clumped in with frat boys, or others who drink. Every one is their own person, for the most part commonalities don't mean much.
>>
>>36865557
You have to look at it from their perspective. To them, factory farming is on par with the Holocaust or like Slavery. So of course they're going to protest it at every chance they get, it's a huge injustice to them.

That's why they have such a hard time with "just let me do what I want to do". Apathy doesn't promote change in the world.
>>
>>36865589
I said most people think that because the people who are your public identities are, by and large, absolutely fucking insane. I never said there weren't good ones among you.

>>36865650
Why are you comparing leaving lights or water running 24/7 or never recycling to eating meat every now and then? I don't eat meat 24/7, the same way I don't leave my lights on 24/7.
As for the second point, I get what you're saying and *I fucking know* there are normal people among you who are just normal people who don't eat meat. I know. I fucking know. I fucking get it. I've know several vegans, and they're fine. But by and large, society sees vegans as weedy, annoying shitheads who can't shut the fuck up. No, it's not great, but it's how you're seen, because as with most things, the loud voices of the few take precedence over the quiet voices of the many.

I don't worry about being clumped in with frat boys, because I'm Australian, which means I'm already my own drinking stereotype. I have the odd beer every now and then, but I don't proudly tell people how I don't drink X alcohol or remind people how superior I am because I drink beer.
In case you missed it before - I fucking know you're not all crazy turboautists who want all meat eaters to be killed. I fucking get it. Almost all omnivores get it. Personally, I think it's a shame that the vocal ones among you are also the most crazy.

i'm not him, but are you seriously denying that a great number of vegans are insufferable arseholes?
no one else feels the need to rub their diet in your face as much as vegans tend to do. not even the fucking muslims, they rub everything in people's faces, and even they don't have the nerve to lecture people about halal and shit. they just get on with it, as you should
>>
>>36865723
You shouldnt care about what other people are doing so much as to what makes the most sense to you being vegan made the most sense to me
>>
>>36865774
Dude that's kind of what I'm (poorly) trying to get across. The problem is that 'what other people are doing' is 'incessently hounding, bugging and annoying meat eaters because they think "if I piss them off enough, they'll listen to me and change their lifestyle!"'.

I care what other people are doing when what they're doing is annoying the shit out of me.

Here's mine

>go vegan after that

Just do your research anons

>>36865771
Im not denying anything sure there are bad/stupid but I dont say hey that person is an asshole and hes vegan damn that means all vegans are assholes and if I go vegan im gonna be an asshole too fuck veganism I dont want to be confused for an asshole see idc if peole think im an asshole cause of my diet I dont preach this shit in real life its pointless but I feel like here I can present good reason for it and maybe just maybe get someone to do whats right for them even if it is still eating meat atleast I gave you something to think about

>The problem is that 'what other people are doing' is 'incessently hounding, bugging and annoying meat eaters because they think "if I piss them off enough, they'll listen to me and change their lifestyle!"'.

To be fair, it's not like you're likely to suddenly come to the conclusion that you should eat a vegan diet when you've got no exposure to vegan diets or people arguing for eating vegan. Most of those guys hounding meat eaters used to be meat eaters. They changed their minds and are trying to get other people to do what they did because they believe it's a good thing that people should strive to do for several reasons. It sounds like you find it annoying because you've already decided you won't ever eat a vegan diet. If that's the case, annoying you doesn't matter to them, it's not like they're missing an opportunity with you. It's worth it to them to keep talking about it for anyone else who might listen and have an open mind to what they're saying.
>>
>>36865934
> I am annoying this person
> oh, there is no chance of him changing his mind
> I must keep annoying this person
But why though. If you mention it, and people are interested, they will ask. "Oh, you're vegan? How's that going? What do you generally eat? How does it make you feel?"

People show an interest when they're actually interested.

>>
>>36865977

>But why though

Because there's no reason not to. Either you'll eventually be interested and start paying attention to what they're saying, or you won't and they'll just have you angry at them which is no big deal if you weren't going to listen to them anyway, and they'll have put veganism in the public conscious even if it didn't personally captivate you. Atleast by talking about it all the time and everywhere, they've put it out there rather than having it kept out of sight/mind to where nobody would ever think about it. And, of course, plenty of those vegans had the same initial reaction of being annoyed and defensive. Here's a cool video about that by Jon Venus

> they'll just have you angry at them which is no big deal if you weren't going to listen to them anyway
Until they do it to a guy who has had enough of their shit and drops them. Which here in Australia, is actually pretty likely, now that I think of it. People get king hit for less. Funnily enough, get hounded constantly and being made to feel like you're less of a person because of the fucking food you eat might piss someone off.
