Some kinda head tilting quotes:
One more thing. They set up grief counseling for those who had a piece of red meat touch their cheeks AND those who endured watching the uncooked bovine slices flying through the air. Afterwards they climbed into their EVs and headed to their tree houses. It is California, you know.
Of the dozen or so victims of Brewer’s, 3 were sent to the local hospital with superficial wounds. Most of the injuries were of the emotional variety and all of the victims had a chance to speak with grief counselors. A candlelight vigil is planned for this coming weekend is hopes of raising positive vibes to heal the community.
Couple that with “larry’s secret garden ojai” not apparently existing.
It’s not not the onion
I found this on the About section of the page:
Daily News Reported is a fabricated satirical newspaper and comedy website. Daily News Reported uses invented names in all its stories, except in cases when public figures are being satirized. Any other use of real names is accidental and coincidental.
“Comedy website”
So yeah this is fake.
Now I’m curious what these superficial wounds were.
Light bruising most likely.
Thank you lol the first thing I thought when I saw was no way this real?! While laughing because look, that’s just a funny headline to read out loud. Seriously, read it aloud to someone.
Not cool. I fucking hate vegans that try to guilt and convert people as much as I hate these idiots that think this is cool. Let people be.
I’ve never met a vegan that does that but I’ve met plenty of guys who do it with meat. Dull fucks that made meat part of their identity
In my experience, people who complain about preachy vegans are far more prevalent and annoying than the preachy vegans.
But have you heard about CrossFit?
Some of my relatives had to give themselves rules about when they could talk about cross-fit, that’s how bad it got 🤣
I only met one guy who was very insufferable like 10 years ago. He was a friend of a friend and i had nothing to talk about, so at one point i just asked him what his favorite meal was, because he was aggressively vegan. He told me what he liked and i said: that sounds very good, i have to try that, i try not to eat meat products anymore. And he suddenly had that disgust in his face and said: eating meat is like molesting a child, once you did it, you are a child molester.
Okay, not talking to you again.But other than that, i think every vegan i know is just like: yeah no i’m vegan. Or: is there a vegan option?
I was at my dad’s birthday dinner last month and i don’t really like any of his boomer friends. He made some traditional 90% is just meat dinner. Even when i still ate meat, i always found that kinda gross. It’s so much, greasy artery clogging stuff that doesn’t even taste that good.
But like 3 different people there at random times found it really funny to yell out:“thank god there are no vegans here.”
Like what is that even supposed to mean? I’m vegan and i didn’t say shit to anyone.You’re apparently lying because literally every vegan I meet online is extremely preachy. I have never come across a vegan that isn’t preachy, and if they say they aren’t, a quick look into their comment history proves otherwise.
Like I don’t care what anyone’s dietary choices are; if you choose not to eat meat for whatever reason - and I do believe vegans’ justifications for not are sound - that’s awesome, feel free to share that fact, but don’t fucking guilt anyone into feeling bad for their dietary choices. You’re as obnoxious as people shouting that abortions are evil.
literally every vegan I meet online is extremely preachy.
uhh… you do realize that the non-preachy ones just won’t talk about it? How would you even know they’re vegan?
You’re right. I should clarify that pretty much every vegan I’ve met that says they’re vegan has been preachy. But that’s kinda besides the point. You can absolutely say you’re a vegan but not be preachy. I’m interested in hearing what vegans have to say so long as they don’t:
-
act higher and mightier than anyone else because of their beliefs.
-
use language that suggests people who eat meat are murderers.
-
suggest that everyone quitting meat would slow down climate change, because although it would be nice, it’s not at all realistic.
And so on…
But as I’ve said, every vegan I’ve come across that openly claims to be a vegan has spouted one of these points, and comes across as preachy and judgemental, even if they have good intentions.
“I’m fine with discussing veganism as long as the vegans stop making objectively true but uncomfortable points.”
The first point is obviously subjective (and your interpretation) but the other two are facts. Animals need to die for you to be able to eat them and somebody intentionally killed them in order to sell them to you for consumption. Calling this murder is a bit polemic but not factually wrong as it’s an intentional and pre-mediated killing - the thing we call “murder”. And yeah, if everyone stopped eating meat, climate change would slow down because fewer resources would be spent on breeding and raising cattle. It’s a scientifically proven fact and also kind of a no-brainer. You don’t think people will stop eating meat but that doesn’t make the point any less factual.
I do eat meat, by the way. I just don’t deny uncomfortable facts and don’t get angry at people stating them. This is exactly what I meant when I said your guilt is your own. You know these facts are true but you don’t want to confront that. This makes you uncomfortable to the point that you lash out at vegans who you perceive as guilt-tripping while they’re just stating facts.
Just because a point is factual does not make it worth discussing or mentioning in an interesting convo. If everyone stopped driving a 1-2 ton personal metal brick on wheels and started biking climate change would also be slowed, or if half the population died right now it would also be slowed, or if the sun exploded. Who cares? These are not realistic solutions to that problem so what is the reason you would bring it up when discussing diets? Is the reason to inform? It just seems to me like someone mentioning “murder” and “if no one ate meat” while discussing diets is not looking for useful conversation.
You mention the difference is in believing it to be possible. I believe that meat harvested from slaughtered animals will someday be a rarity, but not soon enough to be (part of) a real solution for climate change. Lab meat is just now hitting consumer stores, and climate crisis is on our doorstep.
It sounds like you already have counterarguments to those two points. Why not make them in a discussion instead of refusing it outright based on what you perceive as weak arguments? I’m not vegan and won’t argue about the merits of these arguments, my only point is that it’s unwise to refuse a discussion unless your opponent adheres to arbitrary rules you postulate.
As to your second paragraph, I think you’re referring to a different commenter. I don’t believe I made a point about believing something to be possible. Please do correct me if I’m missing something, though. I do agree with you here. Lab meat won’t save the climate. But, to be fair, that wasn’t your original point which talked about forgoing meat consumption altogether. Which I don’t believe will happen since we can’t even reduce car sales but it could definitely be part of a solution for climate change.
Sorry mate, vegans can’t change the reality of what it means to eat a dead animal. I’m sorry it hurts your feelings that you’re a carnist, maybe if you want to stop being guilt tripped by reality you could stop being a carnist

I think a lot of the guilt you’re feeling is your own and not created by these alleged vegans. I know a lot of vegans and also vegetarians and they’re almost apologetic about their dietary choices. Of course, both your and my experiences are anecdotal but I find it hard to believe a vegan actually actively tried to guilt you into anything. Which isn’t to say their mere presence causes you to feel guilty about your eating habits.
Nope. I saw it all the time on reddit and I’ve already seen it on lemmy. The guilt is definitely, 100% not my own. That doesn’t even make sense.
And no, their mere presence doesn’t bother me at all. I understand why vegans feel the way they do, but it doesn’t change the way I personally feel about eating meat. And I definitely don’t continue to eat meat to spite vegans either. It’s just something that isn’t a big deal to me - and saying such a thing will definitely offend some vegans.
I’ve been on reddit for more than a decade and that’s not my experience. Maybe you’re particularly sensitive in regards to dietary choices and the opinions surrounding them? Or maybe those posts you’re referring to are not actually meant to guilt-trip you?
Saying you don’t care about something others care a great deal about obviously is going to offend those people (see also: Religion). Being offended isn’t the same as guilt-tripping, though, and it’s a far cry from being “as obnoxious as people shouting that abortions are evil” or “being a cunt”. These comparisons alone suggest it’s a little bit of a deal to you. That, of course, is just my interpretation reading two of your comments and is in no way meant to be a judgment of your character or person, I’m just trying to convey what comes across on my end.
Nope, definitely not sensitive to dietary choices. Just like people have the right to do what they want with their bodies, people have the right to eat what they want witbout judgement as well.
It’s funny you mention religion though because I have definitely seen quite a few connections between veganism and religion: stemming from beliefs, preaching, attempting to convert, etc. And yes, I used abortion as an example because it’s a solid link between the two.
I’m not sure what you’re trying to say or do really. You’ve made a fair amount of assumptions about me (not judgementally though) and I don’t really see the point? All I’ve said is that pretty much every vegan I’ve come across has been preachy and attempts to guilt trip. If you’re trying to prove me wrong, you’re not doing a great job at it.
The fact that you’re seeing “a solid link between” veganism and anti-abortionists makes me not want to continue the discussion, sorry.
I believe my point was rather clear, though. You claimed that “literally every vegan” you met online is “extremely preachy”. I do not believe that and told you about my experience on which I’m basing my objection. This is generally known as a discussion and its point is to share opinions and generally interact with other people. The fact that you’re interpreting this as an attack shows that this is a very emotional subject for you. Another reason, I don’t think this discussion is worth continuing.
Yeah! Everyone has the right to eat whatever they want! I love eating carnists and nobody has the right to guilt trip me for it
*writes blog post stating its not people who identify as meat eaters who are the fundamentalists
Post content: “You’re fucking lying!! Vegans are 100% the problem. Theyre fucking guilting me, no better than an anti abortionist piece of shit cunt fucking see it ALL THE TIME!!!”
I never said vegans were a problem, nice job putting words in my mouth. I’m really glad to see vegan supporters literally attempting to erase vegan guilt tripping that happens so often that I’ve seen it multiple times, and I’m not the only one to complain about it. Google “why are vegans so preachy” and you’ll get a decent amount of posts complaining about it. It’s not some strange phenomenon like you’re making it out to be.
Lol… holy shit dude. Super stable post. Don’t forget to check under your bed at night for preachy vegans who are coming to get you.
Non preachy vegans don’t tell they are vegan unless the conversation goes that way. Why would you? I don’t care what you eat and I know you don’t care what I eat.
Preachy vegans also annoy other non preachy vegans. And the one example of preachy I knew was not a good vegan.
Look I’m fine with anyone who doesn’t force their dietary choices onto others. I hate vegans who try to force carnists to conform to their lifestyle, and I also hate carnists who try to force cows to conform to their lifestyle.
daddy chill
This guy is absolutely a douche and should not exist but goddamn does it make for a funny headline though
…What a dick
I thought “not the onion” wasn’t supposed to be satire, except I don’t know if this even counts as satire, this is just dumb. Literally the same joke, every time.
This is the sort of fantasy right wingers imagine themselves pulling off in the name… I dunno freedom?
Exactly.
“Owning the [insert taste of the month]”.
It’s the same exact shit as "how can you tell someone’s vegan? - THEY’LL TELL YOU ABOUT IT!!!, yet in my entire 30+ years of life I’ve never heard anyone ever say they’re vegan or vegetarian or anything unless asked about, but I have a feeling I won’t stop hearing someone announce that they eat meat AND MEAT ONLY or some shit like that until I die.
Shit got tired before it even started, because it’s just the same old shit in a different wrapper.
Wait…I thought the onion was satire and ‘not the onion’ was news so pythonesque it looks like satire?
No that’s it exactly, lol, we’re getting lost in a jungle of double-negatives.
- The Onion - satire
- Not the Onion - things that happen that are so outlandish you’d think it is satire
- This - Neither, cause it’s someone making shit up, just some conservative asshole flogging the same dead horse with the same, tired old

Roger Waters needs to calm the fuck down
Pink floyd are almost certainly more woke than this joke.
“How can you have any pudding if you don’t eat your meat?!”
He wasted those ssteaks :(
What an absolute madlad!
police fear copycat crimes may start popping up and they asking the community to band together in solidarity against these “terroristic attacks”. Clinton Brewer is currently being held on $10,000 bail at Ventura County lockup
This has to be a joke, right?
If its true, someone set him up a gofundme so the 73yo can have a short and successful career as a comedian.
Bruh was assaulting people in order to pressure them into paying for murder and slavery. Bruh is an asshole.
I found this at other sites too. https://hhjonline.com/eat-your-meat-p19251-189.htm

WTF!
