Owl: Stop Your Condescension Rant, Please

Bonjour, my bunnies,
My first actual blogging post 
I have decided to do a thing where my main topic, should I have one, will be in a particular color that is different from the rest.
Okay, so I'm going to rant about something that really bothers me.
And that thing is vegans.
Now, I personally love the vegan choice, it's great that there are so many people out there who feel strongly enough about saving animal lives and protecting creatures from the slaughterhouses.
What I am bothered by is when vegans shame those who don't follow their lifestyle.
And again, it's not that I think slaughterhouses are right, or that it's morally correct to kill and eat living beings. It's just that I believe it is part of nature, and I would not give up eating meat and the like.
And many vegans are very respectful, that's true, but seriously?
There are so many vegans who are like "you awful asshole, you would actually do that? I would never kill an animal and eat it. gosh, we're like, one and the same with that creature. you're such a barbarian, and there's nothing respectful about stabbing animals, so no, i'm not going to respect that it is a personal choice"
 COME ON WORLD. Give it a rest.
I will reiterate, killing animals really is not that respectable or amazing, but it is a fact of life. Plenty of other animals do it, and some are even cannibalistic. You might say "be the bigger person, and stop!" but I really feel like the presence of predation, carnivores, omnivores, and herbivores are part of this world. You can't have just one. You need them all.
And so ends my lovely rant against vegans who think they're better because of a personal choice that no one should be forced to make.
Hopefully next week will be more interesting, but we shall see.
Until next wednesday, my nightowl babies,
Owl

  1. Wow I didn't even see that you ranted too high five xD and yeah I agree I've met condescending vegans and it's not good, though I do definitely admire them.
