    Legality = morality

    Illegality = immorality

    It’s not that deep

      My dude, are you okay? Like, I get some vegans that have some polarizing opinions, but…hating them shouldn’t be the centerpiece of your personality.

      Your entire online presence seems to be entirely made up of video games and hating a lifestyle that isn’t even being forced upon you.

      I’m not vegan or strictly vegetarian, I have cut back on a lot of meat, mostly for environmental and dietary concerns. I don’t agree with a lot of the moral framework assumed by a lot of people on this sub. But overall, it’s completely harmless, and actually helps reduce a lot of the negative environmental impact of the meat industry.

      Also…“Legality = morality” is complete horseshit. All the worst crimes against humanity were all justified through legal systems .The Holocaust was legal under Nazi laws, chattel slavery was legal in the american south, even the rape of Nanjing was legal according to Japanese imperial law.

      Even if this absurd statement was correct, it doesn’t exactly help your argument at all. If Legality = Morality, and being vegan is legal… Wouldn’t that mean veganism = morality?

        things are getting heated, so truth to be told this is a satirical sub comm, we mock vegans and non-vegans alike, but most posters should be vegans, at least we were in the sub

            There must be a misunderstanding: I’ll shut up about the horrible things vegans and PETA do when the governments makes them both illegal. Until then I will fight for my right to be a member of People Eating Tasting Animals (did you see what I did there? ;)) and to uncover the aforementioned liars
