No more danger than eating puffer fish. Avoid the brain and spinal tissue, you avoid the risk of a prison disease. Besides, if we’re talking about dangers to our health, veganism is quantifiably healthier and correlated with longevity.
And what do you mean “non-pet” dogs? Why wouldn’t you want to eat your pets? They live a much happier life before their slaughter, and it’s easier to manage the texture of their meat when they’re live-in stock.
You haven’t thought this through much, huh?
Going vegan is such a money-where-your-mouth-is move. If you’re left enough to know the damage meat eating causes, yet you still eat meat, how are you better than the industries you call out?
So much right wing bullshit is based on greed, yet left wing meat eaters can’t make the single most significant consumer change because “bacon too yummy lol”.
All these great left wing youtubers, as soon as I see they’re not vegan my respect drops in half.
You should try human flesh. There are some countries that humanely kill unadoptable children, their flesh is subjectively delicious, it’s an undebatable truth! And if that’s not to your liking, Elwood Dog Farm humanely slaughters all numbers of dogs for your gourmet pleasures. Debunk that, vegans!
Imagine being proud about a diet that’s destroying the planet. Even petrol companies pretend not to be ass holes.
Couldn’t that logic be used against literally any good action? Like giving $100,000 to a malaria charity isn’t going to stop malaria. If everyone thought like vegans, the world would be vegan, the climate crisis would almost entirely be averted, rivers swimmable, billions of animal lives saved each year.
If during your supermarket shop, you use vegan recipes instead, you’ll be one of those dominos. You could be the systemic change!
Added a parsnip to my vege soup this week, absolutely added a whole bunch of flavour, can recommend.

MechaGameZilla did an excellent video on the topic.
In the list there’s “unknown Iraqi male” who died by meteor shower, 19th century, not too far in.
Looks like those clowns in congress did it again! What a bunch of clowns.
I get your point, but it is blaming an imagined trans person for transphobia.
I mean, I feel like all the older generations said a good pair of shoes would net you $300, that’s gotta have increased with inflation now. It’s probably worth investing a LOT of money into good shoes if you spend a good chunk of life in em
But then why pirate the game?
A triple-A game is only available and free to you because people like me pay for it.
If everyone acted like you, the AAA game industry wouldn’t exist.
I’m not trying to be disparaging, but no pirate should be proud of their theft.
Tom Scott is insufferably uncharasmatic. Sure his content is excellent, but he’s stupidly unfunny, awkward to watch with other people on camera, and I imagine would be an absolute bore to talk to.
I’ll never stop recommending Mecha’s excellent video on the matter:
This is a weird comment.
I spent years fighting against veganism, and there was literally no valid argument against it beyond “I don’t care, I’ll eat animals anyway”.
There’s just nothing. Eating meat is bad for the planet, bad for the animals, and more often than not in western cultures bad for the human.
You did say “I love meat, let me assure you”. That’s pretty proud.
Firstly, other moral goods don’t rebuff moral wrongs. Owning solar panels doesn’t mean it’s morally okay to kill animals for your tastebuds.
“I don’t think me eating less meat will have much effect”. I mean, if everyone thought like you, global warming might happen. If everyone thought like vegans, (and went vegan today) we’d literally solve the climate crisis. Animal agriculture accounts for 40-60% of total emissions.
How can you be concerned about growing meat consumption in other countries? “Gee I sure hope people don’t act like me, that’d be concerning!”. Rules for thee.
That’s not to mention the antibiotic crisis where treatment resistant bacteria are developing in animals due to overuse in livestock. Or the development of animal flus like birdflu, corona virus, swine flu, ebola etc etc, which emerge from consuming animals.
You’re doing so much good, why not do the little extra step of going vegan? It’s so easy nowadays. Good for you, good for the planet, good for the animals. There’s no practical downside?
