In my experience, no one lectures you more than a meat eater when you tell them you don't eat meat. Like bruh you could have just dropped it and moved on, now it's been an hour of you telling me about how bacon and ground beef are like 90% of your personality and you'd die without them, and don't you know humans are predators who evolved to eat meat?

This is true in my experience. I have a medical issue that makes it difficult to eat most meats and no matter now many "I can't" and "it was literally killing me" I say they still come back with "well I would anyway. Cool, you do you but I'm not gunna die because a bacon triple cheeseburger sounds tasty.

I feel like I should also mention that if you're single it's also an issue, why people feel the need to put it in the profile of a dating app that's let's be honest a hookup app is beyond me.

Yeah i also hate people who wear it as a personality. Its fucking disgusting to go to a vegan and describe with disgusting detail how processed meat is made and then tell them that you eat it all day(actually happened to one of my friends) and to circle back to my comment, meat eating: 👍 meat eaters: 👎

It's not us vs them or me vs you. There are no "teams". We're all just people sharing our experiences. I'm not accusing you of anything.
