  • They’re easy to hate - They’re weird, eat funny foods, care about things nobody else does (who cares about chickens) and my god is there a subset of them that are the most truly obnoxious human beings (a statement that is, conveniently, true of every single group of humans). They’re basically furries for the non-internet crowd. Nobody ever interacts with them to know it, so they get defined by the strawmen people create of them.

    Edit: It’s possible my explanation of why vegans are disliked has touched a nerve. To clarify; I don’t think this, hell I eat vegan meals most of the time, but these are the qualities given to the Strawman Vegan that everyone onlines seems to love to hate. (I also quite like furries.)




  • In case anyone was curious what he actually said, I’ve transcribed the provided snippet of what can be generously called his “speech”:

    "You know they say you’re gonna vote with your stomach - I don’t know if you’ve heard it but it’s a little bit true. And groceries food has gone up at levels that nobody’s ever seen before we’ve never seen anything like it fifty sixty seventy percent. you’d take a look at bacon and some of these products and some people don’t eat bacon anymore. And uh- we’re going to get the energy prices down when we get energy energy down you know this was caused by their horrible energy … wind, they want wind all over the place, but when it doesn’t blow we have a little problem. This was caused by energy this was really caused by energy and also their unbelievable spending their spending is out of… out of wealth, actually, they’re taking our wealth away, but it was caused by energy and what they’ve done is they’ve started cutting way back […] "

    It seems pretty clear to me that he’s… talking. I think he was saying that high energy prices have caused the price of groceries to go up, and that high energy prices are the result of the biden admin “spending [us] out of wealth” (whatever that means). So, you know, not literally saying wind power caused people to stop eating bacon, but that uh… wait… no that is what he’s saying. Spending on wind power is directly causing the price of bacon to go up. I’m not… just. Fuck. Fuck fuck fuck.
