There is something blackly hilarious about how many vegans are insisting they should be able to feed a cat vegan diets if they really really want to. (Blowup in outoftheloop)

Those people need to own rabbits. Or preferably no animals at all because they lack any sort of clue.

And if you disagree with them on the viability of vegan diets and cats youโ€™re โ€˜emotionally invested in them being wrongโ€™

Justโ€ฆdude. Donโ€™t own a fucking cat. Millions do it.

Itโ€™s like they donโ€™t care about the fact that cats are obligate carnivores.

Edit: in fact, they donโ€™t even know what โ€˜obligate carnivoreโ€™ means.

Thereโ€™s slews of 'em going โ€˜but supplements and this single study that mostly looked at dogs said it was ok!!โ€™

Likeโ€ฆjesus. Theyโ€™re trying to force an animal to go against its nature to suit their personal preferences and they do not see the hypocrisy. Get a fucking parrot you twonks

Love to see their reaction to chickens demolishing any rat they find!

My dog loves cucumber. But goes crazy for big meaty bones. Lettuce and celery result in a dog equivalent of a death stare. Iโ€™m sure he would throw them back at me if he could ๐Ÿ˜‚

The whole point of these restrictive diets is to go against nature.

Itโ€™s to weaken the body so that the spirit can take better control and live a purer life.

Theyโ€™re the types to give vegans a bad name.

I canโ€™t believe how much outrage there has been over this. It seems to be making rounds on the entirety of lemmy every couple days

Hi! Iโ€™m the mod that started this all! I think everyone who uses the phrase โ€œobligate carnivoreโ€ is outing themselves as a complete buffoon since it has literally 0 application to whether or not it is possible, which would be obvious if people looked up the definition.

But of course, that would be expecting a lot from people :)

Hope thatโ€™s oil or margarine on that popcorn! Chicken salt is fine though, amusingly it has no chicken in it. Weird name huh?

โ€ฆnah mate. Youโ€™re literally putting your desires over the animalโ€™s needs. Itโ€™s the same egotistical โ€œanimals must serve the desires of manโ€ schtick that veganism arose in rejection of.

Miss me with that bullshit.
