I was specifically making fun of him saying that if plant aliens visited Earth, they'd be appalled at people eating plants. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQKCWxkepdI

He's a creep though, no wonder Reddit likes him so much.

What if Jupiter was inhabited by a superior race of intelligent shoes. And what if those alien shoes paid a visit to earth.

They would be absolutely disgusted seeing BelieveRevolt wearing trainers at the gym.

Oh shit, you got me, they'd also be really disgusted by that one scene in Who Framed Roger Rabbit?.

My b, I didn't have your knowledge of Tyson lore. This is so stupid that's it's hard to tell where to start and it's probably a waste of time to try to deconstruct anyway. He's just so used to riffing to celebrity fools that he doesn't actually think about anything except what will make him sound wise.

Thankfully I don't have that much knowledge of Tyson lore either, but I do know this clip because it's perfect dunking material for vegans.

I had forgotten about that, basically the nerdiest version of "There's studies saying plants feel pain! So really there's no moral difference between eating plants and animals, you moron, you fucking buffoon."
