I barely accept religious food preferences and now you want me to accept political food preferences? I eat anything and don't complain because I'm not a bitch and I've experienced literal starvation before.

What the fuck is this ridiculous amount of entitlement.

The ONLY appropriate reason for food variety in MRE's is allergies and so the troops don't go insane from the constant repetitiveness of one type of trash food over and over.

Some people don't want to inflict unnecessary suffering on animals. That's not being picky, it's a moral commitment.

That's an extended version of "I can't handle reality, let me pretend I care by telling everyone I don't eat meat"

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I think it's the meat eaters, who make every effort to hide the horrific conditions of factory farms, who can't handle reality. You never get as much excuse-making and projection as when you're arguing with someone about meat. It's pretty obviously motivated reasoning.

You're literally whining to a butcher.

Ah so you're even more personality invested in eating meat than a normal person. That's why I'm "whining" and you're so defensive about it. That makes a lot of sense!

[–] [email protected] -1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You eat and don't complain because you don't care about a thing, not even yourself. It's not something you should be proud of.

I understand you have literacy issues so I'll correct you and move on since I don't like spending overmuch time in dialogue with idiots.

As I mentioned I have experienced actual starvation, thanks mainly to the loving care the Canadian government puts in group homes.

Now, I don't complain because I'm not a bitch.

Once again, wrong on all counts and judging from your comment history you have very little likelihood of ever actually being right, but I digress, learn how to read, moron.
