I can see how you’d think that if you didn’t make any attempt at all to understand what Angel was trying to tell you.

This is a discussion about piracy.

You’re the one who brought up veganism you complete fucking clown

Carnists don’t count

Insects, crustaceans, and mollusks do not have any form of consciousness.

I do not believe animals to be sentient

And why do you believe that?

I do not equate death or servitude with suffering.

So you wouldn’t have any objections if you were taken as a slave and worked to death, right? Because those aren’t suffering?

I have no issues with someone not supporting animal torture, but I take issue with self-righteous people such as yourself who can’t help but talk about how superior their choices are.

There is no functional difference between your original text and my bolded replacement. To be a carnist is to, through your actions, support animal torture.

Same reason vegans hate on omnivores - they’ve taken the high road and the benefits are small while the cost is high.

Nah, that’s not why we hate you

Wait, the goodies tell us. Wait for Albion. It’ll arrive. Just be patient. Well, Albion is a very old promise… and, whatever the panglossian liberal morality plays we call family entertainment may say, we’re still bloody waiting. At least the villains, unlike Merlin, are trying to kick up a stink about the delay.

You’re not beating the allegations

Communism allows everyone to pretend to have free stuff by declaring those that actually make it less than human, and thus less than citizens.

Your crops are picked by exploited immigrants, the coltan in your electronics mined by African child slaves, and the electronics themselves assembled on 14-hour shifts by sweatshop workers under capitalism. And you still have to pay for them.

What you’re describing are colonialism and slavery, both of which are time-honored, bedrock capitalist institutions.

Funny how on the rare occasion they respond to posts like this one, it’s to make a snide comment about Russian bots

“If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.”

The purpose of the “Russian bot” accusation is to use an unfalsifiable claim to avoid actually having to engage with someone’s arguments without admitting that you can’t rebut them

Since you apparently like Star Trek, here’s a video clip describing your situation

Where did the comment you’re replying to say this
