      Well, the first bullshit here is the word “purely”. While they indeed have a mainly vegan diet, they also opportunistically consume insects and even small mammals.

        Please fact check before posting, this is scientificaly inaccurate. Yeah they might eat a bug or two, but gorillas normally don’t eat other mammals.

      Well if the ants can do it, why can’t we?

      (Btw, I’m opposed to caged chicken egg cultivation, and even had my own chicken in the past before I couldn’t anymore for eggs. Now I just pay the premium and researched which were the most ethical eggs in the store available. Happy hens make better eggs anyway. I’m just pointing out we’re not the only ones that raise animals for consumption in nature).

      I can side with the vegans that the meat industry needs to be clamped down on hard

      But eating meat in of itself is not wrong, that is what is natural

        99% of vegans dont say eating meat in itself is wrong and this bullshit narrative needs to stop

        Edit: I wrote “in itself” to make it especially clear, but it seems people are skipping that part. The act of eating meat can not be evil, carnivorous animals do it for survival. The context is always what matters.

        Yo this seems to be a bad take

        I think something that defines humanity is that we really try not to follow the “rules of nature”, ie. the rule of the stronger over the weaker
