Im fearing writing this status as I know I could come off as a fanatical cultist vegetarian but here goes: I reblogged a video today discrediting some made-up scientific facts that people use to discredit vegetarianism. Upon doing so I go a lot of backlash claiming that I hate meat-eaters and that I think Im better than people for not eating meat. Now anyone who knows me will know this to not be true, and I pride myself on being a vegetarian who doesnt scream and kick out at everyone who doesnt follow my lifestyle choice. I really dont have a problem with people eating meat, someone sat beside me eating a chicken burger doesnt make me burst into flames, I dont plan on dousing anyone at mcdonalds with blood in the near future and I dont think that because I dont eat meat that Im more intelligent than other people. What I cannot stand is the lies people parade as facts to justify eating meat. To me, if you have to justify something, you shouldnt be doing it as theres obviously some insecurity or guilt or what not there. If you stand up and say I eat meat because I enjoy it that is as good enough reason as any to me for you to eat meat. What my issue was, and my issue will forever be, is people lying and talking crap where all the evidence goes against it. My target is liars, not people who enjoy a steak. Its 2013 now, and its still acceptable to say Im a freak - which I had today - because I dont eat meat, but for me to call out a blatant liar is wrong? I cant agree, and I hope in writing this I dont seem the crazed Peta-crazy vegetarian stereotype.
