Why Do Meat Eaters Take Aim At Vegetarians?

Simple and very efficient: repeat the question over and over again until the guest activist finally gives an answer! Grab them by the balls… or the other thing here. perusal from Germany, wishing we had more TV people the calibre of Piers. Thank you in the name of the vast majority, the meat eaters!!!

Actually he’s absolutely right. bees are way more important than cows. bees are the principal pollinators of the flowers and other vegetation. without bees we would definitely have an ecological catastrophe leading to starvation and possible wars for food. She literally has no idea what she is talking about

She’s memorised what she’s been coached to say. Exactly like a telesales person. As soon as you interrupt their spiel, they restart at the same point the BS was interrupted and carry on, or try to. There is never any free thinking type of conversation with these people just the speech they’ve memorised.

The biggest issue with this is that it’s a complete waste of time. We’re never going to transition to a plant based food system. We’re not a dictatorship where the government will take away the rights of millions of people who like to eat meat. We will always be a society where people can choose what they eat, what religion they are, which political party they follow etc. These idiots need to stop trying to dictate to others what the rest of us can/can’t eat

For the record: Their idea that animal agriculture is a leading cause of climate change is based on a faulty study from like 2007 where they compared Animal Ag to Transport, they took the lifecycle emissions of Animal ag but only measured the tailpipe of transport, and even one of the authors came out and admitted the flaw in their study. No, cows existing in the ecosystem where there is a carbon cycle is not causing climate change. About 4% of emissions are from animal ag. Humans digging hydrocarbons out of the ground and burning it is causing climate change. Methane in the atmosphere has a half-life of 9 years before it is destroyed, and about as much methane is destroyed each year as cows produce. Also, we feed these animals ugly fruits we don’t want to eat or parts of plants to ruminants that are inedible like stems and leaves. Only 10% of the food these animals consume are edible to humans. They turn those in to quality nutrients we can use, it’s about efficiency. If we gut out animal ag we will just have a lot of plant waste. Plant waste already makes up the bulk of food waste. We don’t give cows the soybeans or rice themselves, we eat those. So this idea that we would use less land is fallacious. Veganism is about theology and ethics, they only latched onto health and climate because they know no one will buy their ethics arguments.

Time was when virtue involved actually doing something virtuous. You know: noble self-sacrifice and struggle for the benefit of others. How quaint and old-fashioned that notion is now. These days, “virtue” involves enjoying being a petulant, infantile, narcissistic PitA and making innocent people suffer while claiming, however implausibly, that you’re doing it to improve the world. She admits that her lot have failed to get their way in a democratic, fair, civilised, decent fashion. That, apparently, is all the justification they need to “escalate” to attempting to force their views on others unlawfully. She feels very strongly about this issue, you see. Yet she must be aware that, on all sides of all issues, there are people who feel just as strongly as her and are absolutely convinced they’re right. Does she think things would be better if they all behaved like this until they got their way? No: she only thinks it’s appropriate for those who agree with her. She and her opinions are fundamentally and indisputably superior, after all. If only the police would respond robustly. These people would soon give up if that started to happen consistently: as already mentioned, these pretentious snobs want to show their “virtue” in the easiest way possible. Make it less easy and more risky and they’ll soon do something else instead. Many don’t even care about the specific issues they’re “protesting” about; just as many in “Insulate Britain” hadn’t even insulated their own houses, so many if not most of these people will not be properly vegan (which I was for years, before I saw the light, and yet I never considered imposing my views on anyone else).

The researchers found that compared to children on omnivore diets, children on vegan diets had a healthier cardiovascular risk profile, with 25% lower levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL, or unhealthy cholesterol). However the vegan children had an increased risk of nutritional deficiencies. They were more likely to have lower levels of vitamin B12, calcium, vitamin D and iron in their diet. Children on vegan diets had about 5% lower bone mineral content and were on average 3cm shorter in height. This is important, as the higher the bone mineral content, the higher the bone mineral density. This 5% difference is concerning, as people have a limited period of time at this age in which they can optimise their bone mineral density; 95% of bone mass is attained by about 20 years of age. Lower bone densities are linked to higher rates of fractures in later life. I am glad that all my 82 years I was a meat eater and i will continue to eat meat until i get really old

“As you probably already know…” people who start off talking like this about controversial topics are likely gaslighting you and trying to convince you of something that is false or at the best debatable is 100% truth. Often times, these very same people make absurd truth claims like “there’s no such thing as truth”. 👎👎👎

He’s such a bully. He should have a moderator for every debate he is in like some other people who can’t respect others long enough for them to answer the question. He’s scared a valid point will be said to him that he can agree with, so he just talks over them like a two year old. I really wish he could learn to keep his mouth shut long enough for her to answer HIS questions, but we all know that’s not why she was invited there. Animal eaters, you telling someone who doesn’t eat animals that you are going to eat more animals, really isn’t anything to bother us; and instead just a little false-pep to your ego. It’s what we expect of those who can’t have a respectful discussion. It’s what we have been surrounded with since we were born. It’s what we used to do ourselves until a connection was made. It’s not a power win and just seen as weak with nothing of value to say. She should have tried to ask him if HE eats avocados or almonds. Then she should have given him a math problem so he can highlight his own hypocrisy as to which diet causes the most damage to the environment and which one kills more animals. And I don’t even think she is vegan from the little bit that Piers allowed for her to share, and he is attacking her as a vegan and deflecting. She sounds like a plant-based person. Vegans do it for the animals, and they get to help the environment and their own health while they’re at it. Plant-based people do it for the environment with the added benefit of better health and less animal deaths, and there’s no way you can be an active environmentalist and not eat a plant-based diet.

The bottom line here is this: many things are damaging to the environment. Where do these environmentalists get the right to decide where to draw the line? Why are their standards the only acceptable ones? Why are avocado and almond farming ok, which use animal harvesting and which are also clearly destructive to the planet, but animal farming is not? Where do they get off drawing the line so conveniently where it suits them, where their dietary demands cause an “acceptable” amount of damage, while meat eaters cause an “unacceptable” amount? It is arbitrary and borne from malevolence and a leftist tendency towards hyperbole, authoritarianism, and cult forming.

Huge respect . Lesson well taught . Free country and permitted under law, and no one is above the law of the country. No body can decide or control what the other person eats . Protest or any kind if awareness creation has to be done in a peaceful way, only then will people be sympathetic and atleast some people might even listen and change if they feel so . But forcing some one and taking law into the hands and causing public nuisance will never be tolerated. 😂😂😂

As an Irishwoman I’d like to apologize for this hallion coming to your country, defacing your historic property and trying to tell a nation not of her own how to live. Cannot stand these Southern hypocrites sometimes. We fought all those centuries trying to keep the crown from running our lives and here she is. I sure hope her community is rightly ashamed of her. Basically I’d like to fight her.
