Drag:

Carnist is just the word for people who eat meat, it's not vegans' fault you decided it's an insult. Suggest a non insulting word.

You:

Omnivore

Me:

(Well Carnivore would be meat only, Omivore is everything, Herbivore is veg only. But yeah.)

Were we not having a discussion on the correct word for meat eater, which would be carnivore? I'm confused

Nonetheless, -vore as a root word means devour, carni- means flesh/meat, omni- means all, and herb- means, well, herbs. These words all only describe the animal by their diet, not also their sociological choices.
