Vocabulary has a lot to do with it, no one wants to be called a slur and they use carnist as a slur

Then what word would you like people to use for "person eating meat as part of their alimentation"? I ask in good faith, I'm really curious to know your opinion.

I don't think that "meat-eater" is necessarily better than "carnist" 😕 Or a negative like "non-vegeterian"? A bit of a mouthful.

Omnivore is pretty neutral

Alright, that's pretty good. I wanna nitpick by saying that vegetarians are also omnivorous because omnivorous is digesting "plant and animal matter", but I don't know if it would be in good faith :p Thanks for the discussion.
