"Bloodmouth" is one of my trigger words. As soon as I hear it I know the speaker is a complete fucking moron and stop listening. From that point on all I hear is mwah mwah mwah like Charlie Brown's teacher. Feckless background noise.

Although I have to say "bloodmouth's graveyard stomach" hits SUPER hard

I think it's totally natural for humans to eat meat. But also definitely more moral to abstain from eating it.

I am perfectly fine with the knowledge that my stomach is a graveyard.

"Vegan" is truly silly.

As someone who tries to eat less meat in general because climate change and cows are basically giant grass eating slightly smellier dogs, I cannot take anyone who unironically uses "carnist" and "bloodmouth" seriously from that point on.

The more names you use to describe "person who eats meat" that you think are insulting and derogatory, the more people roll their eyes and move on with their planned meal.

Also when they add extraneous hyperbole to invalidate themselves.

No, there's nothing sweet or savory about rotting meat, but it isn't rotting, now is it?People that eat meat do not eat rotting carcasses (RFK aside) the same way vegans don't eat rotten vegetables.

Yeah I'm basically in the same boat. I call myself a half assed vegetarian - I don't typically buy meat for myself but if I go somewhere and meat's already been ordered I won't make a big fuss. I think meat is bad for the environment and cruel to the animals, and want people to care more about that, but it's an emotional issue that needs to be handled as such.

It is annoying that some people are so emotionally invested in meat that it's a hot button triggering topic, but that's how it is.

Some left wing people will call the USA like "burgerland" or "ameriKKKa" and I'm just like that's not going to win any converts. People who aren't already firmly in your camp are going to stop listening.
