This doesn’t legalize weed, but arguably it’s a step in the right direction.

I am more than happy to be preachy about ending the suffering and abuse of literally billions of animals.

Listen, I appreciate someone who is at least not hostile towards vegans, but I hate this whole “I respect what vegans eat, so they should respect what I eat”. Sir, you are eating an animal that was most likely tortured and abused its entire life up until the point it was murdered

What if my dietary preference was cannibalism? Then would it be okay to shit on my dietary preference?

Not eating animals isn’t a dietary stance, it’s an ethical stance.
