So this is why I get shirty about people saying things like "I've met more people who complain about vegans than obnoxious vegans". Great. You're not a farmer, and you're not getting threats.https://twitter.com/BBCNews/status/957975636982759426 …

I agree. People should definitely have to rigorously debate with you about comparing human enslavement to the domestication of animals. That is a worthy use of time and energy and not at all ridiculous.

Open your eyes. Please. Try to seriously consider why I would say this. Look at how humans treat animals. Look at how long. Human enslavement is horrific. So, too, is human treatment of animals.

Listen, I’m all for treating animals humanely, but that you would say that it’s worse than slavery of human beings is absolutely terrible and you should be ashamed of yourself. What you are saying is racist, plain and simple.

Even setting aside the racism, it's telling when people spend more energy on liberating animals then helping the black people who are still suffering from a legacy of enslavement.

What makes it racist?

Because you are placing farming as worse than slavery. That’s racist.

No. I'm placing the human treatment of animals worse than the harm inflicted upon marginalized groups. Here's one contemporary example that regularly happens to many species. And it's worldwide.pic.twitter.com/3Gaopdy9fu

We are not misunderstanding you sir. This isn't the kind of problem where you need to repeat yourself as if we didn't hear you. You're coming through very clearly.

I've got him blocked because his type like to send death threats to farmers, but there's a really upsetting lack of empathy here for other human beings.
