Worst of Social Justice

Or worse, sexualize them. Porn shots with warbonnets are roughly the equivelant of a porn shot with a Purple Heart used for decoration.

[Witchyjoshy]

Usually the people I've seen railed at for cultural appropriation are hipster girls doing something obnoxious in war bonnets or "bindis." Both of these things have significant cultural and religious importance and it's just kind of a dick move to use them as fashion statements.

Pretty much.

Is this person for real?

I wish militant vegans would give it a rest.

"Carnivores can be vegan because we, the superior species, decide on their food."

"What, their digestive systems aren't designed for a vegan diet? STOP VEGAN SHAMING YOU MURDERER"

[MadCatTLX]

I've actually seen someone, a grown semi-intelligent adult, argue that humans should use technology to make every animal on the planet a vegan so as to eliminate suffering. This wasn't a small comment either, it was a full on article that they had written and put thought in to. How the concluded such a thing could possibly be done is beyond me.

What was the argument? Or did he just say "Use technology to do it" and just cough and change the subject every time someone asked for an explanation?

We can worry about that pesky overpopulation issue later.

Also, it seems that the image may have been pulled from this load of cherry-picking nonsense.  This is the exact same problem I mentioned earlier in this thread; vegans are ready to pull up a list of ways we're different from carnivores, but conveniently ignore the ways we're different from herbivores.  Also, I'd like to know how many of these "facts" in the list are actually true or if they're bullshit.

[Askold]

It's amazing how vegans often seem to disregard omnivores completely.

Only traitors to The Cause speak of nuance and non-binary distinctions!

Do not make me go into the myriads of ways our body isn't specialized for either a vegan or a carnivorous diet. We'll start with the fact that our teeth actually sucks at chewing vegetation compare to herbivores. But you know, facts and all.

[SpaceProg]

Our gut is also too short to be herbivorous, and we can't digest cellulose, which most herbivores can.   However, our gut is too long to be carnivorous, and we can't digest some things that carnivores can. 

Trying to stop the suffering, are they?  Well THINK OF THE POOR PLANTS!  PLANTS ARE PEOPLE TOO!

[The Right Honourable Mlle Antéchrist]

Along with the obvious carnivore vs. omnivore thing, teeth evolve to suit needs other than breaking down food. Hunting, defence, social signals, etc. are all important factors.

Not to mention that the dude shown in the picture has unusually rounded canines compared to a lot of people.

[gyeonghwa]

My canine is pronounced. Some people have it more pronounced than other.

[Canadian Mojo]

I hate to break it to these people but fang-like canines have more to do with killing than they do with eating. Since all the 'carnivores' are quadrupeds they are forced to grab and suffocate or puncture/rip and exsanguinate. Humans are bipeds, we will pick up a rock and bash some critters head in or we will stab it with something pointy so we never needed to use our teeth for killing.
