That's stupid. If they likened veganism to celibacy, I could buy that.

[Keke Le Cat]

See they are both getting discriminated against by the 'in' crowd.

What are we discussing in this thread? If you think this comic is stupid or not? I don't get it

[Keke Le Cat]

Jesus, what's not to get? Vegans get discriminated against, so do atheists. It's a shame that in this supposedly free country people aren't free to believe (or disbelieve as the case may be) what they want, or eat what they like.

[Mario The Black Knight]

I get the Comic, it's the premise of the thread I don't understand

[Keke Le Cat]

This is how this conversation went on my other forum:


Person 1: I don't understand how people can live without meat. It's stupid.
Person 2: I used to be a vegan but now I eat what I like, it's too hard otherwise.
Me: I know, right. Same here. I still don't eat much meat but I don't follow the lifestyle.
Person 3: What does atheism have against meat?
Person 2: There is no connection other than the obvious. Go away. You're stupid.
Person 1: Leave him alone, he isn't stupid, atheism is stupid. Why not eat meat? Animals don't have souls.
Person 3: Yeah. What he said.
Me: I know someone who won't eat bacon because they used to have a pet pig. I like bacon.
Person 3: What does that have to do with atheism?
Me: Nothing. It's just a point I thought I'd make.
Person 4: You people are all idiots.
Me: Go play in traffic.
Person 5: If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all.
Person 6: God wanted us to eat meat or else he wouldn't have given us dominion over the animals.
Mod: Thanks for another useless thread to argue in KC.
Me: No problem, I'm glad you're pleased with my efforts. I'll make another tomorrow.
Mod: I was being sarcastic.
Me: No! Really?
Person 2: Shuddup Mod, your mother doesn't like you.
Mod: I SHOULD BAN YOU BOTH BECAUSE I HAVE AN EPEEN THE SIZE OF TEXAS.
Me: Your mom likes me. She said so last night. After I fucked her. Tell your dad I said hi.
Mod: That doesn't make sense.
Me: It doesn't have to.
Person 2: Yeah!

[Mario The Black Knight]

Exactly.

Treatment or consideration based on class or category rather than individual merit; partiality or prejudice

[Mario The Black Knight]

Fucking white people

Now that is isn't as acceptable to be racist, they start making fun of each other for even dumber reasons

[Keke Le Cat]

At least they aren't burning my people at the stake anymore.

[Solly]

The country is politically free. It is impossible to be socially free. SHUT UP, BITCH!

[/persecution]

[Nidogod]

Really, are there any lifestyle choices or belief systems out there that couldn't be switched for Vegan and Atheist?

And what's with panels 3 & 6 of that comic? He asks himself from above to remember a similar instance of being discriminated against and then answers from below? Sorry, that's sub par editing.

You could just as easily say that people persecute Christians because it's logical not to believe in God. And admit it or not, Christians get plenty of persecution these days. even if it's fringe wackos like Athiests and Vegans that no one really cares about, they're still doing their fair share of persecuting.

Or persecuting against meat eaters because of 'cruelty' to animals... if the animals didn't want to be eaten they'd have better defense mechanisms.

I feel gay for putting those Less than Three hearts up there but felt the situation called for it.
