    You could start by talking like a civilized person without insults and maybe use facts, research, philosophy, etc. to explain your position why eating meat is bad and have a civilized debate.

      This isn’t going to be popular but meat eaters need to put their ego aside and hear what those who speak out against animal torture are trying to tell them. Factory farmed meat is anything but civilized.

        “need to put their ego aside” - pot, kettle. The more compelling arguments I have seen have to do with the amounts consumed being both unhealthy and not economic.

        Self righteous egotistical fools just make me disregard their position.

          My feelings aren’t hurt. Over the past 30 years I’d heard it all. It’s time for you to understand that all the rape, torture, and death are unnecessary. Call me whatever name you want, I really don’t care.

        Yes but what people should do and what they will respond to are two different things
