I don't like seeing graphic pictures of animal cruelty, slaughter, or death. I hate it when people post the most graphic and gory animal death pics on Facebook or other websites. Reading the stories is disturbing enough. I don't need the visuals.

I've had to hide a few people and pages from my news feed because they repeatedly post graphic pictures. I told the people ahead of time that they could either post those things to a list I wasn't included on, or I would have to hide them from my feed. Happily they were cool with it.

I agree. Ive seen things I dont need to see to be Veg*n, people assume that we need to keep watching horror shows like AR videos to stay on track. We dont and I dont think its the right way to convert Omnis either. There I said it. Stop 'meat shaming' omnis...it makes us look like nutters!

You see this all the time on Tumblr. No wonder everyone there is always making fun of vegans. Some of the weirdest, craziest, most psychopathic and illogical things I've seen on that website were posted by vegans.

One keeps yelling that factory farming is a government conspiracy to continue the Holocaust, another thinks that men can't be "legitimately raped" (but women can! ) under any circumstances, etc...

Same. I'm already vegan, don't wanna see it.

^ I agree that I don't want to see any animal cruelty pics online too as I don't need more horrible mental images.

This is a pretty accurate description of 95% of angry online feminist bloggers and their supposed traumatic experiences with men.

And this is what unexamined male privilege looks like. Haha, silly wimmin! You don't know your own experiences, so let me reduce what *I* think your life is like into a stupid cartoon!

Seriously. -_-

Wow. In all groups there are going to be people who exaggerate and falsify, but to make such a broad and sweeping statement is incredibly detrimental.

I cannot bear right-wing people and I have been reading too many of their views lately on a UK forum.

Let's keep things in perspective. Angry feminist bloggers are a very small subset of the population. He didn't say "all female bloggers", nor did he say "all women".

Hating something just because it's illegal is stupid.
Especially when it's gradually becoming legal (About time, too)

There's a certain attitude that goes with this kind of thing, though.

If you take it on a literal level, that's a totally different story. Certainly there are people like that out there! I've run into them on the internet myself, and they're just as ignorant as the people they bash. But you can't judge everything you see without looking into the motivations, the pre-conceived notions and the cultural insensitivity. Making light of it like that is just plain offensive to anyone who is sincerely affected by these issues (spoiler alert, that is a large amount of people).
