Yea, it's a pretty safe asumption that they're trying to elevate animals to personhood, but it sure as hell sounds like the reverse of that up first reading.

If they don't use it as a noun it doesn't work, that's why. "Other women" cows aren't women, they are cows or bulls. Female cows, implied, but also the you can't say "other", we aren't cows. If they want to equate women and cows they kiiiinda need to use the bad term I guess? Regardless of your feelings with what they are saying.

That's how you know it's something made to discredit the vegan movement by some angry 4channer

Vegans aren't better than you just because you make more harmful choices.

Nobody made you click this thread. You don't want to be left alone, you want people to stop talking about subjects you don't like.

The “carnic industry” is the people, the suppliers and the consumers. You think dismantling a factory farm alone is going to end meat consumption? You’d still be out there finding a way to indulge, so the problem has to be dealt with at its source. Now some people might complain that killing humans in defense of animals is morally wrong, but taking the moral high ground has never worked for converting anyone.

Humans aren't better in taste and texture tbh

Exactly. I would say veganism should be no "trendy" culture, but just an obvious consequence for treating animals the same like us, being also animals. But if people already get offended by food topics, there is no ground to advance that topic any further to ethics or so 😁

I'm not even a vegan BTW.

Don't blame all vegans, this is a special level of asshattery.

Bodily autonomy advocates are all hypocrites

This meme is pointing out that some are hypocrites, but is by no means saying that all bodily autonomy advocates are all hypocrites. It is pointing out the hypocrisy of when a person advocates for the bodily autonomy of humans while not caring about the bodily autonomy of other animals.

cows are literally people

I cannot tell where you think that is being implied. You don't have to equate other animals to humans in order to care about them.
