Now, if one of these city kids then decides they're against meat and want to be vegetarian or vegan, even it's no problem for me. I was a vegan for some months (and yes, a woman was involved) and a vegetarian for about six years for various reasons, and was perfectly happy as an ovo-lacto vegetarian. Your body, your choice, as they say.
What annoyed me was the subtext, the underlying apparent motivation of the speaker, which pretty clearly could be summed up as "If those ignorant hicks only knew, they'd agree with me."
This attitude, that the issue in any dispute isn't a difference in opinion but just invincible ignorance, seems to me to underly a whole lot of the arguments we have politically today, and an awful lot of time it's an unfounded assumption.

I’ve seen that far too often. Metrosexuals in the city (and I am assuming their gender because their personalities are their only female traits) “know” about meat far better than the unsophisticated lower classes. If the rural folks from Texas knew what beef really is, if the country boys from North Carolina knew what pork really is, if the hicks from Colorado knew what lamb really is, we’d choose to become emasculated beta males just like the elitists who demand that we allow them to run our lives.
Something I’ve always noticed. There are many that have a “holier than thou” attitude and use it to denigrate those that don’t follow their “religion”.
This is the kernel of attitude that justifies denial of treatment for the “unhealthy” as well as for state mandated euthanasia in socialized medicine.
The way things are going, I figure within about 30 years, it won’t be the bodies of jews being bulldozed into pits, but smokers.
Metrosexuals in the City!.........now there’s a title for an HBO sitcom!.............................
Sex in the City was basically about 4 gay men trapped in womens’ bodies.
And meat eaters who’s heart disease or colon cancer ‘is their fault’ but don’t ever point out lifestyle choices to promiscuous gay men using drugs and engaging in anonymous sex.
Metrosexuals in the City! could be about four gay men trapped in men’s bodies....................
Liberals...have made politics their religion....What they really want is liberal Sharia law, a secular theocracy.
The minimum wage, gender equality, nationalized health care, and global warmingwhatever their practical virtuesare not just expedient policy prescriptions. They are essential aspects of the liberal fatwa...political failure is not just a setback on the road to a more stable societyit is a blow to their very worldview. Opposition to their program is not just wrong-headed, but evil.
I can't say that veganism is a core element of liberal theocratic dogma. However, liberals that ARE vegans tend to be more militant than their conservative bretheren....just think of the college freshman back home for Thanksgiving: young Deplorable Mary who is finding it easier to focus at school on a vegan diet is quietly helping herself to mashed potatoes and vegetables, while young Antifa John is chastising his family for eating the agribusiness-culled death-flesh (read: turkey) being savagely carved by Pop.
And don’t forget Debbie Downer’s Thanksgiving thoughts!

I’ve never met a healthy looking vegan. It’s an eating disorder that has an acceptable name now.
It’s largely a control issue. That’s why the always want YOU to cater to their weird rules.
Easy. They'll immediately f***ing tell you. Second most annoying category of people (Everybody's got their own no. 1).
Liberals have thrown off the shackles of organized religion only to put on the shackles of a created religion called “ progressivism”.

“Its largely a control issue. Thats why the always want YOU to cater to their weird rules.”
Fortunately for me I do not hang out with vegans, not because they are vegans they just tend to be annoying on all fronts.
The old adage ‘you are what you eat’ is true:
Shellfish: You are crabby.
Veggies: You are a pea brain, a cabbage head, a has-bean...........
That's good! That's good!
I hope you came up with that one in nano second.
Again, That's Good!
A vegan diet lacks the essential vitamin B12 which can only be obtained in effective form by eating meat. B12 supplements simply produce expensive urine.
Yes indeed - about a minute and then I choked - on a spearigus;)
NO - I artichoked;)!!!!!!
Ignorant leftists ruin everything.
