Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Im fine with being against factory farming cause that shit is fucked and causes exreme suffering.
But I am an animal like any other and I eat meat. Like many other animals. We evolved as omnivores. We evolved to eat meat as well as plants. I do not feel guilty eating meat. It would be like judging a lion for eating a gazelle. Thats nature. Thats life.
I dont buy into this idea that we are somehow above it all. We are part of the food cycle.
You do in fact buy into that idea and I can show you with a single example: Do you consider consent important for procreation?
Also, Omnivore tells you what you can eat, not what you have to.
This is true. Only a vegan tells you what you have to.
😂
I mean, you really should also consider consent when you're doing it just for fun.
But in this case it doesn't matter since you can't get pigs pregnant anyway.

Thats a terrible analogy and you know it. Arguing in bad faith aint gonna get you anywhere.
It's not an analogy, it's an example that shows you being "above it all". Just saying "nature tho" is pretty lazy and I think you know that.
