Gaslighting is when I like something that you don't
Claiming bugs have meat
Ah, so you're treating your intuition like it's universal fact and then claiming to be the victim of gaslighting when someone disagrees. Have a great life!
Because they aren't meaty at all lol
"Meat is muscle, and insects must have muscles to move - its just that their muscles are inside their external skeleton rather than outside their internal skeleton. In fact i have seen insect muscle, when i watched a preying mantis eat a large blow-fly."

No longer must you suffer looking like a fucking idiot, making claims unsubstantiated simply because you "feel" they're correct.
Behold! Google!
Well I don't care for propaganda sites. I know "eat the bugs" is currently pretty high up.
But again, using the term "meaty" to describe a tarantula where the most you will eat is the exoskeleton is just bad faith
You do understand that the stuff inside the exoskeleton doesn't just evaporate, right?
