Nah, don't you understand? I'm literally designed to hunt and kill animals, just like other predators.
This gun? Well how else am i supposed to kill them? I don't have any sort of claws or sharp teeth or anything designed to kill animals for sustinence
What do you mean why am i cooking the meat? I'll get sick if i don't, just like every other predator on the planet. Plus, i couldn't even chew it if it were raw.
And all that is assuming natural = moral, which, if your moral code is equivilant to a lions, is not compatible with society. But it's convenient to not change most people's behavior, so they're cool ignoring the logical conclusion of that argument.
This is not a valid argument. We literally evolved to use tools. And humans absolutely can eat raw meat

Maybe we evolved to use our brains to make and use tools. Maybe we're currently evolving to use our brains to eat fewer animals.
Maybe that has nothing to do with your original argument. Maybe that has nothing to do with what's in the meme that we're discussing.
I'm gonna try to reel back my snark, i just deleted a bunch of stuff i wrote. I'll just say it is good for people to try to eat less meat, but you aren't helping your cause with the way you're speaking here.
I'm not OP, I'm just here to stir the pot. You gotta read usernames more. I'm just pointing out that evolution is an ongoing process with no endpoint or goal.
Our ancestors fought their way to the top of the food chain over millions of years. It just feels wrong and ungrateful to eat a purely plant based diet. Like I’m betraying my own species.
I wouldn’t mind eating a vegan diet if there was a way to compensate. We could, for example, have a system where for every vegan meal sold someone strangles a small rodent.
Be the change you want to see in the world. Get some feeder rats from the snake store and rip ones head off with every meal. Bonus points for using teeths.
