Maybe don't jump into a topic you're not willing to discuss like an adult. Shit's not inconsquential, and doing little drive-by insults to get a laugh and cheer makes everyone else's job harder.

I entertained your paint-by-numbers apologia more than you deserved, honestly. You just can't handle having your worldview challenged, even in the slightest way. You see criticism where there is none and try to pick fights for no reason.

It's actually kind of disappointing that you're behaving this way because I know people who do VNS work at a university I used to live by and they're really cool people. Many of them are actually vegan outside of their work precisely because of the work they've done with animals.

They didn't mince words or regurgitate crap that sounds like it came from a beef lobbyist. They see it for what it is and it's not a big deal to talk about it like that. They're a big part of why I no longer have animal research as one of my hills to die on because I do very much respect the endeavor. Good thing I had the guidance of sensible, ethically consistent people like them instead of being molded by interactions with hostile, fragile crybabies.
