  • I agree that if you’re vegan, blocking this community is the right thing to do, in the same way I block every meme community on the fediverse. It likely doesn’t have any practical value, although the science will probably still be of interest.

    The meat industry is well known to be bad for the environment simply due to its scale.

    No disagreement from me here. But is it not also true that monoculture is bad for the environment? I don’t wish to do any whataboutism but I think the problem is industrial agriculture.

    Animal cruelty

    Again, no disagreement from me here. I do my best to avoid meat from industrial agriculture and always buy from local farmers when possible.

    Carnivore diets have been studied and shown to increase the risk of several diseases.

    Could I trouble you to provide the studies so I can further read up on the topic? As a somewhat-counterpoint, nutrients are more highly bio-available from (preferably non-grain-fed) animal sources, and traditional diets exist that are primarily meat-based.

    I think also that veganism for the sake of personal health has the exact same goals as carnivore, but due to dogma all discussion of animal nutrients will be downvoted on existing communities especially considering how they are even downvoted here. If your aim isn’t the tyranny of the masses, then carnivore should have its own community.
