      Calling people who eat meat ‘corpsemunchers’ is definitely going to convince them to change, yep

          That entirely depends on the person and their values. For some an augment about environmental impact might work, for others an argument about empathy could do the trick. But attacking is rarely a good basis for a discussion that ends up changing anyone’s mind.

          If getting called a name that hits uncomfortably close to home is what prevents someone from changing, they weren’t actually going to change in the first place and are just shopping for excuses.

      As someone who digs up and eats the dead I find you lumping me in with rest of these people offensive. There’s been a long history of corpse munching in my family and it’s always been for ethical reasons.

      Shrugs vegans just don’t get it. Neither does anyone else but it’s fucking tradition and I’m keeping it alive.
