Letting people casually justify carnism
Post Body

I feel the need to mildly vent over an interaction that's got me considering to adjust how I talk about veganism with others. So I was with a friend talking about weird and ethically questionable foods like Balut (egg with an embryo in it) or foie gras. She went on, as omnis do, with her justification- or lack thereof - with not having an ethical issue eating animals. Even going as far to say she'd eat *dog* in the right context. The conversation shifted, or something happened and I wasn't able to stop and ask "wait, how're you ethically ok with it?"

Usually vegan conversations slide away in a mundane way, but this felt wrong to let her casually say that without even pressing her on on her reasoning, because the implication there was that she put thought into the ethics. I wanted to at least know what she meant by it, I feel like I missed out on an insightful convo..
