I’m vegetarian, and I thought this was pretty funny. Chill out, people. :D
The comic (and you) are pretending veganism is just a silly diet instead of a social justice movement. You may not be doing this intentionally but the OP posts this same misuse day after day.
Similarly if someone repeatedly posted jokes about another social justice movement, eg feminism, that would get pretty annoying too.
If it’s not growing then it’s dead, and only vultures eat dead things
I don’t understand why it’s supposed to be funny to make fun of vegans?
I am not a vegan myself, but I absolutely understand their moral reasoning for being vegans.The drawings are pretty funny, the “joke” is not.
Why exclude one group from humor? Everyone should be made fun of.
It’s basically one or two posts a day, so a bit more than just including them. OP has a grudge against vegans, which is weird in it’s own right.
The main problem I think is that OP ran out of funny vegan comics a long time ago, so what is left is bottom of the barrel quality. This comic for instance is not remotely funny and it’s a pattern at this point, none of them are.
I don’t think anything has to be “done” about it, it’s more embarrassing than anything at this point. I think it’s a good idea to call him out though, so new users understand the situation and don’t get the impression Lemmy is anti vegan or something.
I understand. Thank you for clarifying.
By all means.
Just, y’know, be clever about it.
OK what are these other groups? Redheads, handicapped, foreigners, women?
What are these groups that should be made fun of?
You are reasoning like a true sociopath.I say everyone and you go for minorities. “Made fun of” was poor choice of words but humor should be inclusive without being derogatory.
Everyone includes minorities. So maybe you should have excluded that instead of using such broad strokes.
Just include everyone without being derogatory, okay?
Now you are making zero sense, since the OP joke was clearly derogatory.
as long as it’s remotely funny
This user regularly posts intentional misuse of the term vegan either as misinfo or ragebait.
“I’m a Level 5 vegan. I don’t eat anything that casts a shadow.”
So you can eat anything in the dark.
Flicks light switch off.
