Vegan cafe charges male customers 18 percent ‘man tax’

Well, I hope that I am one of the ones that are different. You see, I am a vegan. But not because I love animals. No no no, its because I fucking HATE goddamn plants! *Chomp Chomp Chomp* Take that you stoopid green leafy healthy fucking thing that everyone shoves down my throat!

Actually, I dont really eat a lot of meat, but I think it is because of my blood type. Heard that a few places. Steak and hamburger usually sits in my stomach and always weighs me down. I just dont like the way my gut feels when its meat overloaded. I could really give a shit about what anyone else eats as long as it isnt being forced or manipulated down someone elses throats. Stuff like pink slime Chicken McNuggets or artificially flavored everything and always being told "its perfectly save for human consumption" makes me look at those types as profiteering sociopathic liars.
 
You are right, just somebody saying so, does not make it so.

No, what makes vegans almost universally "liberals" or more properly "authoritarian statists" is that, given the chance, the vast, vast majority of vegans would cheerfully, wholeheartedly and without equivocation support the idea of government mandates banning the use or consumption of any animal product for any use at any time.

They would equally favor harsh and draconian punishments for non compliance.

I follow a vegan diet and don't support either or those things.

You can't force a vegan diet on anyone. It has to become one's own conviction. I was a monk for about 15 years and the group followed a vegetarian diet. Being used to the diet, I continued when I left, then switched to vegan about 2 years ago.

Just by virtue of you being here, indicates that you are in the tiny minority on this.

Let me follow up, I can recall no instance, anywhere, anytime, of an omnivore calling for laws forcing people to eat animals products.

India is where we're heading.

Really. That's interesting, pao. You should tell us about that some time.
Sorry, I meant 11 years (1998-2009). There was a long application process and, in my mind, often include that time when speaking of my time there. It's easiest to talk about when answering questions.... Anyway, I got interested in Ron Paul during 2008 presidential election... probably more interested than I should have been, lol.

There was actually some industry penned legislation that specifically said that people had no right to know what was in their food. And it went further to say that the States didn't have the right to protect it's citizens right to know. I posted it around here some place.

That kind of thing fundamentally takes away one's freedom of choice. Which is fundamental to Individual Liberty.

That was actually a 'conservative' bit of tomscrewery.

That wasn't about meat, or vegetables particularly. It was everything.

I think they're still trying to get it into law.

Yeah, me, too. I have a sock around here some place. Hehehehe. I always go to Ron when I'm looking for an answer to something. He rarely fails me.

Not to bring her back into it but lily promotes veganism from a biblical perspective.

I've never heard an actual practicing Monk discuss his reasoning for a plant based lifestyle, though. I'd be interested in making the comparison with the case that some Christians make in its support. If for no other reason than purely educational material.

I don't disagree from a libertarian point of view. But I think they were violating federal law. Which I worked as my angle to get into the club.:D

What's the point of a club that doesn't straight up discriminate based on looks period?

I don'tlike what they feed the factory farm animals. That's my biggest thing.

That is a controversial, but imo important part of the equation regarding diet. All humans are not alike and a one diet fits all approach seems to be a short-sighted view. Blood type diet is an interesting topic.

I have a sensitivity to a large swath of vegetables commonly consumed in the average American diet (nightshades) so veganism would be, if not impossible, extremely boring. It's already hard enough eliminating a group of vegetables that's found in damn near everything. I can't imagine having to eliminate all animal related ingredients also, while trying to avoid the rest of the poisons inserted into the food supply.

Veganism is clearly a left-wing thing. Of course, it doesn't have to be - there's no logical inconsistency in being a vegan and a liberal, nor in being a leftist and not being a vegan. But the fact is that most vegans are leftists (I'm speaking from experience only, as I'm aware of no polling data). Why is this the case? I suppose it's because, for many leftists, veganism is an extension of their victim-fetish: poor minorities, poor women, poor gays, poor poor, poor Bessie the cow (even "poor plants" in the case of "fruitarians" rofl). That said, it's often just a pose or a fad, not many true believers. Bono syndrome.

Yeah, that revolved around private property privacy.
