Vegans banned by Lewes pub during hunt

[Treacle Toes]

He's put them in an impossible situation. The pub will be vilified, boycotted, and possibly attacked by AR nutters now. The owners have to publicly disassociate themselves from him and fire him. Don't you think?

Like I said, you are usually more sympathetic to those displaying 'gammon' tendencies despite their 'ham fisted' attempts at humour.

 

[Thimble Queen]

No it isn't, give you your due you made me check but it isn't

I'm surprised you checked tbh.

 

[Spymaster]

Vegans annoy almost everyone, fox hunters come over as being massive wankers ...

Do you reckon vegans annoy more people than fox hunters?

award yourself a star

Neck and neck I’d say

 

[Ax^]

fox hunters come over as being massive wankers but the culture of its pretty embedded in country life I think?

so is inbreeding but they don't throw pub lunches for it

as far as i know

 

[Edie]

Lots of people feel very strongly about hunting. Then eat factory farmed nuggets and Greggs. I eat Greggs and don’t really care too much about hunting. It’s definitely better than factory farming.

I'd say most people couldn't give much of a fuck about fox hunters. But if you're correct, most vegans annoy everyone who aren't vegans. That makes them worse than fox hunters.

 

[ddraig]

Warning to not be a twat would probably suffice. Vegans annoy almost everyone, fox hunters come over as being massive wankers but the culture of its pretty embedded in country life I think? The entire charade of hunting and protesting is very weirdly British.

Why do vegans "annoy almost everyone" in your opinion?

 

[Edie]

I feel bad about eating factory farmed meat. I try and ignore it but I do.

 

[Edie]

Why do vegans "annoy almost everyone" in your opinion?

It’s because they think they’re better than other people. Simple as that really.

Same with that clean eating nonsense. And much of yoga ‘spirituality’. Just gets on everyone else’s tits.

All of them??
A minority maybe, who are dicks if they think they're superior

Tbf I don’t actually know any.

where do you get your view of them from then? :consufed:
not here I hope!!

I have a very close friend who is vegan. He is pretty unassuming about it. Never preachy. I eat meat in front of him and he eats strange sausages in front of me.

When he uses the loo his shit really stinks.

Fox hunters can go fuck themselves. So can Jack from The Dorset.

I dunno, it’s just a very natural reaction I dislike anyone who virtue signals I guess. I think having a largely vegetarian diet is fair enough, good on you. It’s the reading labels and everything having to be a song and dance that’s irritating. It strikes me as essentially attention seeking.

 

[Edie]

I don’t really care though. It’s a pretty minor irritation.

 

[The39thStep]

I don't know any vegans.

So having to read labels to make sure you're not buying animal products is attention seeking?
It is irritating I agree, easier these days, don't see how it's attention seeking tho

Weird "natural reaction" to have to someone who doesn't eat the same as you, surely you'd agree?!

 

[IC3D]

The thing about people out in the sticks is they're ignorant or don't care about the majority of people and relish it. Like vegans, except they at least have an ethos.

A good mate of mine back in the UK is vegan. She's never preached to me. We've been out for meals together etc. All fine. Can't say if her poo is worse than mine though.

The hunt is an anachronism, and a nasty brutish one at that. Really only kept alive as part of the entirely obsolescent and foul set of rituals aristos call a 'culture'. We don't torture ferrets and fight dogs at local fairs anymore, so why on earth should hunts be any different. Its just an excuse for them to ride hard and fast over other peoples land then watch some goreporn at the end of it, fuck em. And their goons.

Ah well. I know you’re a vegan and I don’t really hold it against you. You seem like a decent bloke.
