Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

So are vegans out of things to eat then?
Even if we discovered that plants feel pain to the same extent as animals, a vegan diet would still be the moral option seeing as an omnivorous diet requires more plants (via animal feed) than a vegan one.
Efficiency of energy transfer is lost very quickly at higher trophic levels.
I commented that exact same image on an another post. https://lemmy.cafe/post/20726377/12579910
Communication amongst organisms doesn't imply a significant amount of morally valuable traits surrounding consciousness. Fungi communicate and even cells communicate. Communication is just the sending of information
veganism is specifically about animal exploitation
Er... you tell ME, as per our long-exampled omnivorous history?
Swords UP, gladios sursum.
