@vegandesign: Out on the streets of Stockholm for We The Free Solidarity Day. A Christian couple (I suspect in Stockholm to object against the Pride that was happening the same day) were asked if we should respect other animals. I think she saw my rainbow socks and decided I needed saving 😆🌈

Religion makes people believe ridiculous things...

lore_ipsum :

she is mixing up the biological meaning of "animal" with the moral one

Thom Bellini :

Why the f*ck to people WANT to think we are not animals? What harm does accepting that do? We humans created the term animals to describe physical differences between animals and plants, I dont understand the resistance.

Saša Kostel :

Isn't that basic biology from the sixth grade of elementary school? We divide the living world into plants and animals; later, we learn that fungi are something in between. But yes, humans are animals.

It's not even up for debate we are animals

cf_catfor :

You can’t argue with religious people. They are too ingrained in their beliefs. However she does make a point when she said there are bad and good farmers. Like, there a “humane” ways to kill an animal.

Right wingers believe that their feelings are more valid than facts

Ethnic Swedes are around 70% atheist/non religious. Sorry you had to run into these two.

Twatster :

Nushu :

Religion has been keeping people dumb for 2000 years

Dinkt.04 :

Here’s the thing, we didn’t evolve from apes… we ARE apes.

MrKestryl :

every living creature on earth is an animal... why would not be one too

PastelSunset🏳️‍⚧️ :

biggest pet peeve is people who think “no” is an acceptable response to PROVEN FACTS

tjoakimo :

She does’nt speak for every swede.. 🥲

thinkery3 :

This is just one example of how religion gives believers the option to abandon critical thinking. It’s so incredibly frustrating to see, and I appreciate that you kept trying to reach her.

Zahni :

How do people not know that humans are animals wtf

Noneof Yourbusiness :

It’s not a matter of opinion
