VANCE There’s no electrocution of dogs here.

INTERVIEWER How disgusting is that? What does it tell you about a person?

    Hitler wasn’t really a vegetarian, he rarely ate meat but that was because he had gastrointestinal issues. On paper the Nazis banned animal experimentation, but the ban was waived for war industries, which ended up being most of the Nazi economy.

    I know exactly what strain of reactionary you’re talking about though. It’s why if someone claims to like animals more than people, my immediate response is to ask if they’re a vegan. If they are, I’m like, “Oh, okay, an introvert. Fair. Also we can complain about carnists together.” If they’re not, I know there’s a higher than average chance I’m about to hear some i-am-adolf-hitler shit

    EDIT: Also wild that this comes up literally days after I unintentionally caused a controversy trying to articulate this same sentiment, lol
