    You’re gonna have to explain who would find this funny and why for the rest of the class

      If you have to explain the joke, it’s likely not a good joke.

      It’s a huge red flag if someone saw how fucked up animal agriculture is and understood why animal exploitation is wrong, stopped supporting it, and then went back to supporting it. So the logic makes sense, that’s something that’s actually worth not wanting someone to date your child for, and it’s funny cause it’s not the stereotype of “parent vetoing childs partner” at all

          Imagine instead of vegan, the caption was like “my daughter tells me you watch dog fights on the weekend” and the guy says “well I stopped going to them but…”

            Oh ok so the dad is kicking him out for having been a part of something gross even though they changed their ways.

            See, idk, not that funny.

                Speaking of which, try reading that comment again because, to me, it seems they are implying that veganism is the gross thing. Basic reading comprehension.

              the “but…” implies they have started doing the gross thing again. Imo it’s worse if someone recognizes something is bad, stops, then starts doing it again, they’re no longer ignorant but they still choose to do the bad thing

                  As I explained above, the part I find funny is that it’s subverting the meme. Usually people rejecting their childs partner are doing it for bad reasons, like being overprotective of their child, or the meme usually puts in some random reason and it’s silly. In this case the meme has been subverted and it’s being done based on decent logic, while still retaining the silliness of an over-the-top reaction.

                  it’s not a super funny meme, but it gave me a single breath out of my nose laugh

                Yeah, changed their ways as in went back.

                The but.

                It’s a funny analogy to make because they directly compared being vegan to watching dog fights.

                Someone who wanted to really dunk on y’all would maybe make a joke about brain function and nutrition.

                Instead I’ll just say “this isn’t how you change minds”

                  What are you even saying? The meme isn’t comparing being vegan to watching dog fights, and the reason I used that analogy is because a lot of ethical vegans see not being vegan as similarly bad to watching dog fights, since both support unnecessary cruelty to other animals. Since most people are against watching dog fights, the analogy helps people see the meme from the perspective an ethical vegan sees it.

                  Your lack of ability to understand what’s being said would be easier to dunk on lol also this meme isn’t really targeted at changing minds I don’t think 🤷

    Ooh! Ooh! I get to do this bit again!

    Nobody wants a religious zealot, even an ex religious zealot dating their child.

    !now, watch, despite it being an obvious troll to bait the rude vegans, someone will take the bait.!<
