First there was chicks with dicks. Then men who menstruate. Now it is butchers without meat. Don’t like reality? Make something up. Correct me if I’m wrong. Isn’t applying a term, as it is commonly understood, to a diametrically opposed concept, cultural appropriation? I thought cultural appropriation was bad. Guess it depends on who is doing the appropriating.
This would be a good time to point out the definition of butcher. Butcher can be a noun or a verb. As a noun the term clearly does not apply. It doesn’t fare much better as a verb. A case can be made that butcher and vegan are compatible when used as an informal verb. As in: to call a greengrocer a butcher is to butcher the language.

If this vegan shit is so good how come everything they make is supposed to taste just like meat? Why can’t it stand on its own? I like vegetables. I guess I’m too smart to be a vegan. I’ve never confused broccoli with a steak.
