I stand corrected. However I haven't been 'had' - I don't understand why 'we' collectively must say it's OK to encourage and /or sign off on these lifestyles.
And 'callous cruel denegration' - lol. Although after some thought surgical flesh costume is a more accurate description I believe.
No comment on the other points (perhaps the right isn't the only one using this issue to throw shade).
If all cultures are equally good, why aren't we accepting of Sharia law? The blood libel? Polygamy? How about the current Chinese practice of money over anything (state sponsored intellectual property theft, cheating any way you can)? Child marriages?
And not one comment on equality of outcome.
Here's another one - when there were more boys than girls graduating college it was considered a marker of gender inequality. Now however girls are far more likely to graduate college than boys. What does that mean?

You are not required to to "encourage or sign off" on lifestyles. You are required to not be shitty to people because of a lifestyle that bugs you. So you don't get to exclude them from public accommodations available to others, such as school activities or military roles. How you feel is your business; what you say and what you do affects others and is eligible for comment, and in some cases correction.
Kindly excuse me for not taking your other 'points' extremely seriously when you are throwing your 'amusing' hate speech around. I know of no way to instill empathy in someone who lacks it, so I won't try to make you 'get' why the meat costume thing is an awful thing to say. But I fully suspect you know you are being outrageous, and that is in fact the point.
'Equality of outcome' and 'all cultures equally good' are mere straw men in this argument. No such positions were mentioned by me, nor are they necessary to my main position, which is don't be a jerk to others for no good reason.
