I don't deny the existence of slurs or hate speech (like "bloodmouth"). In this particular case, "carnist" is an academic word used in scientific papers in a sociological context.

Like I said in the other thread, it's describing the opposite of vegetarianism and veganism. "Omnivorous" was proposed as an alternative, but it's initially understood as "digesting plant and animal matter" in zoology, which would technically include vegetarians.

There is a need for a name that excludes vegans and vegetarians to describe reality.

Sorry for the Godwin point, but fascism is also an academic word used to describe a real political movement and fascists hate being called fascists. I'm myself eating meat so I don't want to draw parallels here.
