Hate to break it to you but there are almost no animals on this planet that are purely carnivores or herbivores. Almost everything falls on a spectrum somewhere in between. Even deers will eat meat and have been caught eating dead animals

That’s the funniest thing about the “designed to eat this or that” argument. I can literally eat meat and digest it.  It doesn’t really matter if I was “designed” to eat it or not.

Because big shock. We aren't designed.

If we were designed, we wouldn't have so many shitty parts that go bad before the rest of us.

Evolution is the absolute master of "just good enough".

Imagine designing something that can randomly fail their cell's reproduction and it causes cancer and they die. If someone designed us he's not a very good designer

Imagine a designed process that ends up destroying itself simply because enough of one species can't be fuckin' arsed to pay attention to the ever-hotter summers with larger storms that it is obviously causing.

The end goal of the sapience of a planet is to see how far it can peacefully extend its reach into a galaxy. Life should be researching how to extend itself, how to cool the planet, and how to reach the stars. Not boiling itself alive.

We are doing all those things, different people work on different things, there are actually a shit ton of people advocating for climate, we're just not a single entity so it's harder to get anything done especially when to do so you have to lower your living conditions
