    It’s art. It’s meant to provoke. Now put yourself in a vegan’s shoes for a moment and look again at this comic, and you see the grotesquerie of animal based agriculture laid bare.

    It’s social comentary. Really really good social comentary. Edit - not vegan myself, but I get it.

      Vegan here: I am still grossed out about how Dave exemplified drugging, abduction, compliance, murder, and cannibalism.
      There so many more ways to do all the above without eviscerating your readers.

          Wait, Dave intended to eviscerate his audience‽

          Don’t patronize me. I am extremely aware art is supposed to evoke emotions.

          I am telling YOU can do that in MANY MORE WAYS than to have your audience against you, and your thesis.
