Yeah, I get lots of weird nonsense what-if scenarios, too. In this case from adults that have been living decades in a modern society, they imagine some kind of apocalyptic scenario is just around the corner where I’ll be somehow forced to eat meat? My reaction is usually “uh, sure, I guess, but first of all I didn’t sign some suicide pact with myself, and secondly, I’m sure that dietary restrictions will take a back seat in such stark scenarios…”
Comment my wife got from an associate when she was trying to pick out something to eat at dinner, and asking the server some questions - this person says: “I don’t know what you guys are going to do when the apocalypse comes”. This was in 2024, no joke. I’m always curious how omnivores think they’ll just suddenly take to living off the land because they currently eat meat? Like they will be hunting deer in the suburbs? As someone that has seen several “back to the land” hippie communes fail - as a child - I cannot help but laugh at their hubris.
