Venus fly traps are not animal tested products. They are plants.
And those are both products of animal suffering, a common definition many vegans use. Come on, now you're just being obtuse on purpose.
Venus flytraps aren’t products. They’re organisms.
You’re the one being obtuse. Killing a plant is not killing an animal. Killing a plant that eats animals is not humans doing something to an animal. It’s actually the opposite: it’s humans saving animals.
If you want to get that granular, whatever device you’re using to type your pedantic replies was made of parts that were shipped. At some point, the vehicle they were shipped on killed a bug. You caused way more animal deaths typing your replies to me than anyone ever did killing a venus flytrap, because killing a venus fly trap does not actually kill any animals.
Epic response.
