Stop shoving your vegetarian agenda down my throat!


I was annoyed by the scene where Chewie is guilt-tripped into not eating the Porg he's just killed and cooked, by its fellow Porgs all looking at him because he's going to eat one of theirs.

Fuck you, Porgs, you're not intelligent, you're just wild bird creatures and you TASTE DELICIOUS! Go on, Chewie, eat that lovely roast meat!

Oh, and fuck all of you vegetarian SCUM.

It's Chewie, he def ate it after a few minutes.

I hope so.

I would have Chewie become a real barbarian asshole that nobody wants around. Turns out Wookies are horrible. Like having bear-gorillas around. They just do what they want, shit where they want. And the only thing keeping Chewbacca tame and in line all these years was Han. This gives a lot of great character development to Han even in death.

Compare to Luke who has been living on the island for a few years. We know he'll eat fish and drink animal milk so he's not a vegetarian. Has he tried roast Porg? We don't know. :)

Anyway, I don't think this scene is necessarily vegetarian propaganda but I see you're point. I thought it was a cutesy moment where we see the Porgs as lovable little creatures who are maybe a little scared at the thought of being eaten by Chewie. Chewie gave in to their crying - it's not bad to show compassion. :)

This movie is packed with left wing liberal messages. Notice "admiral" Holdo and her purple hair.
