I Am a Piece of Shit Poll

White people: Are you still racist towards animals? Do you still gather to enslave them, force them down and use them as objects? No. Racism is wrong. I'm vegan. I don't pay for others to suffer. 2% No. I'm not a hypocrite. I'm a kind-hearted vegan. 1% I never thought of it that way. I will be vegan by Jan 1. 1% I don't care about anyone except myself. I am a piece of shit. 96%

A dark social-media poll asks white people whether they are still racist toward animals and whether they enslave and use them as objects. The overwhelmingly popular answer admits selfishness and calls the speaker “a piece of shit,” parodying moralizing vegan rhetoric and the absurd way the poll frames animal exploitation as racism. It is shared as a sarcastic reaction to hypocrisy, provocative activism, or uncomfortable poll results.
