Eh, when you put out obvious bait, and a fish runs with it, it's kinda on the fish.

You throw out some kind of weird fly, any fish with sense is going to be wary.

Vegans are the fish in this analogy. When there's a troll so obvious that a teenager is like "dad, does anyone ever actually fall for that?", and the vegan fish not only nibble at the bait, they swallow the whole dang rod, it's almost like the bait is true. I mean it is true, but it's still also an obvious thing meant to take the piss.

It's irresistible to me because it has never once, in over a decade of doing it on various forums, failed entirely. At most, it would take a day or two to get noticed before someone comes screeching in, ready to lambast and be nasty. I have zero guilt about messing with the kind of people that take the bait.
