This is actually a pretty hilarious take.
Farmers being worse than Hitler and Stalin. Torturing trillions of fish to death annually. Jesus as the baseline for evil. An election between Hitler, Stalin, and Gandhi. High regard (-7) for "them". Eating meat "worse than all genocides and wars in all of history combined".
I feel like Democrats really nailed it about their political opponents. "Weird". It applies to all the weirdo Christian nationalism, and it certainly applies to whatever militant vegan political compass nonsense this is too.
If you want to convince Greens to vote for Democrats, it's useful to try to understand their priorities.
"between 0.97 to 2.7 trillion fish are caught from the wild and killed globally every year: This doesn’t include the billions of fish that are farmed" https://www.forbes.com/sites/michaelpellmanrowland/2017/07/24/seafood-sustainability-facts/
Speciesism, specifically factory farming, may be the worst thing humans have ever done - by several orders of magnitude: see Earthlings or Dominion (piped). While the Anthropocene extinction is bad, factory farming is like a Treblinka for animals.
