Libs Attack Supermodel for Loving Bacon, Learn They Picked Wrong Woman to Bully
This just proves nobody’s all bad.
Model and Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue veteran Chrissy Teigen might be a standard entertainment world liberal, with a record of criticizing President Donald Trump long before he was ever even considered a candidate for the presidency.
But there’s one issue where Teigen has taken a stand that even a master of Twitter like Trump would have to admire.
It’s even led the vegetarian side to stoop so low as to question Teigen’s qualifications for motherhood.
But the spouse of singing star John Legend gives back as good as she gets.
And then she hits back a little harder.
The dustup started when Teigen took lighthearted part in an online poll by Hempler Foods Group asking which kind of bacon consumers prefer:

Teigen’s answer was spot on.
4. Chewy crispy fat, crispy juicy meat. https://t.co/WhFiLxOucw

For just about anyone, that would have been the end of the issue.
But vegetarians despise bacon, of course. And they certainly have no use for celebrities who enjoy it. (And let’s not discount the misogyny factor here. Liberals are harder on women who don’t toe the party line than conservatives ever would be.)
One whiner tweeted Teigen a picture of a slaughterhouse, with a plaintive note that said, “they’re better alive.”
0. They’re better alive. Why can’t they be a breed of dog so ppl would care? pic.twitter.com/IwpSceiuMz

Teigen’s response was pitch perfect: “I do not like eating them alive.”
I disagree. I do not like eating them alive.

Since radical vegetarians are not known for their sense of humor, the jab was not taken well at all. As the dispute continued, some of the combatants even went so far as to imply Teigen — who already has one toddler with another child due in June — wasn’t fit for motherhood.
I have lost ALL the respect I had for @chrissyteigen before this disgusting thread of comments. Unfunny, disgusting human. Unfortunate that a person with such a lack in compassion is also a mother. https://t.co/FoEXmOKaHY

Teigen, however, had several responses to that. One that was a little too racy for publication here, but another summed up the reaction most normal meat-eating humans have to the nagging superiority of the vegetarian leftists (and they’re almost always leftists).
She banged their moral pretensions …
I can’t imagine thinking I’m a god because I don’t eat meat while simultaneously being a judgemental brat to strangers online.

… and slammed their sense of entitlement.
I always think that one day, I will probably give being a vegetarian a try. The thing that would stop me? I *never* want to feel as entitled and judgmental as the ones losing their minds in my mentions.

And if that ally can look as good as Chrissy Teigen does, the tent of conservative politics is big enough to make room for a while.
After all, nobody’s all bad.
