Get the Carnival Calypso mug.The outdated belief system or ideology under which humans are entitled to eat and exploit any kind of animal they like, due to their greater intelligence and so-called superiority; the diametric of veganism.
Vegan: Why would we kill animals if we don't need to?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Carnist: Humans are superior to animals!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Vegan: Wasn't that the same mentality of the Nazis toward the Jews?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Carnist: Animals are not the same as humans!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Vegan: Yes, but our ability to suffer is the same. Isn't that what counts?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Carnist: Well, you are right about that, but humans are more intelligent than animals.

Get the Carnation mug.Is someone who has been conditioned to believe that harming and exploiting certain animals (typically contingent on the specific culture one grew up in) isn't morally irresponsible. "Carnist" isn't intended to be a derogatory or pejorative term. "Carnist" stems from the term "carnism", a concept developed by Melanie Joy, PhD.
Carnism, similarly to veganism, describes the underlying ideology in which a person views their own relationship to animals (other than the human variety). Where veganism eschews arbitrary differences like intelligence and species in regards to moral consideration for sentient individuals, carnism relies on these and other arbitrary differences in order to rationalize the harming of certain other-than-human animals.
Carnist is most often used to refer to a person's eating habits but since veganism isn't about diet per se, carnism also isn't about diet per se and pertains to any form of exploitation upon other-than-human animals.

"Before I understood that there's no biological requirement for animal products in the human body, I was a carnist raised in the U.S. who ate animals like chickens, pigs, and aquatic animals because that's how I was raised. But of course, during that time in my life I frowned upon people who would eat even a single dog or a cat"
