Sometimes it seems that Twitter was invented so people could post innocuous pictures of their lunches. Comedian Joe Rogan’s snap of a midday kale concoction, though, led to an ugly ideological battle.<\/p>\n

Rogan’s reference to vegans as “freaks” didn’t take long to hit a nerve.<\/p>\n

@Durangodog<\/a>: u r total fucking hypocrite. Why don't u and ur wife pop out some more kids? Just what this earth needs” #VEGANCUNT<\/a> #BLOCKED<\/a><\/p>\n

That last thing I quoted is exactly what I hate about some crazy vegans – a human telling me there's something wrong with reproducing<\/p>\n

@joerogan<\/a> Procreation should be the best thing we do.<\/p>\n

Is celebrities mixing it up with fans and followers in ugly Twitter exchanges a new trend? Blake Shelton’s turtle-squashing joke<\/a> turned into a multi-day affair.<\/p>\n\n\n

Yet excited to let the world know she only eats plants – plants that could have been eaten by nice animals. Kill yourself, feed the crows<\/p>\n

Woa @joerogan<\/a> keep it calm, you'll need the vegans to throw tomatoes at you during stand up. You'd think an MMA announcer got beat up enough<\/p>\n

Could this story have a happy ending? Can’t we all #justbenice?<\/p>\n\n\n

@Durangodog<\/a> wow why would you say shit like that to @joerogan<\/a> be vegan all you like, just be a nice person with it. #justbenice<\/a><\/p>\n

Is this the final word from Rogan on the subject?<\/p>\n\n\n

If you do choose a vegan diet, make sure you supplement with B12 or your brain will shrink http:\/\/t.co\/GnLQoNeV<\/a><\/p>\n
