You are almost certainly not eating animals to survive, you are doing it because you think it's normal and are either not aware that there is another way, or have chosen to ignore it. It is absolutely unnecessary for most people in first world countries to consume meat, there are easy to access alternatives that are better for the environment, animals, and quite possibly your health.
If you look at the screenshots it is clearly referencing dead animal flesh with the IDE icons.

A deep ethical concern for the treatment of animals is far older than computing: http://www.jewfaq.org/animals.htm . The cow is sacred to hindus, of which there are 1.08 billion.
stop assuming the problem is with people who care deeply about something and not people who tell them to shut up in public.
