Nah, it's just mocking the people who claim humans have to eat meat, because evolution/god/whatever gave us teeth to chew meat.
It is correct that our teeth do allow chewing meat (since we are omnivores), but yeah, taking the teeth as basis for any argumentation, that's just ridiculous.
As the only basis, maybe. But they can be an indicator.
They can be an indicator whether we might be carnivore, herbivore or omnivore. But the actual digestion is what counts. And particularly, the categorization into "omnivore" leaves a lot of room for interpretation. Some omnivores might genuinely need to eat both categories. We happen to not need that.
