[Serious] Why do so many people seem to hate veganism? - Lemmy.World
Seen a lot of posts on Lemmy with vegan-adjacent sentiments but the comments are
typically very critical of vegan ideas, even when they don’t come from vegans
themselves. Why is this topic in particular so polarising on the internet?
Especially since unlike politics for example, it seems like people don’t really
get upset by it IRL
From what I have seen, it more stems from the activism vegans are engaged in more than the actual veganism.
I think there’s nothing wrong with explaining your ideas and why you believe them to those willing to listen, but I can see why pushy activism for any cause can get annoying quickly. There are often Jehovah’s witnesses outside my local supermarket, for example, but they only give you a pamphlet if you specifically approach them
