But never announce it on social media. The purists will fight you.

vegans as well as linux users are nowhere near as outspoken and petty as they are made out to be. personally i find jokes about that insufferable and ubiquitous. The ratio of jokes about this to actually people like this existing is like 100:1. my theory is, They get so much shit because them just existing reminds people of their own shortcommings, instead of applauding people doing the effort to pioneer a better world these people decide to make a snarky remark and continue being lazy and annoying with these jokes.

I speak from personal experience. I once tried talking about reducing meat consumption and got attacked. Never again.

I got banned from a vegan community for calling someone out for equating meat consumption with domestic violence.

You think violence and violence aren’t comparable?

Comparing eating meat with domestic violence is a laughable comparison and disingenuous at best. It’s attitudes like that that make the average person unable to take vegans seriously.

Comparing eating meat with domestic violence is a laughable comparison

You’re right of course, but not in the way you intend. The scope and scale of violence in animal agriculture is far greater than in domestic violence cases.

I’m perplexed and rather horrified that you are so unable to empathize with your fellow creatures that you think anyone who can is being disingenuous.
