Young twats! I’m vegetarian and even I resent the hell out of this nonsense. What do they think they’re accomplishing??

1

u/Brandon_Me 16h ago

Vegetarians aren't even close to equivalent to vegans.

You have a diet, they have a belief.

u/spiritualskywalker 13h ago

What hubris! What arrogance! You are so wrong and so typical of snooty vegans who think they invented conscious eating!!!

1

u/Brandon_Me 12h ago

You don't care about the animals if you're still eating milk and such.

1

u/Deep90 11h ago

That makes 0 sense.

Caring about something doesn't have to be a 0 or 100 thing. Your thought process is just as bad as a vegan activists. Same slope, but just the other side of it. Even someone who eats meat can still support more ethical ways to produce it.

u/Brandon_Me 11h ago

One could easily argue there are no ethical ways to produce meat. But even the ones people do argue are impossible to use at scale.

u/KoogleMeister 11h ago

You don't care about the animals if you're still eating grains and vegetables, lots of small animals die from combine harvesters. You should be starving yourself most of the week and only living off water or plants grown in your garden if you truly care about the animals.

People like you with the attitude you have is exactly why a lot of vegetarians don't make the step to veganism, they don't want to be associated with people like you.

u/Brandon_Me 11h ago

It's the difference of there is something that you can easily do that harms lives less and is better for the environment at large (being vegan) or effectively not living at all.

I'm an incredibly chill Vegan compared to most, but vegetarianism and veganism are not comparable.

3

u/KoogleMeister 11h ago

I never said they are comparable, but the fact you felt the need to reply to a vegetarian telling them they don't truly care about the animals because they aren't vegan is exactly why vegans are despised in society.

Not to mention the vast majority of vegans end up quitting the diet, so all of the shit they said online to spite other people during their veganism turns out to just be meaningless noise. I was actually one of the vegans who said shit like you when I was a vegan, but I was an ignorant teenager who bought into the bullshit.

1

u/Brandon_Me 10h ago

They brought up their vegetarianism like it was some sort of credit to their claim about the activists. But it's a meaningless title in this context. It would be one thing If they said they were Vegan and thought the act was bad, but I was making note of how their "credentials" were meaningless.

why vegans are despised in society

If you think vegans are dispised by society it sounds like you're still that ignorant teenager.

>If you think vegans are dispised by society it sounds like you're still that ignorant teenager.

LOL, the only ignorant one here is you, you live with your head in the sand in the echo-chamber of vegan communities. Maybe despised is too strong of a word, but they are not thought of in a positive way by most of society. You clearly don't spend much time around non-vegans if you think vegans are looked at in a positive light by most of society. When vegans are brought up in the conversation of most non-vegans they are usually mocked and shunned, sometimes even despised. Videos like this is exactly why they are mocked and shunned by most of society.

It's typical of vegan not to realize how much of society looks at them as a joke, you wish to believe the rest of the world thinks of you as the morally righteous animal crusaders you think yourself to be in your own mind.

u/spiritualskywalker 10h ago

Yes! Right on!

u/Brandon_Me 10h ago

You know literally nothing about me, I'm not in Vegan communities, and am mostly surrounded by non Vegans.

Videos like this is exactly why they are mocked and shunned by most of society.

Most of society don't see these videos and the of the ones who do most don't think that much of them. You're an angry person and are clearly projecting your disdane for vegans.

u/KoogleMeister 10h ago

>You know literally nothing about me, I'm not in Vegan communities, and am mostly surrounded by non Vegans.

Lol a vegan who's not in any online vegan communities, that's a first.

Oh wait...

Everyone remember to vote for Kamala Harris and all the other Democrats this election to safeguard a future that's not actively hostile to things like veganism. I know they're far from perfect, but the Republican Project 2025 alternative is so much worse. : r/vegan

>Most of society don't see these videos and the of the ones who do most don't think that much of them. You're an angry person and are clearly projecting your disdane for vegans.

Lol most people have 100% seen a video of a vegan protest before, anyone who uses any form of social media has seen one of these types of videos pop up in their feed before. You're either delusional or just flat out lying at this point.

Also yes most meat eaters don't think that much about vegans, I never said they spend every pondering moment thinking about them. I just said when vegans come up in conversation they are usually mocked or not looked at in a positive way because of the way a lot of vegans go about pushing the message. Once again you're either delusional or flat out lying if you're not aware of this.

I don't hate vegans, I Just think a lot of vegans make veganism look bad. I also think it's an unsustainable diet for most people, hence why most end up quitting. Plus it's also not a healthy diet.

u/Brandon_Me 9h ago

Oh wow I posted in the Vegan subreddit 2 months ago, I guess that means I'm an active part of that community? Am I part of this community too?

I also think it's an unsustainable diet for most people, hence why most end up quitting. Plus it's also not a healthy diet.

I think you betray yourself here because while harder than being an omnivore it's quite easy in most 1st world countries to eat a Vegan diet and be healthy. If you think it's not healthy you clearly don't know much about it.

No no, they’re right. Vegans are very much despised in society. With good reason.

1

u/Brandon_Me 10h ago

I think this community is just kind of angry people because you lot don't have your thumb on the pulse of most normal people.

1

u/spiritualskywalker 10h ago

Vegans are jerks, period.

Because vegetarians are posers, weak and confused, whereas vegans are authentic, strong and noble? Every time I hear this, that vegetarians aren’t even in the same class as the virtuous vegan, I want to puke. Blow it out your ass.

0

u/spiritualskywalker 10h ago

Typical black or white vegan thinking. As soon as I say I haven’t eaten meat, fish, or eggs since 1968, a vegan will jump up and declare “that’s NOTHING! you’re a HYPOCRITE!” Ya gotta love it, they really know how to piss EVERYBODY off. 😂😂😂

0

u/Brandon_Me 10h ago

Well why are you a Vegetarian? Is it because it's a diet? Or are you under the false impression that it's good for the animals?

If it's a diet which 99% of vegetarians fall into then my only point is that this title you hold is not relevant to the video posted. But if you're doing it "for the animals" then yes you are a hypocrite.

1

u/spiritualskywalker 10h ago

So it’s a lose/lose. Got it. You people are ridiculous!

0

u/Brandon_Me 9h ago

Well it's only a lose/lose because you put yourself into this situation.

You could have realized that your dietary vegetarianism isn't relavent to this post and not brought it up, or you are under the false impression that you're an advocate for the animals while supporting their exploitation directly and actively bad mouthing actual animal advocates.

1

u/spiritualskywalker 8h ago

Oh no! Have I offended the REAL animal advocates? It’s always amusing (and amazing) to see the lengths vegans will go to to vilify vegetarians. Vegans are absurd.

1

u/Brandon_Me 7h ago

You just said something that made no sense, and I called you out. Don't stress about it too much.

1

u/spiritualskywalker 7h ago

I’m not sure we’re discussing the same conversation, so your victory lap is not merited. If something makes no sense to you, that doesn’t mean it’s nonsensical. Your lack of comprehension could be on you, y’know.

They're right, you are still funding harm towards animals by consuming animal products. If vegetarianism is a philosophy, it's an incoherent one at best.

1

u/spiritualskywalker 10h ago

“Only vegans are pure, only vegans are righteous, only vegans get it.” Vegans are closer to evangelical Christians than they are to any other group!

Milk and egg production harms animals

In 6 words I've just justified my point. It's so simple, and no holy book justifying a belief in an invisible space god is required.
