Vegans on the internet seem like a psy-op and full of trolls. The vegans I meet are rarely that fucking crazy.
The cost of meat has gotten so expensive over the past decade that they vegan/vegetarian alternative is so much cheaper. I’m not a vegan. I’m just not going to spend $40 for a chunk of steak.
Even at dinner parties, I make tofu/vegan stuff. I make chicken patties, spaghetti and meatballs, Asian stir fry… All using mock protein. I tell people and they’re convinced it’s good too.
It’s the same concept of people being assholes online, but applied to those belief structures. They are just taking the freedom that anonymity provides and acting like their true selves. They’re just too afraid to be such insufferable assholes in person because of the response they KNOW they would receive.
Kudos man.
