You can put another check in your daily tally of being annoying and out of tune with the tone of a conversation in the name of your cause. Veganism is officially something I agree with but will avoid because I'm lazy and also because of how every thread on social media has to contain a tone-deaf post with veganism as the answer to the question. Becoming a stereotype is one way to get you all caps message out. Please combine it with annoying people into changing. Veganism is essentially synonymous with loudly interjecting yourself into every remotely related subject. At this point I am not sure if there are real vegans online or just trolls trying to make them look annoying. Yall are right, but your delivery needs work.
raised vegan by my folks, in the 80s, against my will. nothing wrong with choosing a diet but forcing it on someone is what turns off many from veganism
