What happened in the vegan community?

I hadn’t heard about any of this until seeing that ToS post.

    their vitriol is…weird. if they just said “i prefer…” not many would be bothered.

    “you’re a murderer.” does tend to ruffle feathers.

      Forreal, longtime vegan here… Vegans (online mostly) annoy me more than most people. I swear we aren’t all jerks! I’m probably a major sell out, I don’t even have a problem with hunters.

      A lot of us are murderers in that way. Or accomplices, whatever. The thing about vegans specifically is that there’s not any moral need for it. The goodness to animals would make you vegetarian. Not having cheese or eggs is not the slightest bit morally better.
