    The “Vegans are loud and annoying” crowd are more loud and annoying than actual vegans in my personal experience.

      Often when society had an extreme default position on a topic, its defenders sound batshit insane.

      See:

      • Gay and trans rights
      • Reproductive rights
      • Veganism
      • Unregulated capitalism
      • Homelessness

      So true. I’m not vegan, but someone proudly yelling about how much meat they eat is so fucking cringe. Very “suck it, libs” mindset.

      But you probably won’t get called a murderer 20 seconds into the discussion though.

        You’d be surprised. Both “The farming of your plants kills more animals than livestock raising” and “veganism is genocide because they’ll stop breeding the animals if we stop eating them” unironocally come up almost instantly when I talk about it and I’m not even quite vegan, I just avoid animal products because of allergies to a lot of them…
