Seen a lot of posts on Lemmy with vegan-adjacent sentiments but the comments are typically very critical of vegan ideas, even when they don’t come from vegans themselves. Why is this topic in particular so polarising on the internet? Especially since unlike politics for example, it seems like people don’t really get upset by it IRL

      look at the difference between someone saying they like something vs someone saying they don’t.

      positive vs negative conversations.

      people share about “that great steak at bob’s”, but less so “that great hummus”.

      Not even Trump talks about chickpee.
