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
Yup, if you want to change someone the last thing you do is accuse them. Instead, point them to material about how healthy a plant based diet is, and point out how cheap it is. Or for guys like me, tactfully, point out you have to eat more actual stuff to get the same amount of calories. So big guys can lose weight eating plant based. If you introduce it in a positive way then people feel supported instead of attacked. That’s where veganism went wrong.
