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

    I don’t think you’ve understood the arguments for veganism lol

    Of course proponents of a position/philosophy/political stace also subscribe to those beliefs. There are not many misogynists arguing in favor of feminism.

      Counter argument: Problem is not too many cows. It is too many people.

        So just kill yourself then, it’s literally that easy? Or are you suggesting to kill other people so you can keep enjoying your McTasty? Carnists are weird AF

          You have restricted your diet, yet the hatred pores from your vegtable fueled/addled brain.

          I think you have proven my point.

          Thank you.

            So the answer isn’t to eat less animals, it’s to kill people to get our population down?

            For the record, my wife and I chose to not have kids. And in my experience, usually the people that are gung ho to have a large family and lots of kids are right-wing, meat-loving morons.

            How have I proven your point? Your argument was to get rid of people, I just guessed you also offer yourself up? Otherwise what makes you think you can suggest to kill other people?
