Welcome to the Vegan Theory Club Weekly Megathread!

Question of the week:

"Tell me about a discussion you've had with the intent of guiding someone towards veganism? How did it go? What could you have done differently?

Feel free to talk about anything, whether it’s vegan-related or not. This is a chill space for connecting, sharing ideas, and supporting each other.

Looking forward to hearing what everyone’s up to!

    Anyway, I am not a vegan myself but I support veganism and I can see that you have positive intentions with this instance. I think that it’s a valuable space and component of the fediverse and I hope it continues to grow. I hold a great deal of admiration and respect for vegans, especially those who do it for ethical reasons.

    Got curious and went outside of my HB bubble and saw this. I'd just like to say, if you claim to support veganism, but don't care to actually be a vegan, then no you fucking don't.

      Yeah that made me cringe a bit.

      If you admire people doing a behaviour just do it yourself. We're all garbage here; going vegan requires no great intelligence, moral fortitude, wealth, or ability.

      Literally all you have to do is not buy some stuff. Boom, you're vegan now. Congrats.
