Not to sound like a dumbass, but just for future reference. Since this "purity" shit is used by hogs like Modi, should I refrain from joking that veganism gives you "psychic powers"? I know it's silly and obviously tongue-in-cheek, but I don't want to sound like someone like Modi.
Nah not at all. Their notion of "purity" is more about calling others "impure" than putting positive connotations on vegetarians. So, you can definitely say "veganism gives your psychic power" but probably refrain from saying "eating meat makes you impure" to an Indian Muslim.
