How are there so many anti-vegans who go to vegan spaces/discussions to post their ”I like eating meat tho” tier bullshit? Fine, then you can fuck off. The irony is that vegans supposedly can't shut up about , but I see way more of this online.
Probably this is already a really basic psychological concept that I re-invented, but anyway.
Sounds like cognitive dissonance to me. I get, I also used to do the ”actually vegan diets aren't as good as you vegoons think” stuff before I figured out that the best way to get rid of cognitive dissonance was to just be vegan.
I never would've gone to spaces specifically for vegans to proclaim how awesome meat was, though. Do these people think there's a Medal of Edgy Contrarianism in it for them or something?
I think my biggest regret is saying that I'm vegan at work. Now people talk about what they ate over the weekend or whatever, remember that I'm vegan, and then start talking about their reasoning behind why eating fish is okay. I didn't ask bro
And it's like, I care, but you don't want to have the conversation and I don't have time for it in the brief spaces where we can talk.
My favorite story after I came over to the veganside:
At my last job a co-worker called my for help on a system and went on a 5 minute unprovoked tirade about vegans. Like just went off and went down the list checking each carnist talking point along the way. Just very unhinged.
After he got done, I said " you know I'm vegan, right?"
This mother fucker went on and said " oh well I don't care what vegans eat as long as they don't shove it down my throat."
And I'm not even joking but the next thing he fucking said was "you eat chicken tho right?"

This resonated with me. Fuck it, I might give this vegan thing a try.

You can't write this shit.
I thought I'd just say I was vegan early to prevent the awkwardness of denying every offered meal, as a treat.
How do you know when someone's vegan?
Don't worry, you'll be able to tell by the small crowd gathered around them asking them inane questions like:
"But what if the animal consents though?"
"If you were stranded on a deserted island..."
"If everyone went vegan then wouldn't that make farm animals go extinct?"
"What about if I tell you that for every piece of meat that you don't eat, I'll eat two?"
etc. etc.
