As I said before this is an unsafe site for Indigenous people. I’m out. Don’t bother DMing me. I’m scrambling my password and locking myself out of my own account. I’ve grown to care for and trust a lot of you so it’s hard to leave but it is clear that this site isn’t for me. I understand that the world and internet at large is really shitty to vegans so I understand and support the need for a safe space to process your experiences and to practice your dunks. All the best, signing off.

I've had vegans around me my entire life and with one exception, none of them act as rotten as the ones on this website.

2nd paragraph is facts. Nothing but love for my vegan friends IRL. Yet the racist ones here make me wanna grill up burgers for dinner tonight as a fuck you lol

Same lol
Besides both of them being incredibly fussy eaters I've never had any issues with them. At worst I've had trouble finding us a place to eat, but that's not really on them.
Exactly my last ex is vegan and I have probably 3-4 vegans in my circle of friends and acquaintances. I respect their choices and they respect mine... it’s very simple. based on what I’ve seen overall I wouldn’t be surprised at all if some of the vegans on here would call me the N word if they were to come across me in real life at a BBQ lmao the yt vegans on here comparing eating meat to slavery fit the type. Then the casual racism toward our Asian and indigenous comrades on here. Shit’s crazy lol and a lot of the mods are being supportive or at least sympathetic with their actions. Literally less tolerant than many actual lib communities I’ve dipped my toes into, but most people here are cool so it’s all good

I was gonna actually become a vegan at first, but now I'm reconsidering it cause of these people ngl
I have very close friends who are religious "vegans" (they do not use any equal term). I respect them a lot and will come eat with them any day. They are nothing like this, and yet they are the most devoted to being vegan, it is their divine order! Vegans have a lot to contribute and are important. I want to hear from them. If I could enough I would probably become.
The way these user act is more like the way I was treated by some during the time in my life where I was living as a Chinese minority in Indonesia. They do not understand and will not listen, trying to make me follow the Muslim customs and berating my culture. (many people I met were also very nice though)
