If you want to be vegan, more power to you. But please talk to your doctor first (and optionally do a bunch of reading from non-specifically-vegan sources about how the food is grown). The nutrition-feasibility, health benefits, and current, real-world environmental impact are frequently and loudly lied about by vegans.
Or they don’t want to hurt animals unnecessarily or be complicit in the environmental devastation of meat production.
I’m a vegetarian and I’ve never heard vegans say that. The craziest online voices are not an accurate representation of a group.
Wait vegans hate vegetarians AND love people who eat meat 6 days a week? You’re accusing them of being fanatically doctrinal and too accepting. When you accuse a group of mutually exclusive traits, you’re thinking of a stereotype and not reality.
I’ve been vegetarian for 20+ years and have recieved nothing but love and support from vegans. Even one person I knew that was so committed she changed her last name to Govegan. I did recieved some chastisement from a plant based person for not knowing the difference between plant based and vegan, but they were also very anti-vegan.
