That's what everyone keeps asking the vegans and they just change the subject

I'm a long way from my time in school but I thought fossil fuels were formed from decomposition of plant matter.

Because the identity politics of the far right can't brag about how it's policies have never worked outside the ivory tower, so they need hatred and toxicity to rally the mentally ill to their banner.

Probably some deeply internalized guilt. I'm not vegan, but if you take your head out of the sand for two seconds it's obvious that animal products are really fucking bad. So are lots of things though and you have to pick your battles, reduction is okay too. I also don't approve of vegan guilt-tripping, but ultimately I'd much rather have someone be a dick about how they try to do the right thing than someone be a dick about doing a bad thing

The hell are you talking about about. They are tasty and nutritious products made from ocean planktons. I just hope 2022 comes sooner so I will be able to purchase these treats.

Nah. I'll happily shit on vegans, and I don't give a fuck about how horribly they treat the animals that are just going to wind up in my hamburger.

If I shit on vegans at all, it's usually because I've known preachy or judgmental vegans who won't shut the fuck up about it, so it starts to feel like fair play to throw the same sort of thing right back in their faces.

That being said...

I've met those vegans. On the other hand, it was mainly when I was in college years ago, and my college was pretty hard Left-leaning.

Also, at that time, people who were choosing that lifestyle were a LOT more inclined to be assholes about it, because it appealed to their sense of exceptionalism and made them feel superior to others. These days, vegans and the vegan lifestyle in general has become a lot more mainstream, so it's much easier to know any number of people who are vegans who aren't assholes about it. So you're mostly seeing the backlash to how a lot of vegans used to be but aren't necessarily now.

I'd say it falls into the same category as people who are straight-edge - pretty much every straight-edge person I ever knew was a preachy asshole and usually just shits in general, and it spurred a LOT of that sort of "Oh yeah? Well, I am going to drink this beer directly in front of you because you're a dick" kind of backlash. But you can be teetotal without being a straight-edge asshole. You can even (in theory) be straight-edge without being a straight-edge asshole. But the assholes ruined it for everyone else.

Which is pretty much just life in general right there.

I wonder how many times vegans are actually "preachy" or "elitist" vs people just being uncomfortable when they explain their motivation behind it and interpreting it as an attack

Prolly since most filters are made of plastic which comes from petroleum. Imagine having to cut all plastics out of one's life, that'd be really tough!

everyone who wants to be cool and appear better than you will write on their instagram or something that they're a vegan. Honestly, who cares what you eat or don't eat, you're certainly not better than anyone no matter how hard you try to sell it

I'm not a vegan lol. You can do things that you also think are bad. I don't think that makes you a hypocrite unless you're acting like you don't do them. People just need to get over themselves. For however many annoying vegans there are there have to be at least as many annoying meat eaters who go through some insane fallacious logic to justify it, or do some labored "well ackshually vegans are bad" (like this very topic). Just saying you like it and think it would be difficult to change is all you need to do
