    Non-vegan here. I was going to reply one time, but even tho I was supporting y’all I realized it’s not really my place to speak. This community is supposed to be your safe space, and I respect that. I hope y’all have a good one and wish you all luck.

      Gotta ask, if you support vegans/veganism I assume that means you take it as at least more right than wrong. Is that the case? if so what’s holding you back from joining our feeble, protein deficient ranks?

      I just ask because personally I spent a few years being like “Yeah these people are correct and don’t deserve the hate but oysters? Is that really a priority concern?” before realising that was a baffling stance and I should align my actions with the 99% I agreed with and worry about the rest later if it ever came up.

        Fair question. Right now I live with my family, and basically everything we make has meat in it and since I don’t cook I don’t really get a say in it. Everything I choose to eat for myself is vegetarian, so I’m at doing a little.

        Even tho it’s hard for me to stop rn, it’s not like you guys are wrong about the horrible conditions and treatment of animals in farms so it would be hard for me to argue against y’all.

          It can be difficult if you’re not managing your own food, you can of course choose what you wear or eat when you get food out and so on. That is vegan. It is not a purity cult, it is about doing what we can.
