Most aren't going out of their way to say shit, they simply *have to* mention it in most cases to simply explain. And so every interaction with vegans I see goes along the lines of, "here I made this" / "I'm sorry I can't, I'm vegan." / "oh shut up about it already!"

And in the end, they're doing something of tremendous willpower than I can't do. So I look up to them the same way I look up to anyone supremely committed to genuine loving ethics.

And if you insist I'm wrong, that "no way hulk, vegans are sooooo annoying!" but I want you to seriously take time and reflect on how it really is. Because I think you've just brought into the wrong narrative.

Remember, you don't have to be a vegan. But we've really got to be so much better about how we regard vegans on the pop culture level. Especially because, in the end, you're the ones who can't shut up about them. END RANT.

Quick little adding note! There are absolutely some hugely important valid discussions when it comes to the way being vegan intersects with class / culture / racism - this rant was just about the larger popular way the notion itself treated with ugliness. Thanks + cheers!

Perhaps you have not had evangelistic vegans harassing you bc you have allergies that prevent you from vegan diet survival. It's happened 5x in the past year. & To other disabled ppl who cannot survive on a vegan diet. Educate ppl who are seeking. Leave everyone else alone.
