Vegans are like religious people: most of them are totally fine. It's the preachy and overly defensive ones that suck.
Would you also consider it preachy when people criticize other cases of animal harm, like bullfighting or dog beating, or is it just the financing of factory farming that can't be criticized? If not, what's the difference? It's troublesome that people enforce a social stigma that you can't talk about what we do to farm animals without suffering social consequences.
Dude made a joke at preachy hypocrites who kill a shitload of dogs. Lighten up and save your strawmen for another time.
Who kills a shitload of dogs? I think you replied to the wrong comment.
Peta do. They operate a shitload of shelters, none of which are no-kill.
You wrote vegans, not peta. Most vegans have nothing to do with Peta.
In this case I was talking about the OP tweet exchange, in which a guy replies specifically to peta
And in my other comments I wasn't referring to vegans in general either, only the preachy and overdefensive ones. All the vegans I know IRL are good people who aren't constantly preachy and defensive.
I have never seen a vegan preach, here or on reddit. But i have seen hundreds of comments complaining about preachy vegans.
That's a streaming load of horse shit. You're evidently wearing ideological blinders rivaling those of religious fundamentalists.
And unfortunately the preachy ones are the only ones ever speaking up
