McMonster08 4,528 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 2 minutes ago, Dorothy Gale said: What did you think vegetarian meant? People who don't consume meat, of course but I didn't know there's more to that which makes vegan different from vegetarian. "Neither vegans nor vegetarians eat meat. However, while vegetarians tend to consume dairy products and eggs, a vegan avoids all animal products, including eggs and dairy, and often inedible animal-based products, such as leather, wool, and silk. Vegetarianism is usually a diet, while veganism is a lifestyle. Vegetarians often choose their diet based on its reported health benefits or for religious or political reasons. In general, vegans have much stronger political beliefs regarding their diet, with some believing animals should be protected under many of the same laws that humans are."

ThomastheMonster 288 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 The irony, someone doesn't eat meat and dairy so I'm going to kill them. Sounds more like omnivorism is a cult to me. People piss me off with their extreme uneducated opinions 🙄 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SKANK 14,288 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Anthony Bourdain compared vegans to Hezbollah, and ironically thinks they are "self-indulgent" and "the enemy of everything good in humanity." He'd probably loose his job had he said anything remotely similar about any other minority, but we have decided as a culture that targeting vegans with abuse is totally acceptable.

They have more self control in their pinky then most of us do in our entire bodies. But I'm just talking about those who try to force their views on the world and in an extremist type of way. Unfortunately it is very common in the vegan community. Still respect you guys though. It's easy to get heated, but vegans are trying to better the world, and when you realize that animal products are inherently cruel you definitely lose patience, but I see what you're saying.

Bio 23,538 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 I hate that just the fact that some people like to eat meat and some people don't is another reason to divide us all. It's just so stupid. People should listen to Come To Mama more often Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bio 23,538 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Just now, Dorothy Gale said: The issues around meat are a lot more complex. I like to eat meat, but I'm vegan because I don't like to hurt animals. I know it's a complex issue but in the end you can't force anyone to think like you do. If you don't eat meat, that's great. You can inform other people that do eat meat about how it's hurtful to animals and in your opinion shouldn't be done. That's the most you can do. If the issue is not important enough to that person that makes them give up eating meat than it's their choice. You can't shun people out because of that. And people who do eat meat also can't force vegans to think differently. It all should be discussed but we can't let it divide us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
