Seen a lot of posts on Lemmy with vegan-adjacent sentiments but the comments are typically very critical of vegan ideas, even when they don’t come from vegans themselves. Why is this topic in particular so polarising on the internet? Especially since unlike politics for example, it seems like people don’t really get upset by it IRL

    I understand your point and I agree. But a lot of privileged people (i’m included in that) should definitely consume less meat or none at all.

    This is a strange argument that the problem with vegans is that they don’t do enough for the poor?

    I haven’t seen any vegans protesting in a 7/11. It’s usually high end butcher or restaurants.

    So again, I agree with what you say, but it doesn’t make sense in the current frame of discussion.
