Vegans being banned and comments being deleted from [email protected] for being fake vegans.

From my perspective, the comments were in no way insulting and just part of completely normal interaction. If this decision reflects the general opinion of the mod team, then from my perspective, the biggest vegan community on Lemmy wants to be an elitist cycle of hardcore vegans only, not allowing any slightly different opinion. Which would be very unfortunate.

PS: In contrast to the name of this community, I don’t want to insult anyone here being a ‘bastard’. I just want to post this somewhere on neutral ground. I would really appreciate an open discussion without bashing anyone.

    And if I and all other vegans started eating meat, they’d need to produce even more.

    You do realise me eating meats means the world has to produce more meat right?

    If Billy has 5 marbles, and Johnny asks for a marble, Billy now has 4 marbles. Billy will have to get another marble to have 5 again.

    If Johnny doesn’t ask for marble, Billy will still have 5 marbles.

    Am I going to fast for you?

        Billy is making marbles. Billy now has five marbles. Johnny buys all five marbles. Billy now has to make more.

        One day, Johnny stops buying marbles. Question, does Billy endlessly continue making marbles forever? Or does Billy stop once he realises demand is causally linked to supply?

        Let me know if this is still too complex.

          but meat continues to be made in greater quantities ever since you stopped buying it. your theory doesn’t hold up.

            Oh you’re being obtuse, okay. Maybe when you’ve grown up a little and can understand cause and effect you can have this conversation. Finish high school maybe? Get a degree, come back to me when you can actually talk with the intelligent people.

            I’m going to treat you like a toddler, because I genuinely don’t think you have the capacity for anything more. Here we go!

            Billy no make marbles because people no buy anymore. Billy too many marbles!

      there is no reason to believe more could have been produced than already was.
