Sure, but the average person does not know or care about the distinction. It’s much easier to explain this way. I’ll see if I can incorporate this terminology instead next time though
I agree with you, but this is definitely not an argument you want to go into because it caused an absolute massive shitshow. Check out the top pinned post on Lemmy.world.
I am mostly vegan and my cat and dog eat mostly meat 🖕
Vegan is a philosophy, not a diet. The word you’re looking for is plant-based, not vegan.
A vegan wouldn’t buy leather shoes or woolen sweaters. Someone on a plant-based diet would.

That you for being reasonable and not insane.
vegans care about animals. I assure you it is the norm
Yep. My vegan brother has two dogs and three cats and has no problem giving them meat (or meat-based food anyway) as part of their diet.
It’s not some universal idea that vegans will be okay with keeping meat-eating pets but refuse to give them that meat.
No it’s not a universal idea, but it does happen and it is animal abuse when it does.

I did see that shitshow you refer to.
I realized that was likely true, but the ones who aren’t are just so damn loud about it.
I have met far more people complaining loudly about vegans than I have loud vegans
