I am not “going out of my way to play the persecuted martyr”, I opened the Lemmy home page and “post trashing vegans” was post #3. I thought I left this shit behind when I left reddit, but now it’s here too.
Not using animal products is not exhausting. I’ve done it for a decade and it’s a remarkably easy change where 99% of the difficulty comes from the wider society being hostile to it.
It is an ethical position based on an actual reality of animal agriculture causing vast suffering that we have chosen to opt out of supporting. It is absolutely reasonable and selfless to advocate for the rights of others at a minor, negligible personal sacrifice. It is not a sign of a need to shame others, a need to be a martyr, or any other personality defect that you’re going to project on vegans based on a stereotype despite knowing NOTHING about any of us as individuals. Nobody is trying to make you “feel ashamed”, we are pointing out objective facts about how the animal ag industry causes harm to animals, and then people like you, like you’re doing in this comment, right here, launch into this whole frigging diatribe about how vegans are shaming you and judging you and have a god complex and should just shut up and go back into their corners, because god forbid anyone should ever suggest that anything you’re doing is less than perfectly ethical.
It’s bullshit. I don’t know what else to tell you. I’ve been living with this for years and it’s absolute bullshit. Your position is wrong, it’s not a statement about you as a person, it’s a statement you should change your behavior. We are NOT at fault for showing the truth of the matter, that’s just a reactionary and ignorant position that people use to try to rationalize what’s convenient for them.
There’s absolutely no way, based on everything you’ve already said, that reading that novel will be worth the time and effort. Go take a nap or something.
Yeah, you have time for acting like a 10 year old and “I know you are but what am I” but reading 4 whopping paragraphs about how you’re wrongfully antagonizing other people is too much for you. I’m trying to keep it civil here, so all I’ll say, this isn’t acceptable behavior for an adult.
Time for the old block button I think. Wish it actually worked the right way on Lemmy and stopped people from responding to you.
I for one much prefer it that way. People abused it too much to “win” arguments like the dude up there did. Also to spread misinformation unchallenged.
It’s pointless anyway as creating an Alt account is easy

Not impressed.
True, I’m not.

that is the right way. if you don’t like how lemmy works, you can submit a patch or find another platform.

By the way you posted 61 messages jusr today, a lot of which are multi paragraph. Do you have something called a “life”?
