I credit an intense compassion for animals and resulting veganism to my autism.

Just wanted to put that in the thread without making it a direct response to anyone. Sometimes it can be incredibly alienating and disconcerting to encounter people online who say they can’t be vegan because they’re autistic. It’s a very diverse spectrum with a multitude of manifestations, and I’d like to go on record as proof that it swings toward the positive and not just the negative.
