tim-clark@kbin.social 2 months agoZero interest in converting anyone to vegan. I don't care what anyone eats, it is their choice. Only interested in reducing waste and the population. Work towards an achievable goal. I will never be vegan due to my health issues, as you have conveniently glossed over. It doesn't work for everyone, it's in the same vain as telling everyone the need to eat peanuts.

The really cool thing about actually every person I’ve met or heard of online, in person, etc. is anytime they’re not vegan due to a health issue, they can’t actually say what that health issue is.
People are genuinely more open about any other aspect of their health or mental state. People more readily open up about their schizophrenia or suicidal-level depression than whatever mysterious health issue “prevents veganism”.
It’s cool too, because there is actually no medical issue that prevents veganism. Every major health association has come out and said a vegan diet is suitable for literally all people at all stages of life. That might seem reductive, until you realize how many different vegan foods there are. You’re likely able to eat beans, lettuce, and rice, and those 3 things alone have sustained poor people for decades. Living in a rich western country makes this vastly easier too.
It’s just funny hearing the broad, fake excuse because so many people use it when it’s totally incoherent by the account of every major medical association.
