Comment on Maybe this is better for everyone
MapleEngineer@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoNo one hates vegans. Almost everyone hates vegan extremists. No one cares what you eat. You want to eat brown slop and claim its the best thing ever fill your boots. You want a vegan pet, get a rabbit. Just don’t try to shake everyone else into doing what you want and don’t feed a carnivore a vegan diet and no one will say anything.

There are so many dishes you can make with plants and yet you choose the term “slop”

I’ve seen some of the pictures that have been posted in c/vegan. Some of them were literally brown slop. My family eats a number of vegetarian and vegan dishes along with those that contain meat. I don’t care what anyone wants to eat, even if it is brown slop.

You’re choosing the worst looking examples of plant-based foods to suit your claim, any soap could be considered slop.
You can make salads, tacos, burgers, bread, desserts all with plants.

Yes, I’m definitely picking the worst examples to illustrate my point just as someone else used the word, “murder” (the killing of one human being by another) four times when referring to non-humans.
I haven’t seen any posts come up in All where I said, “That looks really good. I would eat that.” I remember several photos of puddles of lumpy goo where I thought, “Ew”.
I’ve eaten plenty of vegetarian and vegan meals that I thought were delicious. I have no problem with vegetarians or vegans. I have a real problem with extremists no matter how they mistakenly believe that they are absolutely superior.
