RE: Joe Rogan Needs A Mindware Upgrade - Vegans are Not Earth's Enemy! (Project Much?)
Personally, I know many militant vegans. Usually they are people new to veganism and therefore get a bit overly excited when it comes to the subject. However, most vegans are generally pretty chill, fact based people.
I agree with this! ‘Baby’ vegans are usually the most angry because it’s so fresh. When I first became vegan I told everyone I knew that i was a vegan, even people I didn’t know or that didn’t ask. I wanted to start conversations just to be able to throw facts at people. I have since calmed down and only address things when necessary. I will talk all day long to someone who will listen but will quickly end a conversation if it seems to be turning angry. Calm, rational conversations are the only ones I will have because I don’t need to give vegans any more of a negative reputation than we have unfortunately. A reputation I believe we have due to people’s own guilt more than the militant vegan.
Yup, same here. I just chill and mind my own business nowadays. If people ask about it, I give them the facts. For the most part I focus on leading by example.
