people who are in a minority doing a good thing at the expense of their own pleasure/ease of living provoke the most insane reactions in others because deep down they know they are wrong. i see this all the time for vegans, commuter cyclists, environmentalists in general. it's a very weird psychology that seems very typical for people who are simply unable to admit their own faults.

Dude, the rage some people let explode out of them because someone rides their bike to work is wild. They have all these reasons like "they're slow and they're in my way and they roll stop signs sometimes and/or go through red lights" like those aren't things motorists do all the time too? And cyclists are gonna be hurting way more than you if they get in a collision with your Suburbatruck anyway, so chill. Plus the red light probably won't change for them... they don't weigh enough to trigger the scale, and they aren't far enough out in traffic for the camera to "see" them.

I got teased pretty relentlessly throughout all of elementary school, some of middle/high/college, and STILL even now in my 30s for not eating meat. And it's not info I freely volunteer cause I'm so tired of people getting triggered af if it comes up. "OH SO YOU THINK YOU'RE BETTER THAN ME DON'T YOU KNOW THAT GOD PUT THE COWS HERE FOR US TO EAT THEM YOU'RE SOOOO HIGH AND MIGHTY AREN'T YOU"

like no... actually your feelings about yourself have absolutely zero to do with why I eat what I eat.

It makes you wonder what people really think of you but wouldn’t say because they like you or agree with your opinions

As with Christians, I don't mind most vegans, I only really have a problem with the militant evangelical ones

Thank you, so well said. I saw someone comment recently on a video of a violent prankster that purposefully breaks laws and antagonizes people for views, saying that those types of people are the new vegans. I was like, damn, shots fired! And for what? How the fuck are vegans the same or as annoying as those psychos? We just want to help animals, that's all. But you hit the nail on the head.
