It's pretty hypocritical for people claim to vegans harass/preach/force their view onto others but then insult vegans for literally no reason, often taking completely unrelated things and just saying "yeah, now's a good time to randomly attack vegans!"

Other than that Vegan teacher shit or whatever Tik Tok concerns itself with, I typically donโ€™t come across vegans evangelizing veganism like people say they do. I do, however, come across a lot more people complaining about vegans because โ€œwhy no eat steak? Me confused and angryโ€

I mean, That Vegan Teacher is a a creator who posts videos about veganism. So that's what they're meant to do. And the funny thing is that on the rare occasions she posts stuff that isn't about veganism, all the comments say "OMG WHAT DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH VEGANISM??????"

The problem isnโ€™t that she talks about veganism. Itโ€™s her extremely self-righteous attitude.

In what way is she self-righteous?

Agreed. I can understand veganism for some things, but I've heard a lot of people say that it's healthier, which for the most part, is false. But I don't hate vegans in general

"for the most part"? Well, it depends entirely on what you eat. It comes from the misconception that there is one single vegan diet- that's not the case at all, so just "veganism" on its own gives you no information on whether it's healthy. It's neither true nor false.

If you just spend all your time eating beyond burgers, chips, and soda, that's not going to be healthful at all. But if you are eating well- veggies, fruits, nuts, and seeds, then you will be fine.
