I think a lot of people place value in things that dont matter.
They arent seeing the big picture, and just look at minute details.
I feel the vegans that arent shouting are the ones we should be listening to.
They seem to understand there are ethical ways of eating meat, and they choose to not want to participate.
They arent the ones trying to stop people from eating meat.
I see a lot of vegans that cheat on their diet, too.
Out of the crooked timber of humanity, no straight thing was ever made.
reply
That is true.
I dont really care, to be honest.
But if you ever hang out or go out with them, and they cheat on their diet...they always give an excuse to justify it.
Even if I didnt ask.
reply
That's because they feel guilty about it and don't want you to think less of them.
reply
Right, but it isnt me who is putting the shackles on them.
It was their decision.
reply
Clearly, but imagine someone catching you doing something you think is wrong. You wouldn't be thinking about how it's the shackles that you put on yourself. You'd just be embarrassed.
reply
Wouldnt you think about changing your mindset?
After experiencing it so many times, I dont think they really feel embarrassed.
reply
I can't speak for people I don't know. In my experience, vegans are on their best behavior when others are watching, just like most people.
I'm surprised people who claim to be vegan cheat on it in front of you. They must be very comfortable around you.
reply
I wont lie, though, vegans are good at cooking!
I dont mind a vegan lasagna!
I think it is more because the friendships I have have lasted a long time.
I have seen them go from vegetarian, vegan, and even eat meat.
