Seen a lot of posts on Lemmy with vegan-adjacent sentiments but the comments are typically very critical of vegan ideas, even when they don’t come from vegans themselves. Why is this topic in particular so polarising on the internet? Especially since unlike politics for example, it seems like people don’t really get upset by it IRL

      That moral high ground you’re claiming looks to me like just another niche for life to exist. …but you’re not going to stop predation, carnivorous or omnivorous. That you think it’s a good idea to do so is just eye-rollingly banal.
