    “Farmers are weird therefore vegans aren’t”

    🤦‍♂️

        I’ve dated vegan girls that were into some weird stuff. Granted, it was weird stuff between consenting sapient adults…

          By shifting the metaphor from “Earth as mother” to “Earth as lover” we aim to entice people to develop a more mutual, pleasurable, sustainable, and less destructive relationship with the environment.

          While quirky, this is definitively less weird than OP’s disgusting image

          So there exists some group using a weird metaphor, and somehow that is just as representative of vegans as a video of how farming works is of farmers…?

            Way to shift that goalpost. You very clearly said “any vegan”, if you meant something else you should have said something else.

              I guess I have to caveat my phrasing even when it’s super obvious what was meant. Everyone knows you could’ve found a single example of a vegan doing something bizarre, yet it wouldn’t be remotely relevant unless it were at least a semi-popular trend.

              Hint: “everyone” in this comment doesn’t literally mean every human in existence.
