*please note i deeply value and respect the vegan movement. i am just critical of how humorously it precipitates in online spaces, particularly this one. :)

    Ok, that’s it. You have officially crossed the line from a zealot spewing increasingly false equivalences to saying that everyone who doesn’t agree with you is equivalent to slave owners and fascists.

    I’m done indulging your self-righteous hallucinations. Have the day you deserve.

    PS: No, I’m not from the US or southern Europe. I chose the abortion example because of complete topical symmetry, not because it’s a hot topic here in Denmark. It hasn’t been since the 1970s.

      I’m not vegan, although I agree with most of their arguments, so I can’t be self-righteous about it.

      saying that everyone who doesn’t agree with you is equivalent to slave owners and fascists.

      Since English is not your first language, I apologise if my wording was confusing. My point was that accepting whatever is seen as normal, or refusing to make a choice, is itself an action, one that says that you agree with your society’s ideology.
