I don't know how it goes for you but in my case, if things go to shit, it's always when I answer why I'm vegan => because I don't want to hurt animals. From then, I can say whatever I want, it's too late, I'm forced into a moral superiority contest even though I don't give a flying fuck about where I stand on the morality ladder.

I lead similarly with "i love animals" and then i watch to see how much cognitive dissonance they have

The vegan place to discuss things.

Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of animals, humans and the environment. In dietary terms it denotes the practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from animals.
