Reminded me of this
Is this saying I am not going to be vegan because I am annoyed with vegans? Because I am not sure how this applies, unless you are grouping me with the vegans who are annoyed with vegans.
It's the "this extreme stance" as a response to the meme "leftism leaving people's bodies as animal exploitation is brought up." This is a super milquetoast critique and it gives the same vibe of "please be respectful to people of all kinds" getting a big reaction.
E: also most vegans are annoyed by other vegans so its pretty accurate
Maybe "extreme" was the wrong word, I mean divisive. Its unnecessarily divisive and makes me not want want to label myself as a vegan even if I do only eat plant based.
I mean maybe, just to me it feels the same as the posts saying "no billionaires mfs when it's gabe newell" and it's someone saying "I did not see anything." Sort of like, dang I do like this thing but I guess they have a bit of a point there. Idk judging by how many people say it's divisive maybe it is more divisive than it feels to me, but it's hard to tell because a lot of people also use that as a way to shove it to the "don't think about it" category.
