What happened in the vegan community?

I hadn't heard about any of this until seeing that ToS post.

Vegans do a better job of pissing everyone off about a pretty sensible topic than any community I’ve ever seen

their vitriol is...weird. if they just said "i prefer..." not many would be bothered.

"you're a murderer." does tend to ruffle feathers.

Forreal, longtime vegan here.... Vegans (online mostly) annoy me more than most people. I swear we aren't all jerks! I'm probably a major sell out, I don't even have a problem with hunters.

Honestly as a linux nerd sometimes I feel like us open source folks have a similar problem

You do a bunch of work and make sacrifices to accomplish living in a way you feel proud of! Wonderful! And then you turn around and antagonize people who don't invest all their time and energy in the issue that you personally really connect with...! Oh... Wonderful... 🙃

As someone who's been working tech for two decades, the more assbaggy the linux user the less they actually know.

i believe you, it's something to do with being online.
