Out of all the types of annoying douchebags in the world, hypocrites are the worst.

Please show her a book to read. It seems that knowledge from reading is become a hipster thing.

I have been reading various posts and I want to say a few things: 1. Veganism is NOT done to prove moral superiority 2. WHAT you eat is a choice, WHO you eat should not be 3. Plants do NOT have central nervous systems, nor do they have sentience 4. Veganism is NOT only a diet, it is a way of looking at the world and all beings in it with compassion 5.Many vegans would be thrilled with any small changes toward compassion, only the few give the rest a bad name 6. Plant based diets really do have many significant health benefits 7. The absolute destruction of the animals, earth, and environment caused by farming harms all of us, whether we choose to eat meat or not. Choosing compassion is better all around 8. Many animals we murder daily are smarter or as smart as human children (scientifically proven) 9. The resources wasted on farming (land, water, grains,forests cut down) could feed and sustain millions or billions of people 10. Our lack of spiritual development as a species is causing us to plunge headlong into our own destruction by not seeing how far off course we are. This includes farming, greed, deforestation, oil spills, nuclear accidents,etc ad infinitum. The facts (scientific, biological, environmental, ethical, and spiritual) show that veganism is probably the best choice in every category. With that being said, at least keep these things in mind. Before I am asked, no I am not fully vegan. I am vegetarian with periods of veganism. I DO however adhere to the other facets of vegan outlook that transcend the dietary considerations, such as recycling, reducing, conservation of electricity and water, trying to work on helping humanity and animals, and trying to make a positive impact on the earth and environment by my day to day actions. We can all do things to improve our lives, which in turn improves EVERYONE's lives. Good luck and God bless!

I hate her for one of three reasons: A - she's a hypocrite, B - she doesn't know the difference between vegan and vegetarian, and C - she clearly has no consideration for others' POV.

Calm down. 57 got thumbed down because, although his facts were true, he was being a buzzkill. I'm sure that in a serious conversation most of the people on here would agree that it's inhumane to raise animals under the common unethical conditions.

What did I buzzkill? The comment wasn't that funny, people are only liking it because it's a false argument justifying meat eating

How is she a vegan if she is eating fish?

Here I go: Being a vegetarian doesn't benefit the planet like -that-: While they try not to harm any animals by living or eating the way they do, vegetarians and vegans would just be putting more demand on plant life, and while there are health benefits to a plant-based diet. Having little demand on animal produce and meat would almost certainly cause the *DEER POPULATION TO SPIKE* and other animal life to flourish in way it shouldn't(shouldn't because human-environment interaction demands it shouldn't) would put quite a strain on plant life. Humans are omnivores, and before we thought of ourselves with this whole "do this, do that" system, we ate like omnivores. It's population control, just like cordyceps. Each ecosystem that makes up a biome has a max-sustainable population, right? so why go against it? The whole pale and scronny stereotype: Everybody looks different. There are many plant-based foods that contain more protein, or iron than meat could ever dream of containing, also, protein usually just fuels and repairs the body, it hardly determines how bulky and dark you'll look. Pescatarian: There are people in the world who become sick or have reactions to eating meat that doesn't come from fish. Hence the legality of the term "pescatarian". Plants are living things and -do- react to human stimuli, their reaction can be seen through the use of a Kirlian camera "lol, what the hell is organic tuna?" Health benefits: switching from a meat-based diet(main course on-plate is a meat) to a plant-based diet(main course on-plate is a plant) can significantly lower your risk of developing cancers, and this can be scientifically graphed and has a direct correlation. oh and hi!

Please don't let this person ruin your views on vegans in general. They're not all assholes, I promise. I'm not vegan, but I know quite a few and it's just a really bad stereotype. Vegans = people: some are shitty, some are not. They're not any more or less annoying than your average omnivore. Like I said, bad stereotype. And people like this person you mention in your FML are the ones who make it worse for the rest of the sane vegan population.

Tuna is a vegetable... Really!!

Jesus gave people fish.

got news for her, she ain't a vegan
