Someone made my comment into a secret, yay :)

Uh, reading it over again I wanted to mention I am not anti-vegan. I support everyone's personal lifestyle choices about that kind of thing. I'm the same person that made the secret about enjoying the openly vegan Twitch streamer from before, who I respect for not giving a shit about gamer fandom and their dumb "soy boy" jokes.

But like, there's "open about the fact that you are vegan," which the Twitch guy does, which is cool, and then there's "addressing your viewers directly and telling them to go vegan or they're speciesists who don't care about animals," which this Youtube channel started doing all of a sudden, which is gross.

There was also a weird argument by the creator in the comments asking people why they'd adopt a cat, when you could rescue herbivore pets that eat vegetables instead (??????????????) Fans really didn't like that one for obvious reasons

It was weird watching the channel suddenly go off the deep end in real time. I will miss their cute videos :(

Um.........really?
'Herbivore pets' are a bit more specialized and difficult to care for than a cat, and most gerbils (for instance) don't really want cuddles.

And not everybody has a big field or whatever to support a 'rescue cow' or something.

That's a bit silly, yeah.

the way vegans are happy to ignore the circle of life as it were to make out like anything can exist on plants or it doesn't matter is ridiculous and pisses me off.

That's not what vegans do. They think people and animals domesticated and brought into this world for human purposes should curb or eliminate consuming and harming other animals as much as possible. They aren't like advocating for the extinction of predators or something. That's absurd.

Uh well this vegan literally said you shouldn't rescue cats and get herbivorous pets instead...

I mean there also are plenty of idiot vegans who insist you can feed a cat vegan food.

The vegans I have and who are in my political sphere are as I described. I'm glad to hear there are others and I hope more take that frame of mind.

Vegan here. The militant vegans like the one the OP mentions are an embarrassment to us all. I've made my choices, happy to talk about why if asked. But as far as I'm concerned diet is a personal decision and nobody else's business. Also people who feed cats and dogs no meat are idiots guilty of negligence.

Sorry to disabuse you but lots of them do in fact do exactly that, if only by refusing to acknowledge nature as frequently carnivorous. They are absurd.

Nayrt

Then you haven't been talking to the right vegans. But I am afraid many of us are closeted because of how aggressively our views are attacked when we bring it up.

It's not about denying nature. It's about ending with the insanity that is industrial meat production.
