I think YOU are missing the point of the first comment and MY point.
They said that they are infuriated by people name-calling them, somebody said “see how you like it” and… I wasn’t infuriated.
Insane that anti-vegan people (who have generally fallen for right-wing propaganda) are so bandwagony that you are getting upvoted for being so very incorrect.
not implying they are right wing at all, that wasn’t my intention. Try re-reading it.
Nah, op is correct.
So the first comment in this thread did not say they were infuriated? Is that not what I was originally replying to? Is that not why I said I was unbothered by namecalling, to point out the fact that it is not infuriating?
Yep, if namecalling is what prevents someone from going vegan…no it isn’t. It is just an excuse and they were going to continue eating meat with or without the namecalling.
It’s not the name calling it’s that it basically shuts down anyone actually considering it because that’s how humans work. If you say you are bad for doing this the most common reactions are to become defensive or ignore it, both of which are counterproductive to someone changing their mind.

No. They’re not. They made an example to set you up, and you walked right into it. Making their point for them.
Talking shit about someone’s diet isn’t going to make them change their diet.
The only insane part is that you view everyone that isn’t a vegan as “anti-vegan”. Or that everyone that disagrees with you is “anti-vegan”
I don’t think the cashier at my local grocery store is “anti-boardgames” just because they feel annoyed when someone tries to pay with monopoly money.
While I agree that there is a difference between non-vegan and anti-vegan, this is a very strained analogy.
Nah, op is correct. Also no one mentioned right-wing stuff…or politics at all. Why would you bring that up and imply op is right-wing?

Nope.
They said:
They said “people”, not “I”. They didn’t say “I am infuriated”.
The only information we have about the state of the person you are replying to is that they’re hungry.
You should apply to be a politician because bullshitting comes so easy to you.
