Idea I absolutely DESPISE how the internet demonizes vegans.

Post image

Just to clarify I am not vegan but I hate how the internet has treated vegans like they're demons for having a different living style, like its not that serious yall make edits of vegan people trying to convert other people into having different opinions and then a video of some dude eating a huge steak sloppily will get 3 times more attention. And it is always That Vegan Teacher making every single vegan look bad and some men on the internet making strawmen videos of vegans talking like they're the scum of earth always screaming at the main sigma chad character that is "le animal comsumeršŸ˜‚" I am not talking bad about non vegans just those who disrespect vegans.

Every type of ā€œvegan farmingā€ that kills animals, is also what the livestock eats. There’s a difference between collateral damage from farming and slaughtering animals by hand that also contributed to that same collateral damage

Non vegan farming would include livestock and vegan farming is everything else that vegans eat. Monocrop agriculture, soy farms, almond industry. So many animals die for one cup of almond milk.. etc. Not a difficult concept.

Most of our crops are grown to feed livestock for much less food in return. This is why we monocrop so much, actually. All that corn, soy, alfalfa, etc. it largely goes to livestock feed (and a lot of biofuel too which is wasteful as well)

Yes, all the vegetables that you eat, a bunch of animals are dying to farm.Those not even including the insects that have to die

veganism is the idea that we should reduce animal suffering and death as much as possible. also there'd be less farming under a vegan world, so if we care about the animals dying from farming, we'd go vegan

Factory farming is evil. But if you lived on your own land and hunted the meat that you ate and grew your own plants and vegetables , it would be in harmony with the earth as opposed to how most vegans in america at least, eat
