[Serious] Why do so many people seem to hate veganism?
Seen a lot of posts on Lemmy with vegan-adjacent sentiments but the comments are typically very critical of vegan ideas, even when they don't come from vegans themselves. Why is this topic in particular so polarising on the internet? Especially since unlike politics for example, it seems like people don't really get upset by it IRL

Lol. "Please break your strongly held moral conviction for me because I want a burger". It doesn't hurt you to eat vegetables. Your eating meat isn't based on any analysis of ethics and how harmful industries are connected. You just like the taste of it. You're conflating veganism as a simple preference like ketchup vs. mustard and are asking someone to do something they would obviously be uncomfortable with because you can't go one event without meat. Ask yourself which action should invite more criticism.
