Just recently peeked at my old Reddit account after talking with my partner about some communities they like there and how that keeps them away from Lemmy/hexbear. I looked at posts in generally left leaning subs so I expected better but I suppose I’m spoiled by you wonderful people. But they number of carnists who crawl out on any discussion of veganism and MUST tirade about how all vegans are mentally ill, nutrient deficient, don’t understand agriculture, are secretly backed by 7th day adventists (had never heard this one before), lie about their diet, etc etc was just dizzying. And so many people validating that perspective and supporting it. Even saw people claiming eating ground beef diets cured their depression, on some Jordan Peterson shit lmao. Don’t really have a point to this rant just wanna say I love this community and how welcoming it is towards veganism, it’s a breath of fresh air every day here
Ah! I just realized I wasn’t subscribed to that community, no wonder I didn’t notice anything. Thanks!
