This is vcj my brother, /s should always be implied. Although there are definitely carnist that post here unironically, so I'm probably running dangerously close to Poe's law. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Vegan BTW.

Did you become vegan because of pushy vegans?

Kinda. I already thought I probably should for a while, but going on r/vcj pushed me to finally do it, and to not half-ass it. At the time I thought of them as pushy assholes, and I didn't really understand the community, but I also kept going back. Looking back, that probably says more about me at the time than it does about them.

People who raise cognitive dissonance almost always seem pushy. Why did it bother me so much that some community was making fun of me for doing something that I agreed was wrong, y'know?
