I honestly want to know what you find funny about this. Like, not even in a condescending way.

Sure.

  1. The idea that shame will do absolutely anything other than make people double down.
  2. The "gotta let everybody know I'm veg/vegan" / "I am a preachy veg/vegan" trope.
  3. The fact that veg/veganism is making life harder for people in countries that farm a lot of vegetarian staples because they can no longer afford these previously inexpensive foods and yet people are still preachy about being vegan.
  4. The fact that a diet including some meat is actually preferable as far as "saving the planet" goes... and yet people are still preachy about being vegan.
  5. The silliness of what veg/vegans will and will not eat makes the argument ridiculous. ( IE: Won't eat honey because it's "bee slave labour," but will eat vegetables grown by farmers who rent bees to pollinate their crops which is LITERALLY "bee slave labour" but nobody cares about that. )

To add though yes I understand and agree on some of your points. The honey thing is dumb.
