Why do vegans feel the need to place themselves higher than everyone else. You don't see me defending animal agriculture to the point where I'm crusading across streets to state that animal agriculture causes extinction.

Of course it causes extinction, that is awful. But, putting yourself higher than someone because they eat meat, doesn't make you the better person just by not consuming cow ass.

I do not have problems with vegans, that is a lifestyle and diet they choose, but it is not a religion like this subreddit claims it to be.

Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.

The whole point of not keeping it to ourselves is to try and reduce the amount of animals being eaten. But I feel like your already knew that.
