objectively unnatural The least you could do, if you’re not a complete psychopath, is just admit that you’re going to eat meat, no matter how wrong it is. This psuedo-rationalist stuff just doesnt hold up to any scrutiny. You’re a hypocrite. It’s ok, we all are on some level.

People with any “restricted diet” (I don’t think animal bodies are valid food, so I don’t consider it a restriction) have to remind people of their diet rather frequently—people eat food a lot, and veganism is rare.

The idea that vegans just announce themselves constantly isn’t true for the vast majority of vegans. Sometimes you do need to mention it, like when picking a restaurant in a social group with people who don’t yet know you’re a vegan. I do the same as a vegetarian, and I did the same when I was a vegan. You know who was very loud though? Annoying people who interrogated me on how dared I not eat meat (and this was a whole lot more common when I was a vegan). Just stfu.

The vegan proselytizing jokes are so tired. Do you actually know any vegans? I do, many actually, and the only time they bring up their diets is when discussing plans to eat. They have never pushed me for not being vegan nor shamed me, whereas I’ve been harassed by meat eaters more than once for being vegetarian, as if it personally offends them. If your entire source for “vegans are pushy” are people on the Internet, you need to get outside more.
