The vegan place to discuss things.

Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of animals, humans and the environment. In dietary terms it denotes the practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from animals.

Question of the week:

What's one small habit that makes vegan living easier?

Feel free to talk about anything, whether it’s vegan-related or not. This is a chill space for connecting, sharing ideas, and supporting each other.

Looking forward to hearing what everyone’s up to!

What’s one small habit that makes vegan living easier?

Being delusional enough to believe that people might change their minds if only you're kind and patient and logical around them.

Haha I do not have that habit. I'm neither patient nor logical. I don't think people are really going to change their minds unless it benefits them in some way though which is kind of where I steer those kinds of discussions anyway. Most people are way too narcissistic to act towards the greater good.

To be honest I think we're hundreds of years away from a vegan world so non stop proselytizing on people who are not aligned isn't something I do often, I look for people who are ready. I don't and won't ever denigrate or disagree with the activists who do that though.
