Sounds like cognitive dissonance to me. I get, I also used to do the ”actually vegan diets aren't as good as you vegoons think” stuff before I figured out that the best way to get rid of cognitive dissonance was to just be vegan.
I never would've gone to spaces specifically for vegans to proclaim how awesome meat was, though. Do these people think there's a Medal of Edgy Contrarianism in it for them or something?
This resonated with me. Fuck it, I might give this vegan thing a try.
Yeah go for it. Try not to be too hardline if it stresses you out. My therapist told me a neat little thing a while ago when I was going through a similar lifestyle choice and felt like shit because I relapsed or whatever. They told me that instead of making the choice once and for all, you can always choose day-by-day. "Am I vegan today?" instead of "I am vegan."
oh right so that's what it means
