People poke fun at vegans to shield their own discomfort — about identity, masculinity, and the “meat paradox” — revealing more about their anxieties than about plant eaters themselves.
ask most people (non vegans) to imagine a vegan and they’ll come up with the most annoying person imaginable. because that’s the character the media has been pushing.
Like “how do you know someone is a vegan, don’t worry, they’ll tell you”…
while the vegans I know irl just want to eat beans.
is there any representation of vegans in public media? all I know is Beast boy, and they do make his veganism like half is personality.
FUCK, thought it was a question and not a link to an article.
Probably the strawmanning
