    Extremism definitely pushes reasonable people away from any group.

    Humans are generalizers at our core. We will assume everyone in a group is like the worst member of a group and move on without a conscious thought on the matter.

      So the extremism of the meat industry is pushing people away from eating meat?

      I’m still waiting to see this play out.

        I know you’re arguing in bad faith, but let’s pretend you’re not:

        Seeing as you weren’t aware, the “default” for most cultures is meat-eating. So most people automatically start life with “us” being meat-eaters and “them” being non-meat-eaters.

        No the really annoying vegans make some people less sympathetic to the vegan cause

          So it would follow that really annoying meat eaters make some people less interested in eating meat.

          I’m going to really start leaning into this.
