No, that is what veganism IS. I didn’t make it up. And you sure as fuck didn’t make it up.
The people you are describing are not vegan. The term you haven’t learned yet is “plant-based”. The distinction is significant and meaningful. And since you have nothing to do with either, have not done even the most cursory research on the subject, maybe you should STFU and listen.
I have been vegan for the past decade. I have done my research, plant based products are products that can’t be labeled as vegan because they for example use the same grill to cook plant based products and meat. That makes it none vegan.
Even the wiki article from veganism states, that people that follow the vegan diet for environmental reasons are called vegans. Maybe you should stfu and read. Maybe your assumption about veganism is based off of the same things you base your assumption off of, that I don’t have anything to do with veganism.
Gentlemen, please; we’re all on the same team here. Veganism for any reason is good for the environment and the environment includes animals, in which not eating them is generally good for them.
No need for any of us to name call or get upset with each other over this stuff. We’re all trying to make the world a better place, even if our methods are slightly different, we all believe the current way of life is unsustainable for humanity and are taking what steps we can to help.

We need to unite, not divide.
You are absolutely right.
it would be, if it stopped the environmental impacts. it doesn’t.
