There’s a lot of those types of people in this thread too it seems … like there’s no reason you should be getting downvoted …
Anyways, it reminds me of this chef that I watch. He has some awesome plant based recipes and stuff I follow. So good. Anyways, he did one video about how much he hates vegans despite being one. He was being hyperbolic but there was always the feeling of “never being vegan enough”. Some vocal vegans kept shaming him about his leather couch and just spewing vile stuff in the comments even to other vegans.
He later points out in the video that it was a vegan couch and he went through great lengths to acquire it and said that he went vegan because of his love of animals and that it was a journey. There’s always something to be doing and he didn’t just start off vegan and he started small. However, there’s just so many people that just love being vile instead of supporting each other on their journey.
It seems these more vocal vegans would rather feel good by shaming others instead of trying to push the cause forward.
I think it’s also that some people who take up a cause (or a way of living, or whatever you want to call it) feel the need to one up others doing the same. It’s a form a bringing yourself up by pulling others down, which isn’t a good way to exist.
