I get more annoyed by omnivores who always assume, no matter how polite a vegan is, that the vegan is judging them and being preachy when all they're doing is presenting facts.
They automatically go into defense mode because it makes them question their lifestyle.
"Belief in myths allows the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought." - John F. Kennedy
And when someone dispels those myths, of course they get angry because it makes them uncomfortable.
They shove information down people's throats without any concent.
Sometimes information needs to be shoved down people's throats. Honestly people need to know the information and it's depressing how ungrateful people are when someone takes the time and effort to present the information to them.
Since when did everyone hate information? Since it was UNCOMFORTABLE. Simply psychology that drives all omnivores' arguments. Ugh.
You would think eating meat was a religion.
Uh. No. Information never needs to be shoved down peoples' throats. And it shouldn't be.
If you want to gain information on your own time, fine, but hurling it at someone who doesn't want
it or hasn't asked for it is rude and stupid. It's not going to make them any happier with said information
than they were when they didn't want it, because they still don't want it. You're just giving it to them
in an obnoxious manner.
Information only gets uncomfortable
when it's being shoved down peoples' throats.
Well it very well could be, based on the way some people worship their diets.
You haven't seen any of my posts. Okay here's an example. I post something about how veganism is good for the planet, the animals, and humans alike, right? All positives and I make sure to put lots of hearts and smilies in my post to get it across to people that I'm not judging them. Totally trying my hardest not to sound preachy about it since I already know this topic makes people hate me. Then a bunch of omnivores start insulting me and talking about all the meat they're eating just because they read my post.
Do you think I was forcing those people to read my post? Do you think I was shoving the information down their throats simply by creating a post about something I care deeply about?
Excuse me if I seem rude but what can you expect when I have to deal with people insulting me every day just for CARING ABOUT SOMETHING. God forgive me, I give a s**t.
Dear, I was not referring to you specifically in any of that. I was referring to what you said. I'm sure that you're polite about it.
HOWEVER, when I read "sometimes information needs to be shoved down peoples' throats" I responded to that.
I haven't seen
all of your posts, but I did read through the first three-four pages. I wasn't replying
to all of them, though, or I would have quoted them all to respond to.
Moving on.
I never said I thought that you were forcing people to read your post -- which you're not.
And I'm certainly not saying that it's alright for anybody to be insulting you for supporting a cause, which
is a very valid one. All I'm telling you is that I think you're wrong in what you said about information being "shared".
I'm in complete support of animal rights activists, vegans, vegetarians, and all the like.
What I'm
not in support of is they way that many of them go about with their blame games to
people who don't necessarily do what they're doing, or don't necessarily care about the cause.
We're all entitled to our own opinions on those sorts of things, and just like you give a s**t about
the big-eyed cow being put to use for meat, not everybody else does.
When people start attempting to force others to think what they think, that's when it becomes a
problem, and that's when it becomes tiring. That's all I'm saying.
