    You read the parent comment as completely serious and used it to rail against an assumed or imagined vegan boogeyman. Sounds tongue in cheek to me. I’m still waiting to see this “obnoxious vegan” everyone’s talking about. I know they exist, but all I see are angry meat eaters complaining about them

      Go ahead and take a look at the vegan communities around the fediverse, don’t even need to go to the Reddit cesspool, they come along with everyone else… and let me know if they look like they’re not serious about that type of thing.

      Holy hell, another one? I just found one of these creatures yesterday. My comments still reek of the responses to them.
