Hey, vegan here. Itās okay if you want to hate veganism and/or vegans themselves. Quite frankly, I donāt care, but please refrain from omitting important details in the article to make plant-based diets as a whole look bad. It makes you look like a close-minded moron who will grasp at any straws to justify your position.
Any diet handled poorly will be nutritionally detrimental, no shit, and she just happened to handle her plant-based diet by consuming essentially nothing but raw fruit. For you to fail to acknowledge this actually makes me think youāre just, in bad faith, looking for any leverage you can get to shit on veganism when you donāt have to. I can assure you that, as a vegan, I find her dietary choices insane.
Let me leave you with this: think for a moment. Be a little more critical about how you approach a matter like this. Iām not saying this for my sake; Iām saying it for yours, so you donāt embarrass yourself online by coming off as a dense motherfucker with a straightforward, black-and-white, narrow , linear thought process.
Thanks.
Wow. Are you going to be ok? Iām not sure if youāre reading into my comment with some baggage.
Youāre absolutely right about fruit based - I casually wrapped vegan and fruit based together without realizing that she was practicing an extreme diet and it wasnāt indicative of a vegan diet.
I suppose Iām not aware of how much grief you get from society or people to defend your choices.
Iāll try not to comment on vegan topics anymore and Iām not sure what I said specifically to deserve such venom but Iāll do my best to not come across as a moron I guess.
I didnāt obfuscate facts from the article. I wasnāt attempting to summarize the article. I was asking how her diet doesnāt account for issues stemming from her diet. But I see now what you mean that her being vegan and eating only fruit are two different things. I guess reading it casually I wasnāt sensitive to what must be your plight.
Hope you feel better.
Iām going to be just fine. Dude, Iām just interpreting this very face value. The article outright references eating āan all fruit dietā. The fact that you went out of your way to seemingly make this about veganism being the inherent concern just reeked of bad faith. CTFO.
Yes. I need to chill. Me. How much more face value can you get from the lede in the article? Maybe the title of the article I suppose. However as addressed by other comments the article in whole was probably in bad faith.
You donāt need to defend your life. I hope you donāt approach every exchange as an opportunity to fight. There must be a better way to communicate without being combative with each other. Surely not every interaction needs to be conflict? I wasnāt attacking you or veganism. I donāt know you and please donāt think you know me. I didnāt think my comment was antagonizing. If I was thatās entirely on me.
My wife and I were considering how to alter our diet. Our friend is a vegan and we were talking about it with him. Iāll stick to that. Iāll try to not be a dense mother fucker and I hope you are open to people surprising you with happiness and joy. Or not. Doesnāt matter to me.
Itās not that deep.
I think it is. I think this applies to your life more than youād like to probably admit. I hope that you find joy and bliss and realize that the people in your life care about you and you donāt need to defend who you are to anyone.
I donāt know you and wasnāt looking to fight with you and after you called me a dense motherfucker for being - in your eyes - willfully repugnant I still care enough about you to see someone hurting. So if a stranger on the internet can reach out to you and hopes with all his being that you find solace then maybe the world doesnāt suck. Soā¦ yeah it is that deep. At least for me.
Itās not that deep.
Dude obviously has an axe to grind about vegans and then theyāre going to come here and gaslight us about how theyāre oh so sorry, but actually itās you who is the problem. What a joke.
