Whether someone reads both of our comments is not up to us. There are likely many non-vocal lurkers on this post and on Lemmy in general that have their opinions swayed by the users that are vocal.

My motivation to voice my opinion is the same as yours in this matter.

And bud, that ain't common sense. That's a reflexive mechanism since people don't like being told they're wrong, bad, or immoral. Doesn't change the fact that they still are. What IS common sense is recognizing our capacity to do evil in this world, and lessening that. Veganism aims to do just that. Don't see you providing any alternatives

    You claim I'm shutting down the conversation, but I see you taking away my will to converse. Nothing really to say. I dated a vegan a couple of years and am on board with the mission overall. But this abrasive shit isn't helping you

    You aren't shutting down the conversation. I never said that. Thanks for putting words in my mouth, idiot.

    You want me to voice my opinion in ways that are more palatable to your sensibilities. Ain't doin' shit for you bro.

    Good! Maybe you should date more vegans. Hell, even make more vegan friends. You'll get over this hump of having your feelings hurt
