So tired of concern-trollers saying shit like “oh the uncreative recipes are why people hate vegans” “people hate vegans because they’re white single-issue activists” “people hate vegans because they’re annoying” “people hate vegans because the food is bad” like 1. literally none of those things are even true and 2. even if they were it’s not why people hate vegans.
also somewhat unrelated but i’m going to soapbox about substitutions: complaining about vegan substitutions is almost always anti-vegan unless it’s a person having specific qualms with a specific thing. but there are people who will shit on substitutions as a whole concept and pretend they’re so original and have the highest opinions of food ever created. like I’m sick and tired of non-vegans (and vegans too) complaining about tofu being used as a substitute in a lot of vegan dishes. just let people enjoy their goddamn food in peace.
Yeah that post rubbed me the wrong way too, it felt more like just wanting to complain about vegans. People in the post already pointed out there’s plenty of non creative and bland non vegan recipes out there, but we’re just complaining about the one with a vegan substitute. The primary intention of substitutes is adhering to veganism, not to get as close the real thing as possible (though we’ll try if we can).
E: lol oh wait that person was you, mb
lol dw, that post annoyed me a lot. the op is still trying to debatelord me after saying some weird anti-vegan and frankly rather racist shit that I reported.
