    It’s actually a documented phenomena that carnists feel more negative judgement from vegans than vegans actually judge carnists.

    You have to remember that almost all of us were raised carnist, and many spent decades following the ideology before changing our minds. I went vegan at like 25, for all I know you’re 21 and will go vegan at 23 thus being a “better” person than me :p

    I really would encourage reading, consider that almost all vegans were convinced in the face of inertia and overwhelming social pressure not to change. Consider also that at literally any point in the past we can see behaviours only a minority were calling out which we now find staggeringly cruel.

    You don’t have to agree, but you only stand to gain by learning.
