At a hospital again. I woke up to stinky meat next to me. They told me they don’t have vegan food. They’re very ostensibly rude about this. Had to listen to a long tirade from the room"mate" about how carnism is natural.

I’m in a lot of pain which makes me really irritable. I really didn’t need to be made to gag with the meat.

Last time I was in a hospital they would throw meat into my food as well making sure it touched everything so I wasn’t able to eat the veggies without the corpse taste.

I don’t get why people are so malicious about it. I’m trying not to cry not to give them satisfaction. I am vegan for moral reasons. This is extremely uncomfortable.

    I’ve read their responses and they’ve been perfectly reasonable, especially considering the fact that they’re being mistreated in the hospital and don’t have anything to eat.

    And, conspiracy? You don’t think hospital staff who perceive that they are being treated poorly might decide to treat OP poorly in retaliation?

      Including where op called someone a dickwad? That’s not normal behavior, and I get the impression based on a few responses here, that op probably doesn’t treat people around them that great either

      No, I don’t think in retaliation. I meant the conspiracy that it’s getting downvoted simply because it’s a vegan post. I can’t speak for others, but i think op isn’t being upfront

      Again, I’ve seen lots of red flags including the “irritable” comment. What does that mean? It doesn’t mean they acted respectfully.

      The fact op immediately thinks they’re being downvoted too simply because they’re vegan also probably doesn’t win people over. It also doesn’t help they’re attacking non vegan people too.

      I think op would get a lot of upvotes, if they stopped abusing people and acted more respectfully towards people.
