Why aren't you vegan yet, Leftypol?

This is literally the worst approach to take, and this is coming from someone who is himself a vegan. Try harder next time
Dylan Stewart
Eh. I disagree. Shame is a really powerful motivator. Pretty much all my changes in opinion, personally, come from losing to another point of view and adopting it to remain logically consistent.

Big think.
Seriously though, the "angry vegan" and "nice vegan" approaches are already tried extensively. Is there a reason to not just state it like it is? Not being vegan is either a sign of ignorance on the topic or being willfully so. It also results in that person likely dying for that choice from heart disease, cancer, etc. Why NOT shame them for that?

1) There are plenty of people who know how bad factory farming is and still eat meat
2) Some people don't give a shit about living forever
3) If you're a Leftist you should be concerned primarily with abolishing capitalism with stuff like veganism and environmentalism being a side thing you do in the interim. Decoupling discussion of veganism from anti-capitalism like you're doing is harmful to Left movements in general

1. Those people are being willfully inconsistent, veganism follows from human rights.
2. Then they should just shoot up a shit ton of coke and die, no one wants that kind of person around
3. Veganism and environmentalism are staunchly anti-capitalist stances if taken logically to their ends. Any movement that wants a future for the human race should unilaterally adopt those stances.

Yeah you're definitely gonna convert a lot of people to veganism with rhetoric like that

I like haggis.

Watch me. I don't really see too much ground being gained with:
