    Veganism: Great lifestyle. Wretched, toxic community (mostly).

    EDIT: I want to add I’m very much pro-vegan. They’re literally right. I probably will go vegan as soon as I work out a solution to my eating disorder (ARFID). You just won’t see me in any community. They just seem psychologically unhealthy.

      As a vegan, can confirm.

      When I was on reddit, I could not be part of the r/vegan community, it was fucked.

      The community here on Lemmy was better (though I wasn’t subbed because these communities are mostly newcomers to the vegan scene coming fresh off the high of being morally superior to the carnists).

      The good vegan communities were the ones focused on recipes.

      If you want to discus animal liberation, good, go do that, but I don’t want to my feed to be a combination of dinner and animal abuse. I’m trying to move past that…

        What is your best breakfast recipe that isn’t oatmeal?

        The texture horrifies me, but it seems to be the go-to these days.

        I like peanut butter toasts, but my son is allergic to peanuts and coming to that age where he touches everything. So I need to find alternatives.

      I just want to ask for more details on the “they’re litterally right” part. Mostly cause I didn’t think the had an official organized statement to be right about. But I don’t really follow them, so maybe I’m missing something.

        Veganism is, in fact:

        A. Far more sustainable.

        B. Perfectly healthy.

        C. Completely possible to adapt to.

        Veganism, without a doubt, would be better for the planet, and probably better for humans. I simply don’t like the communities.
