No thanks.
Shemaya,
Can you not take some some responsibility for the way your written words come across, and try to clarify to those who ask for it?
Your defensiveness is not promoting understanding. This happens to everyone, as we all know about catalyst here.
No one accused you by the way. I said that in lieu of you explaining, I was forced to make my own interpretations, and it seemed to me that the underlying intention behind your words was to make a connection to vegans via the eugenicist author. Otherwise, I did not understand at all why you brought that author up in the context of this thread. My interpretation of what you said here was enhanced by comments you made in another thread that lumped vegans in with STS-type controlling factions on the planet.
Vegans cannot be lumped into a category. It's a prejudice, just as saying women are weak, white people are superior, Muslims are terrorists, etc.
You started to explain your thinking, but only said it referenced another thread. I invite you to elaborate.
