Why I am not a vegan

[Spaced]

If anybody gets angry when somebody is eating meat, it is because a judgment is being made. 

This is incorrect. No one here, as far back as I have been here (since 2010 I think), has ever gotten angry that someone is eating meat. This is a misperception. Being misunderstood sometimes causes frustrations. And, being accused of being superior, controlling, zealots, extremists and the like may cause some anger on the side of those proposing a plant-based diet. 

On the other hand, anger seems to crop up at times when the implications of eating meat are challenged. Defensiveness kicks in. 

This is not to imply that there aren't very valid ideas to discuss all the way around the subject. That is why we are here. That is why we are discussing it. 

I live my life around people who eat meat. There is nowhere I can go where it isn't happening. Do I get angry at them? No.

Monica literally calls meat eaters rapists and murderers.
