    I stick with Margaret Cho’s advice on vegans from her Assassin tour back in 2005:

    And especially, especially, don’t fuck with vegans. Do not look vegans in the eye. If you get into an argument with a vegan, say “I’m wrong” and run away as fast as you can. Do not fuck with vegans because they will fuck you up…BECAUSE THEY’RE HUNGRY.

        Inflammatory prejudices are only bad when others have them. They’re definitely the hateful ones, so lets spread some hate about them.

            I’m sorry to hear that. The thing is, you mainly hear from those who are the most vocal, and those tend to be the most angry and therefore unreasonable. And those probably had their fair share of verbal (and/or physical) abuse from meat eaters, as vegans are hated on by a much, much larger part of society than the other way around. (That doesn’t justify their hate, of course)

            It’s all a self reinforcing dynamic of groups riling each other up, unfortunately.
