I don't disagree that theres a lot of room and a some benefits to reducing meat consumption. But I don't think that's the same as it being sensible for everyone to be vegan.
- superb_herb 9y agoAs you clearly know, life is about balance. I'd say the ideal diet is mostly vegan, with exceptions made for very well-made cheese (in France), the occasional egg from a pastured hen, a steak once every few months from a cow who got to run around and eat grass, and wild fish once a week or so.
- Overtonwindow 9y agoVegans will always say their way is better. There's a commitment there with zero room for compromise, and I think IMO for many it's a fad.
- eighthnate 9y agoIt's not a fad. Veganism is like a cult. Vegans are starving their infants to death for their "religion". https://broadly.vice.com/en_us/article/wjqbem/judge-convicts-parents-after-baby-dies-from-vegan-diet https://broadly.vice.com/en_us/article/wjqbem/judge-convicts... Plant-only diet is terrible for humans just like a meat-only diet. The best diet for humans is a balanced diet.

- icc97 9y agoFor many for who it is just a diet, often it's just a fad. But for those who stick to it, it is very important to them and it most certainly isn't a fad. So veganism is certainly not a fad, but that doesn't stop some people treating it as such. But those people who try it are welcome to, at the very least it will bring them some perspective on a life of eating meat.
