Thank you for the feedback. I understand your point.
I was going off a dictionary definition along these lines:
> preconceived opinion that is not based on reason or actual experience
But I totally get that prejudice has connotations here that make it inappropriate for me as a white man to use

- ghostbrainalpha 5y agoAbsurd. Have you heard of "religious prejudice"? That's prejudice and based off of a choice. Racial discrimination does not own the term prejudice.
- lotsofpulp 5y agoI cannot believe I am reading someone claim prejudice is a word that should not be used if you have a certain skin color. Did the judicial system stop dismissing cases with prejudice?
- ianmcgowan 5y agoDid the CIA stop terminating people "with extreme prejudice"?
- KSteffensen 5y agoWhy is it inappropriate for a white man to use the word prejudice? Isn't any sort of negatively biased opinion prejudice, regardless of what it's against be it gender, race, dietary choices, religion or anything else?

- jrm4 5y agoI was definitely not saying "white people shouldn't use it." What I was saying is a little bit closer to - "Prejudice" connotes "identity" type issues, and I don't think 'veganism' is like that. (Once again -- CONNOTES -- for all the dictionary lovers out there)
