> Veganism is about not using animal products. It says nothing about the health of the diet. When I google "why be vegan" all the top 5 results are "because of health". So objectively, you are wrong.

        Please don't do tit-for-tat flamewars on HN. It's against the site guidelines and makes for tedious reading. If someone else is stubbornly wrong, usually the best thing to do is just move on to something more interesting. Trying to win an argument or have the last word is not a curiosity-driven activity and the latter is what we want here. If you wouldn't mind reviewing https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and taking the intended spirit of the site more to heart, we'd be grateful.
