    The vegan communities, in my experience, are pretty spiky. Even amongst vegans there’s a huge rift, like they’re competing on whose version is most ethical. It’s turned me off actually interacting with them as I find my own balance of reducing suffering into this world.

      I think it’s a general issue of any community that’s organized around a belief and/or got ousted by society for too long I guess. Of course there’ll always be people who are like this from the beginning, perhaps due to trauma, bad upbringing, bad education or whatever.
