Hey, that’s me! There’s actually a “debate a vegan” muni on lemmy, if you didn’t know. I almost subbed. I’m a three-time former vegan. Sounds more impressive when you say it like that, doesn’t it?
No but I get you. Arguing is fun as long as the stakes aren’t too high (pun intended).
The thing is that on leftist forums, the stakes for a veganism debate are pretty high cause it easily causes a 50-50ish flameout.
Mods would appreciate if people like OP didn’t intentionally troll to stir that sort of thing up (if the discussion takes place organically and respectfully, then whatever).
Mods would also appreciate if people didn’t feed obvious trolls who are just starting things up, like you pointed out, there are specific places to post about that sort of topic.
i don’t really care for debate communities. and i avoid dedicated vegan or liberal communities. but anywhere they push a specious narrative i’m happy to play whackamole.
