I ask this in good faith, and I do not mean to bring about struggle sessions with this question (keep it civil, please :). I’m writing a sort of mini-essay on a certain topic (Edit: not anymore, I lost my writing appetite), and veganism fits into that topic (I’m keeping it vague because I’ll probably post it here and I don’t want to spoil the whole thing). If people are on the fence and others want to know more about what Veganism is and why they should consume in that way, I would be grateful if others more experienced and well-read on the subject could provide resources or counter-reasons. I feel like a lot of the things I believed before going vegan turned out to be misconceptions, and it doesn’t hurt to be more educated on a subject, right?

Edit: I need to take a break from the internet again, if my brain wasn’t fried already it is now (not anything any of you started, I brought this upon myself)

I’m not vegan but sympathetic to vegans and don’t judge. I’m conscious of my animal and animal byproduct consumption but never felt that urge to have to be vegan. I was pescararian previously for a significant amount of my life, back when Boca burgers were the biggest name in the market, but since stopped to add more recipes under my belt. I do love vegetarian foods and tofu still and have those regularly in my diet.
