Veganism is a cult.

Cult is a meaningless word with negative connotations. Any belief can be technically a cult. Are you a Christian? - cult. Into NASCAR? - cult. Into sports? - cult. It is a meaningless term to imply your superiority over others who believe differently. Virtue signalling. Which may be a cult as well.

I am a cultist of cults that defy the cult monikers that define cults that are truly made up of cults that define cults that are made up because THAT my friends is the only cult of cults that matters. all the rest are just cults.

Thank you for saying that.

Veganism is many things. Dislike of farm factory procedures and cruelty to animals. Dislike of hormones and substances put into animals raised for food. A belief that animal fat is detrimental to health. Whatever.

My ex is a vegan and it's purely for health reasons, in his mind. He would never inflict it on others or lecture others ... unless they asked.

Sometimes when people tell you they're vegan it's another way of saying will there be anything at the party/mixer/event that I can eat within my dietary choices.

Vegan is an excellent way of eating and very healthy ... but ONLY if you do the research on what you must be getting in your diet from plants once you cut out all animal products. For example, you MUST supplement with B-12. Veganism takes more work and food prep ... you can't just replace meat with salads and vegetables. It's not easy at first but like anything else if you're dedicated you can make it work for you.
