Vegan athlete Kendrick Yahcob Farris will represent the United States at the Rio games.
The only male weightlifter at this year’s Olympic games, Kendrick Yahcob Farris, happens to be a record breaker. And vegan.
Stuff like this makes people find vegans annoying..why couldn’t you focus on the fact that he broke a record?
Every vegan I have ever met is told constantly that vegans don’t get enough protein and are weak, but when when we hold up examples of people who clearly demonstrate that isn’t the case, we’re the annoying ones. We are celebrating the fact that this man is someone we can relate to and has achieved something great. Literally just leave us alone?
Vegan mountainclimber dies: “Well this proves it, vegans are weak!” Vegan weightlifter breaks record: “His veganism is irrelevant! Why can’t you just focus on the record?”
