Ahaha! Love this! A few vegans are irate that celebrity Jojo isn’t “vegan enough.” To them, she’s a “fake vegan” promoting veganism and she needs to stop! They would rather see a high profile celebrity promoting the meat-heavy South Beach diet than have someone who is impure or “not vegan for the right reasons” pushing veganism. The future of veganism is not in the hands of these religious vegans, that’s for sure. 😂😂😂 #vegan #watsonvegan

Article quote: People whose ideologies are close but not identical often seem to hate each other the most. Consider the quarrels among various brands of progressives captured in the phrase “the left eats its own.” Freud called this phenomenon “the narcissism of small differences.” Recent research has referred to it as “horizontal hostility,” which grows as a reaction to “distinctiveness threat.” The distinctness under threat is differentiation from mainstream groups, a differentiation that minority groups usually value as part of their identities. Psychologists have studied this dynamic among strict vegans and less-strict vegetarians, finding that vegans often were more hostile toward vegetarians than they were toward meat eaters. The researchers assumed this was about identity protection — when vegans, vegetarians and flexitarians (who avoid meat and dairy but aren’t absolutists) are lumped together, the vegans feel their identity gets diluted by association because their desire to be seen as "virtuous" and "superior" is dampened. Interesting article. #vegan #watsonvegan

If someone tells you they’re eating vegan 5 days a week, do you say, “That’s great! You’re saving animals, your health, and the planet?” Or do you say, “F*ck you, you’re a murderer and a rapist 2 days a week!” If you’re saying the latter, you’re not in it to save animals. Moving in the right direction is progress. #vegan #watsonvegan #saveanimals #vegansarecaring (at Fresh Potato Factory)
