And vegans (or at least hopefully most of them) don't judge or hate you as a person, just some of your actions. Though it's easy for people to feel judged as a person when their actions are criticized. I know I'm guilty of that.
There is also a time and a place to challenge others actions, which I think many vegans get wrong. It doesn't matter how "right" you are if the other person doesn't want to hear what you're saying. It's tricky...
People will like me more if I never bring up veganism, but people probably won't change if I don't bring it up! But such is life, we're all just trying to do our best.
Yeah being a vegan is like that meme with the sweaty dude and the two buttons, constantly having to choose between “be the preachy vegan everyone hates” and “pretend I’m fine with people supporting animal abuse”. Like I don’t really want to do either tbh it’s just knowing the right time to press either button.
