He’s not the messiah, he’s a very naughty boy!!
I think the biggest issue, especially in parts of the US, is just cultural inertia. It’s reallynot hard or.expensive to eat an easy, healthy and tasty vegan or vegetarian diet, but a lot of people, especially men, tie their identity up with eating meat.
A lot of men need to take inspiration from Patrik Baboumian to learn to be strong and kind! Real men are vegans!
I’m lacto-ovo veggie and the number of people who can’t fathom that I don’t eat meat (in the UK where it’s really quite common) is mind boggling.
“What, not even fish?” 🙄 No, mate, if it has a face I won’t eat it, but thanks.
People also tie flavours to specific foods. I have a friend who has a north African partner and they tell me often they’d go veggie if it weren’t for their partners chicken “which is so much better than ours”. No shit, he uses a fuck ton of spice and lemons. If you threw that on some veggies it would be a pretty close flavour experience. I get missing a texture (slow cooked beef? I miss that) but the flavour thing just doesn’t add up to me.
You can go vegan now to cut emissions.
Unrelated, but I am loving the new tag feature in Voyager
didn’t you already try that?
Also, just in case anyone is reading this and thinking they not sure they’re ready- you can still:
- Go vegan for set days in the week
- Remove meant and dairy from, say, lunches
- Just eat less meat
Even if you don’t go full vegan, you’ll still cut emissions by transitioning your diet.

that would work if the meat industry responded to your choice by reducing production. it doesn’t.
“Take all this woke vegan food and green EVs with your liberal mindset back to where it belongs; China. Wait, what?”
Most intelligent chud
Pretty much. They changed the title to be less inflammatory but not the link preview.
