Someone just saying "I'm vegan" gets no grief. Anyone who has ever implied that people should change their behavior gets crap, just seems to be the way life is.

I mean I'm not going to knock or ridicule or taunt anyone for doing what they honestly believe right. I might try to convince someone that what they are doing *isn't* right, but be it eating meat, voting for Trump, 'rolling coal' or whatever, I have every right to expect hostility and ridicule when trying to change anything about someone else that is not immediately, directly, and quantifiably harming me.
