A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I dunno, I've met some bitterly unkind vegans that might answer this question for you pretty conclusively.
Were they bullies?
Kinda. We referred to them as "militant vegans"
Maybe I just need to meet nice vegans. Lol
I've met a bunch. Usually takes a while to find out they're vegan. Aside from maybe having something in their cubicle, I've never found em to be preachy or anything. Honestly I've only experienced harsh vegan kickback online.
It's not easy to like someone who is telling you to change your behaviour especially when they clearly think you are a murderer.
