    It’s just not reasonable to go continent hopping yeah.

    If you can make do without meat, they you can make do without aeroplanes and sailing the Atlantic is not something everyone can do

      No sometimes you can’t make do without flying over the Atlantic, whether you avoid meat or not. Everyone has a scale of values, and sometimes the price of avoiding flights entirely is just too high. I dare say often. And, depending on the reasons, not all flights are the same.

      Also, avoiding meat may or may not be related to global warming, everyone has their reasons.

      A Buddhist immigrant that completely avoids meat, may still want to visit their family of origin once a year, whether they worry about the climate or not. To make an obvious example, but I could quote academic exchanges or many others.

      Let’s make up all the rules in the world for vegans. How dare they be more ethical and more sustainable, they’re not allowed to have fun like me because they don’t have the same vices, I want to discriminate and hate them for no reason.

      They need to achieve absolute perfection. Even if it’s literally impossible. I need a moment to rally against good healthy people.

        I dont understand why you think vegans have more of a right to have a transatlantic wedding than others… I guess in the USA there is no shame in flying
