@posthlewait3 A lot of people won’t tell you but have backgrounds of hate/ridicule.
Like my mother for instance hated all the hippies during Woodstock era and thought they were pieces of shit. She said they were dumb and being vegetarian or an environmentalist was stupid and was ruining the country.
She actively will blame environmentalists for a lot of stuff.
So she has this inborn hatred for vegans because they remind her of the stupid hippies.
Even my brother will let loose a few hate comments at me on the regular. Like on of them is that vegans don’t wear deodorant. So there is more at play than just “stubborn”. Some people are reallly far programmed through their childhoods to have been really pro agriculture.
Most of my family members think the correct way to live is to have a small farm and slaughter their own cows for food.
I just think that’s dumb.
Another thing is all the marketing.
Milk for strong bones, high protein for muscles. All these kinds of things that are marketed super hard and intensely have an enormous impact on the brain.
