Can I say, as a vegan, normal vegans actually hate preachy, aggressive vegans. Mainly because they completely defeat the point of the goal of veganism! If you're being patronising, rude etc to people then they're never going to want to even attempt it. I love it when some one says to me "omg I tried this new vegan thing and I loved it" I'm like great that's amazing! Cause every little thing is helpful to the goal, even if it's just as simple as ordering the vegan burger at kfc, or having vegan mayo with your chicken salad. I always think that the aggressive vegans don't actually care about animals/the planet/health. They just want to be better than someone.
Another thing that winds me up is when people slag off people who aren't vegan but try vegan things. There's always YouTubers who do the whole "eating vegan for a week" or "trying vegan products" and you always get comments from dickheads like "if you're not vegan why would you buy vegan xyz" and I'm like... ok but even just a week, or buying cruelty free shampoo is something! All they do is put people off trying, makes us look crazy and militant! It really fucks me off!
