    30% of Indians are vegetarians, not vegans.

      Which is utterly fucking irrelevant to the idiot-tier statement that somehow vegans/vegetarians don’t get enough protein.

      Only absolute morons who tie their entire identity to eating meat think that, usually losers that hang out in the comments sections of YouTube channels with names like “Carnivoracious” or “BeardMeat” or “Beardivore” or “MeatyBeardMan.” “I eat meat, I have beard, this is my personality, I have nine pounds of undigested meat in my colon and I haven’t shit in a week.”

        Of course vegans can get enough protein from lentils, pulses etc. But it is easier for vegetarians because they can also consume dairy products.

          “Diet For a Small Planet, however, unfortunately helped create a persistent myth that vegetarians and vegans faced severe challenges when it comes to getting enough protein. Over the next few decades, multiple studies coupled with the lack of vegans dropping dead from acute protein deficiency extinguished that hysteria.”

          It takes like .2 seconds to verify if your sincerely held religious belief is utter nonsense or not.

          Maybe that’s why so few people bother learning.
