At a hospital again. I woke up to stinky meat next to me. They told me they don’t have vegan food. They’re very ostensibly rude about this. Had to listen to a long tirade from the room"mate" about how carnism is natural.

I’m in a lot of pain which makes me really irritable. I really didn’t need to be made to gag with the meat.

Last time I was in a hospital they would throw meat into my food as well making sure it touched everything so I wasn’t able to eat the veggies without the corpse taste.

I don’t get why people are so malicious about it. I’m trying not to cry not to give them satisfaction. I am vegan for moral reasons. This is extremely uncomfortable.

    I wish carnists would stop brigading vegan spaces. The downvotes are fucked up.

      They probably saw this in the /all feed and, like the hospital staff, were compelled to lash out at us. Downvoting us is a cope.

        They’re brigading this post hard. I’m gonna commit the heinous act of eating a banana (which I thankfully got yesterday). 🍌

        Im really thankful for you being here. 🥺 I am literally too vulnerable for this crap.

        I’m vegetarian, but still downvoted most of OP’s comments. They’re being unfairly aggressive in almost all of their replies.
