If you wanted vegans to succeed and build a world without cages you would be vegan
Do you think that if vegans wanted vegans to succeed they would do more outreach to people that aren’t vegans? Or do you think that everyone should convert on their own?
Let me put it this way: if every single person that you knew that, for instance, played Warhammer 40K was verbally abusive to anyone that didn’t play Warhammer 40K, and gaming stores threw people out that were just curious, how interested would you be in playing Warhammer? How would you feel about the players? Would you have a positive or negative impression of the game, regardless of the merits of the game?
When you are verbally abusive to someone that you perceive to be your enemy, do you think that’s going to turn any other people that are watching you towards your ideology?
