Sadly, some anti-vegetarian / anti-vegan hate (often tied to misogyny and other right-wing BS) is based on insisting that it's real.

This isnt about hate of personal choice. Giving dogs a purely vegan diet is demonstrably bad for them. The post: a joke; the issue is real

4 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 2

My point is that vegetarians feeding dogs veggies is super rare, but the haters obsess about it and use it as a strawman vs. all of them.

I mean, if it were real, she wouldn't have posted it if the dog did the opposite of what she set out to prove.
