Source: I'm a vegan and interact with other vegans...
this is anecdotal, and you've already said you don't agree with the vegan society, so i don't see any reason to believe your interpretation of their very explicit claim over what they actually say.
i didnt say i don't agree with them. I'm saying your are overanalyzing the definition. this whole argument is opinion, everything is going to be anecdotal...
i'm reading the words they wrote. you're saying "they didn't mean the words they wrote"
you are misusing a definition. its like using newtonian physics for large scale systems. newton wasnt wrong but his equations aren't great for talking about galaxies and black holes.
newton WAS wrong.
wow. you already made it clear you dont understand what evidence is for or how things are proven. its no surprise you dont understand science and theories. newton was not wrong. his physics are for a different scope than einstein physics.
my degree is in logic and reasoning with a focus on scientific reasoning.
i know what i know, but i'm starting to doubt you know what you claim.
what argument do you think i put forth? that you are claiming the vegan society didn't mean what they said? that we don't have proof to support your claims? there is no argument at all. i'm just spitting facts.
you said yourself you were having trouble keeping track of the conversation. i assure you, i know exactly what i said.
you're claiming they don't mean the words they chose.
nope. you are just stubborn
anyone who reads your comment cannot come to any other conclusion than you think the vegan society didn't mean all animals when that's what they wrote.
