It might still not be popular to be vegan yet, but the movement is growing rapidly. It could be a symptom of a larger trend - that the injustices against non-human animals is too terrible to keep Ignoring.

Sometimes it just needs to be recognized that a problem isn't going to go away until we start doing the hard work of solving it together.

That also wasn't my point at all. I'm making no statement here about veganism. I'm saying 196 isn't a vegan activism community and these bummer posts are obnoxious.
