You do know that not everyone is looking for a caffeine fix and there are people out there who do not drink coffee or tea, right?

Would you be able to give examples of healthier behaviors that vegans and vegetarians perform that the general population does not?

If one made their choice to abstain from meat for ethical reasons and not health reasons I'm not sure their lifestyle would be drastically different from their counterparts, then again I'm not sure what particular behavior patterns you are referring to which could throw off studies.

I think this is the correct answer, outside of large cities it is not legal to build apartments or row houses in many places in the States. It would probably be significantly easier to skirt the zoning laws to buy a plot of land and put 100 tiny houses on it, than to attempt to get some sort exception granted to the zoning in order to build an apartment or row house.

I really think this is an incredibly insightful take. I can't say I hang out in many vegan specific corners of the Internet, but I know there is a very active and vocal segment of the Internet community that's anti-vegan, I've heard stories of coordinated brigading attempts against vegan communities on the Internet.

I'd imagine it would be almost impossible to run an open and welcoming community when you are getting constantly inundated with hate messages, eventually it would become incredibly difficult to discern between a user who has genuine curiosity and one who is asking bad faith questions in order to trigger some kind of debate.

At this point in time you couldn't pay me to become a mod in one of those communities, it really seems like a no win scenario.
