    People who use the term “vegan” for somebody they consider extremist, ascetic, or annoying are really telling on themselves.

    Side note: one of the most genius rebrands of all time was the way fake leather (which is often made from polyurethane, a type of plastic) suddenly became aspirational “vegan leather”.

    Most vegan leathers are made from compostable materials, because (surprise, surprise!) many vegans are also environmentalists.
