This is absolutely true. I personally realised, that online discussions about veganism are useless. Every single time it ends in a shit show. In real life you can have very good and meaningful discussion and even if you may disagree with them in some parts, you can at least learn why they think the way it is.
It seems like this only happens on the Internet. Lots of my IRL friends are vegan, vegetarian, or reduce their meat consumption. We all get along.

It’s sort of the same thing with internet atheism. The online versions are always a cartoon villain version of the real deal.
