I usually just assume people around me are left leaning and progressive.
I went to London to visit the satellite office and one of the top guys there was having a rant against vegans. I chimed in a bit and said, “well, you can say what you want but vegans are at least doing good for the environment”.
The guy was like, “I don’t believe that”
I thought he was joking, so I said, “haha what, you don’t believe in climate change?”
I should have never said that. Ten minutes of him furiously ranting about nonsense.
I got great quotes such as: “you know what climate change is? it’s when seasons change” and also “we should be eating more animals because it increases the carbon in the world and is good for us”.
Fucking hell. When I got back to the Canadian office and told my coworkers about him, the others were telling me how much of a prick he was – and they didn’t know anything about the climate change denial shit he was into either.
I believe climate change is real, but I don’t believe being vegan is an effective method to combat it, so I don’t think vegans are doing good for the environment

Wait, you’re saying someone who is confidently incorrect happens to be an asshole? Shocking!

Is this sarcasm?
It’s not a question of belief. It’s a question of understanding facts. Just like “believing” in climate change or vaccines or science in general.
