So one thing here. Did you all see the size of the guys pushing him out. If you’re a leftist and you’re a guy, eat steak, lift weights, then your too can push all the Nazis you want around. If you’re not training to lift your purple haired big boobed former Goth girlfriend over your shoulders are you really anti fascist

Outing myself as a vegan here, but w/e.
Don’t eat meat, eat protein and work out 3 days a week or more (if you can)! And specially if you’re vegetarian or vegan, don’t hesitate to use 5g creatine monohydrate per day.

Got no problems with vegans as long as they aren’t getting self righteous and treating non-vegans as sub human. For instance, That Vegan Teacher is a massive piece of shit who actively harms vegans with her actions.

I have no idea what vegan teacher youre talking about, and in my experience non-vegs feel bad just by hearing that I do actively go out of my way to not hurt innocent sentient beings.
But yes, of course you’ll feel like you’re doing the right thing, when you actually stop doing the wrong thing. Nothing wrong with that.
Also, the only reason the militant vegans make people so angry is, that deep down they know it’s true. Change my mind.
Holyginz@lemmy.world 5 days ago
Im not interested in trying to change your mind. And not everyone has the resources, time, energy, or interest in becoming vegan. And no, people aren’t angry with militant vegans because they are right. Its because militant vegans are worse than jehovah’s witnesses when it comes to pushing their ideology on others and refusing to acknowledge their own privileges in being able to be vegan and make no effort to learn about anyone else. And that’s all I’ll say on it so if you want to argue do it with someone else.

Its more because they argue like religious people than someone genuinely trying to convince me. I genuinely do kinda agree that if you want to be as moral as possible you should be vegan. But to be entirely honest I just don’t care about animal suffering that much when there are so many issues that affect people and my morality is basically completely human centric.
And inventing what is effectively used as a slur against omnivores really does diminish the idea that they are simply “doing the right thing”. I am not saying that the term carnist is a slur for clarification just that in some vegan communities it is used in the same way that one would be used.

What is a good source of protein for vegans? I am flexitarian just to diminish my impact. But my main source is from cottage cheese / yoghurt and the alike.
theolodis@feddit.org 5 days ago
To be honest, I am vegan for over 12 years and my main source of protein at the moment is Tofu (I airfry a whole diced package, 20g protein per 200g), or eat soy chunks, soaked in hot water and pan fried (from the local indian store, 19g protein per 40g dry chunks). Also nice is gluten powder (also called seitan), which is wheat protein isolate and is excellent to be transformed into your own meat substitute (also sausages). That has 24g protein per 30g of dry mass, but for consistency I’d recommend mixing it with something like crushed beans or chickpeas, otherwise it’ll be very elastic.
Otherwise I love the taste of the Orgain plant based protein, and of course, as mentioned by other people, eating a variety of lentils, beans, nuts or chickpeas helps to get the extra you need (the first paragraph is to fill up in the evening if you didn’t have enough during the day)

Hell dry oatmeal has 10-17g/100g if ny memory serves med right.

What’s the texture/taste like? I have pretty bad sensitivity issues when it comes to eating and I’ve never tried it because tofu has always looked really unappetizing to me. I don’t want to waste it if I don’t like it. I don’t like deli meat for the same reason although I can force it down if it’s served at a lunch or something. If the same thing happened with tofu id try it. I’ve never even seen seitan as far as I know.

Not a vegan, but plant proteins are highly abundant in anything like lentils, beans, rice, nuts, the thing is they aren’t complete proteins, for the most part, so you need to make sure whatever your eating is paired with a complementary amino acid profile. Generally if you’re eating beans or legumes then pair them with a grain or rice. Seitan is a great source of protein if you pair it with the right things.

Not really related, but where did this whole workout trend come from? What is the issue with traditional sports?
theolodis@feddit.org 5 days ago
I think part of it is to reclaim masculinity (big muscle = very man), but of course there’s nothing wrong with other sports! Just stay active!
frog_brawler@lemmy.world 5 days ago
They’re for people that aren’t in their mid 30’s and older. Nothing wrong with them, but after a certain point, there’s a lot of difficulty in keeping up with the scheduling surrounding team sports.
