The Dutch liberal (classical; libertarian) party VVD wants to ban companies from calling their product "vegetarian [meat product]" because "if it says sausage sandwich, it should contain some sausage". They think the names are misleading.
A journalist tweets in response:
"Very confusing when VVD people are reffered to as liberals. Maybe ban that too?"
"I advocate infinite effort on behalf of very finite goals, for example correcting this guy's grammar."

Kind of a stupid and silly question, but: Do you guys think internet memes are a worthwhile method of promoting veganism? I've seen some people say that they became communists because of communist memes, so I wonder if the same could apply to veganism.

Definitely. Just see how popular Vegan Sidekick is. In this day and age where everyone has a 2 second attention span, memes are excellent
Kryptonite was fun in GH5. While I dislike that they'd associate themselves with the Donald, I'm not going to religously avoid them now like I've heard some people on other forums saying they'd do. I do wonder if their career/popularity will take a hit from this, though I could see the reverse happening too, and they haven't had a hit in a while so I'm guessing that they thought that they didn't have much to lose with doing this.

I didn't see anywhere on here talking about this, but The Vegan Atheist is back. Here's the video about returning to doing YT vids: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=OjpKDqQb1Xk
