Then they will go through your comment history and find that you posted about eating a tuna salad sandwich at a picnic one time in 1986. Then some people will take that as an invitation to follow you around and downvote you and harass you and get mods to ban you from other entirely unrelated communities. Soon there will be an SRS equivalent here. SLS?
Aren’t you technically a vegan as you’re typing up a post, as long as you aren’t eating any meat while you do it? Almost all vegans used to eat meat at some point - your “used to eat meat” was just a bit more recently is all.
Veganism is not a diet. Is a bigot “technically a feminist” while they are a sleep? No, of course not, because no matter what their moment to moment behaviour, they do not hold the principles of the philosophy among their own personal beliefs.
I block coms with rules like that. If you want to have a private forum, then don’t keep it open to the public even for reading, and carefully vet who you let in. Otherwise you are asking for trouble with trolls and drama. Reminds me of SRS on reddit. Some thread showed up in my all feed the other day, I was about to reply then I noticed the community had rules which excluded me from posting. So I just blocked it. I don’t want to read threads I “can’t” reply to.
thought this was /c/vegancirclejerk at first glance.
I wanted to post it there, but the rules explicitly state that one must be vegan to participate.
You can just decide to be vegan before posting and change your mind after. As long as you avoid animal products in that window, you’ll be fine.
That is merely the praxis, not the philosophy.

I’m usually wearing my leather underpants so no
Well then it’s simple! Just talk to them with your pants off, and they will let you right in!
there’s a simple solution to that ;)
Lying?
Would someone actually do that? Lie on the internet???
Unpossible!

Two simple solutions to that.
“I’m vegan.” Fixed.
Nobody knows I’m a veganian
From planet Vegani?
