In the past month alone, I have seen 2 advertisements that made me angry and upset. It's this kind of attitude that makes people automatically think vegetarians and vegans are depriving themselves.
The first one was a full-page ad in a popular fashion & culture magazine that said: "We Love Vegetarians. More Meat For Us"... paid for none other than the beef industry (ha ha).
The second was a billboard in a neighboring city. I was driving home when I saw this enormous Jack In The Box burger filled with, like, 3 kinds of meats, and it said, "Vegetariano? Lastima!", which means "Vegetarian? Pity!" (Could also mean "What a shame" or "I sorry for you").
Have you seen this kind of propaganda lately?
