It's not flattery. Well, not to normal people.

Some consider the elaborating to be rude and abusive: the truth hurts.

You're not clarifying, Twink, you're trying to evade the issue. Vegans
prate about their high standards and then have a perverse indifference
to the net results of their diet. Their standard is not causing animal
suffering and death. The *results* of their lifestyles are filled with
animal suffering and death. They have other options available to them to
minimize animal suffering and death, but they're content to make
meaningless gestures, such as their irrational obsessions about animal
parts.

It's a peculiar one of their own design, applied with tremendous amounts
of hypocrisy and sanctimony.

It's an oxymoron called "vegan ethics."
