ll Verizon 4:29 PM Avocadhoe O @itsallzara Hi. I am just sending this to ask if the ice cream van was selling vegan ice cream, which would be surprising. Wanting to help others is of course great, but we should of course be helping them without basically harming and killing non-human babies, which buying non-vegan ice cream basically does. That means that if the ice cream was the typical kind, whichl generally assume is the case it definitely would have been best to help the girl in some other way. I am really hoping it was an unexpected case of the ice cream being vegan, in which case that is awesome. 4:12 PM I bought a kid an ice cream it isn't that deep fam 4:26 PM
Anthony Dagher O 7AnthonyDagher7 I usually do not do this, but I feel like this is appropriate to post since this person is claiming to be a vegan even though she admitted to buying non-vegan ice cream for someone else, defended what she did when I spoke with her privately (hoping that would make her less likely
Avocadhoe @itsallzara Pulled up to my driveway to find a little girl crying, she didn't have money for the ice cream van like her friends did so I gave her enough money to get herself a nice big ice cream with sauce, sprinkles and a flake. She was so happy (and soon had ice cream round her mouth)
Avocadhoe V @itsallzara Follow If you truly think I'm no longer vegan because bought ONE upset child ONE ice cream then you are far too up yourself to be part of a movement I love to be included in.
