It's because there's been a push in online to demonize vegans and paint them as annoying and woke. It's basically the same as the anti-feminist stuff over 10 years ago.
There needn't be a push. People isolated from significant global warming discourse or animal rights issues, which is a load of people wherever one may be, don't really get why vegans are "the way they are."
Not even rhetoric, the mere existence of vegans with explanations of their reasons can create thoughts of "are you saying I don't care about the environment/animal welfare" in their skulls. I'm not even vegan, I just happen to know a few, but talking about those people's veganism, I've seen too many people have really weird notions behind their eyes before reaching the conclusion "whatever"
