What happened in the vegan community?

I hadn't heard about any of this until seeing that ToS post.

Cats are obligate carnivores. They need meat. A vegan cat is a dead cat.

sure. but the above post stated with supplements. so if the food is palatable and nutritional to the cat, then what does it matter?

I don't think palatable nutritional vegan cat food exists, at least none with any empirical evidence its safe for cats long-term.

but if it did, would you have any objection?

I don't think you know what this means.

Yes I do, only in online comments you can't speak while another person is talking unless it's a livestream chat

The online comment version of basically responding over and over again to eventually tire the other person out

talking to tire someone out is not Gish gallop.

So you don't understand the term.

here:

The Gish gallop (/ˈɡɪʃ ˈɡæləp/) is a rhetorical technique in which a person in a debate attempts to overwhelm an opponent by presenting an excessive number of arguments, with no regard for their accuracy or strength, with a rapidity that makes it impossible for the opponent to address them in the time available.
