Those fabrics are made of plastic, which is derived from oil, which forms over long periods of time from buried decaying plant and animal matter. 70% of the Earth’s oil is from the Mesozoic Era, which encompassed the Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous Periods, so formed during a time when dinosaurs lived and jokes about oil being made of dinosaurs are common. Oil is actually made of plankton rather than dinosaurs, though.
Even if it wasn’t, it’s a valid point to argue that found roadkill is vegan (but still not safe to eat, RFK Jr), because no one is exploiting anyone else. There are lots of reasons for vegans not to embrace petroleum products, but the well-being of the animals and plants that formed the petroleum isn’t one of them.
i don’t know man, that looks synthetic to me
what would dinosaurs think of this “vegan” shoe?
How does it being synthetic have anything to do with it being vegan?
And a dinosaur would think “cool shoes”.
He’s just being a pedantic asshole

plastics are usualy from oil, and oil is from dinosaura
although googling it now it seems it was disproven

when you’re trying to explain your stupid joke and get akchualied 😑
Sometimes I get the phrase “I’m autistic” sung to the beat of the electric slide stuck in my head 🤷
Almost all fossil fuels consist of plant matter laid down in the Carboniferous Period, before dinosaurs even evolved
Yeah it’s almost all plant matter I think.
My guess is that the lack of leather constitutes being vegan.
Also lack of animal based glue.
