I get the feeling, reading through the comments, that a lot of people missed the point of the comment "Eating meat doesn't make you a bad person, and not eating meat doesn't make you a good person". The point is that if you try and make people out to be "enemies" and make an "us vs them" mentality, you're going to have a much harder time trying to actually talk to others and help them understand your point of view. If you make someone out to be a villain, an enemy, opposition to what you say is "right and just", you're creating for yourself an uphill battle.
Remember that the people eating meat, and the people not eating meat, are all still people. Calm down, try and relax a little. I assure you, it'll help. Remember that pointing out instances of others not acting in civil ways is not a good excuse for doing so yourself.
