Yep, if namecalling is what prevents someone from going vegan...no it isn't. It is just an excuse and they were going to continue eating meat with or without the namecalling.

It's not the name calling it's that it basically shuts down anyone actually considering it because that's how humans work. If you say you are bad for doing this the most common reactions are to become defensive or ignore it, both of which are counterproductive to someone changing their mind.
