Many vegans kill insects if they're part of an infestation or otherwise harmful. It's a dietary choice, not a religion. There's no vegan pope excommunicating people who don't comply.

if they were so concerned, they'd kill themselves out of "guilt" for all the animals their ancestors used and ate... 🤔

As far as I know, most vegans are not against killing either human or non-human animals in self-defense, or when there is no reasonable alternative.
Vegans are typically against the ethics how how meat/dairy is produced, so getting rid of pests wouldn’t go against those values. Not a vegan, just a vegetarian who loves insects but knows where to draw the line.

I’m sure you know Hitler was a vegetarian, right?

@Piper I thought I would bring the conversation to an abrupt end, by invoking Godwin's law. It's always "you're a vegetarian, you hypocrite, you kill mosquitos".
Don't know who started the Hitler thing, but he had a colossal flatulence problem, and he was generous with his advice about nutrition, so he may have advised eating veggies, giving rise to those rumors.

no like most vegetarians they go for sea creatures instead of land, they go for big and not small. also those don't really impact the world so its not as bad

I think it’s Buddhists who don’t want to hurt insects, vegans don’t eat animal or animal products, not sure that means they have to be kind to animals as well

Veganism isn't about not killing animals. It's about not eating animals.

Vegans can't swallow cumshots or eat pussy

Good point, in reality they just want to feel morally superior, and the whole ‘I like animals more than humans’ talk is just used to make them feel better about treating people rudely
