    She was a vegan promoting vegan diet online. How does that ‘have nothing to do with being a vegan’? what?!

      Her mother Vera Samsonova said she had caught a “cholera-like infection” just hours before she was due to fly home.

      Zhanna’s official cause of death has not been released yet, however.

      The SUN: “SHE DIED OF VEGANISM!”
      Lemming: “How does this story have nothing to do with her being vegan?!?!”

      I see we’re already at Reddit type levels of idiocy.

      Because not all vegans eat the same restricted diet she was on. And not all vegans are anotexic, vegans do eat enough.

        But I guess this vegan did starve herself. I don’t even think the sun suggested all vegans diets are deadly.

          If they put it like that in the title, I see it like they are strongly implying it. Of course, I might be misreading it.

          Also calling someone who eats only five different plants vegan does not sound really truthful to me either.

      Any vegan with half a brain knows that you need more than just fruit to be healthy. Assuming her death by infection is a result of her diet (which is possible, but we don’t know that), she died of being an idiot, not a vegan.
