My dogs eat vegan dog food. But they also haven't made a moral choice to not use animals. To say they are vegans is odd to me, though I have done that as the distinction is lost on most people and for the sake of a swift message it does the job. At least they didn't say "vegan cleanse."

That's not Mary Martin, PhD saying that's what animal rights is, that's what the majority is saying animal rights is, and majority rules. But remember that linguistically speaking, the other person isn't necessarily wrong and you're right.
