I don't think she twisted anything. Your original statement is highly offensive. Not sure how to explain it. Maybe if you substitute the word "vegan" with another minority you will see how offensive it is. Try "black" or "Christian" or "fat people" and see how it reads.

I've said my food is vegan then had people question why I was wearing leather shoes or use dove soap or whatever. They also shut down. They don't want to hear it. Period. To them it is an agenda.
