As cyclist myself, of course I’m in danger of hurting myself. Two weeks ago I had a bike accident where I hurt my dominant hand, and I’ve been unable to even hold a glass of water since, because someone parked their bicycle in the middle of the cycle lane in a situation with bad visibility.
I know the issue exists, and I can empathize with your situation. But I’ve also lived in cities with better bike infrastructure and more bike parking spaces, and in those places there were no issues with bikes parked in random places.

This may be true, but it can't be a case of letting shit roll downhill i.e. I'll think about the blind when I park my bike only after sufficient bicycle parking is designated in every part of every city in the world.
The irony is that vegans seem to care about the wellbeing of animals, but seem to forget to care about their fellow humans. Thats all. I can see how you feel this is a cheap shot. However, you are not the one who has been hurt by a fellow humans careless behaviour, so I feel like I have a little bit of an angle to this. People evangelizing run the risk of their other actions also being put on the scale...
