Vegetarianism and veganism are not the same :/
It is a meme

True. But 'Militant Vegetarian' isn't exactly a term known by most people. Moreover, this is a meme on a meme community. No one is taking the title seriously.
I'd say forgive me for using it but frankly I don't care.

Vegetarianism is a plant(and fungus)-based diet. This may be motivated by veganism/ethics, climate/environmental concerns, religion, and/or health.
Lacto-ovo-vegetarianism is when you call yourself vegetarian but eat mostly cheese. This may be motivated by wanting to feel like a good person or imagine that you are eating a healthy, environmentally-friendly diet.
There was a trend in the 80-90 to separate the diet and vegetable-based diets into ovo-lacto-vegetarianism and vegetarianism.
There has been a debate recently with so many "veggie" trends to revive the term in that way. With cuestionable changes to the definition of veganism implied, which like vegetarianism whose current definition comes from the vegetarian society, the definition of veganism comes from the vegan society.
The concepts have been very separated since then.
I know, I was just making fun of "vegetarians"
