Well, sure. Liberals tend to claim they are critical thinkers. It doesn't take that much critical thought to realize veganism is consistent with liberal ideals. Anyone who cares about climate change and animal suffering should be vegan.
I'll compare it to liberals in the 90's like Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama who were against gay marriage. What the hell changed in 10-15 years? Were the arguments in favor of gay marriage different then? Nope, but most people are sheep and need politicians and the media to encourage them to change their mind.
As a card-carrying vegan and liberal, I can attest that veganism is not mainstream throughout liberal movements.
Although, yes, the majority of people who are vegan tend to be liberal. We're still relatively few and far between though.
