An online space for the vegans of Lemmy.
Rules and miscellaneous:
- We take for granted that if you engage in this community, you understand that veganism is about the animals. You either are vegan for the animals, or you are not (this is not to say that discussions about climate/environment/health are not allowed, of course)
- No omni/carnist apologists. This is not a place where to ask to be hand-holded into veganims. Omnis coddling/backpatting is not tolerated, nor are /r/DebateAVegan-like threads
- Use content warnings and NSFW tags for triggering content
- Circlejerking belongs to /c/vegancirclejerk
- All posts should abide by Lemmy's Code of Conduct

As long as billionares are destroying the atmosphere, it wont matter
It always matters for the victims.
Weird you post this criticism to attack veganism. Food is one of the most decentralized aspects of life. You're not wrong that a member of the billionaire caste can pump out ten thousand times more CO2 than you, but it can't actually, physically, eat more animals than you.
Your impact on the lives of animals is the same as Elon Musk's. The stomach is the great equalizer.
Well vegans cant eat the rich...
Veganism is all about harm reduction
The killing is counterproductive; labour at minimum wage until they repay everything they stole sounds like a better use of resources
"As long as rapists exist, my personal sexual conduct doesn't matter."
CONDUCT FUCKING MATTERS. Whether or not you can personally solve the planet's problems, WHAT YOU DO MATTERS.
Ban looks good on you.
So it's okay if I punch you because it doesn't matter as long as billionaires are destroying the world?
You can try
Not what I asked.
But it is what I want
Oh, my bad. I thought we were adults having a rational conversation, but you were just trolling.
It's always bad faith coping.
