An online space for the vegans of Lemmy.

Rules and miscellaneous:

  1. 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)
  2. 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
  3. Use content warnings and NSFW tags for triggering content
  4. Circlejerking belongs to /c/vegancirclejerk
  5. All posts should abide by Lemmy's Code of Conduct

If you want to make the world a better place, there is no better choice than choosing not to have children.

I get the point and I also advocate against human reproduction -- though for the benefit of the child, not for the benefit of the world. But as an intervention it kind of suggests that we should also be monitoring for when our own suicide benefits the world. Fuck the world. That's never been my motivation. Going vegan doesn't really affect the world. It affects the victims.
