Why are you even debating veganism when you don't know what veganism is. Veganism isn't a diet, and it includes avoiding all animal products whenever possible.

And just calling something a fallacy doesn't make it so either.

But you are posting legit historical and ethical fallacies. Your stance is the natural is the good and that the world is impermeable anyway so why bother, honestly I'm not sure why you'd have to make both of these arguments as either would suffice if they were valid to begin with. And they are more than fallacies, they are bad faith arguments as nobody seriously believes these things.

Am not even going to bother continuing this argument since you make assumptions I don't know what am talking about while at the same time keep talking about fallacies. Enjoy living inside your own bubble.

Welcome

Welcome to c/vegan@lemmy.world. Broadly, this community is a place to discuss veganism. Discussion on intersectional topics related to the animal rights movement are also encouraged.

'Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals ...'
