Any kind of work which doesn't produce immediate products such as political science, philosophy, history, and even mathematics science and medicine (including psychiatry) will be overwhelmingly paid for by the people with the most money and those will be the hegemonic institutions - therefore these oft self described scientific and unbiased fields will actually have a heavy bias towards protecting the hegemonic source of their funding. Money ruins everything it touches.

One such example of this is institutional carnism expressed through science and medicine as talked about by melanie joy

But my broader takeaway from this thought (which is probably not original and something that gramsci talked about) is that no space within the system is free from hegemonic cultural capture - integration with and especially power within the system implies some kind of moral compromise that's a reason why anarchists propose dual power structures instead.

P.S. Philosophy of maths can have political connotations in the metaphysical assumptions it does or doesn't make

@ILikeMyCoffeBlackLikeMySoul this a great video narrated by Melanie Joy... perhaps you can use it in the future too. It is very inspiring and informative, illustrated in a clear and great way.
There are some harsh footages, but people can skip those because there is a warning...

I feel like an outcast when I have to bring my own #vegan food to a gathering

----

Being #vegan is, in many ways, a tremendously empowering experience. For many of us, becoming #vegan shifted our whole way of thinking about and relating to the world, making us feel more connected with our authentic thoughts and feelings and more engaged with life.

And yet, being #vegan comes with challenges. Because of #carnism, most people have a very limited understanding of what #veganism actually is and of how #vegans experience the world. And because many social experiences revolve around food, we can end up feeling disconnected from our loved ones as a result of choosing not to partake in certain shared experiences.

So what practical steps can you take to move toward greater connection in your #relationships?⌟
