• #Veganism : You have two cows but you "have" them like you have a friend — not as property. Their breastmilk is for their children — not for adults with a fetish for nonconsentual interspieces suckling.

I didn't always realize this but "A plant based food system is the biggest way to combat climate change and deforestation" is malthusianism transposed onto human supremacy.

What is the difference between "livestock eat the majority of crops and drink a lot of water" and "There are too many humans the most effective solution to climate change is to have less mouths to feed and less energy demand"

For a while I excused this because I saw depopulation as an unavoidable consequence of market shifts, after all I'm not advocating they be killed its the farmers who would see them as an un-recouped investment and would have them killed

But this is just endorsement with extra steps, there is no way to say that water and land usage are a benefit of a plant based diet without it being human supremacist.

Yes I know I'm inviting the overpopulation antivegan argument but I'm at the point where I'm like "our species has made this ethical bed now we need to lie in it and bear the cost of caring for the population of moral patients we've created"

I recognize that with the way the world is atm the farmers will kill the livestock they don't sell. But I act to prefigure the world I want to create not to compromise with the one that already exists.

I appreciate that not everyone can do physically demanding (or otherwise risky) activism and I didn't mean to imply that you were a liberal but I fear that the human-centric approach has a tendancy to attract liberals because it is quite compatible with a reformist attitude - if all you have to do is make different consumer choices then you don't need to endorse more extreme antispeciesist action. But when we bake the perspective of the victim into the message from the start there is no way to twist it or coopt it because the focus is always on the immediate harm and how those systems can be dismantled rather than how those systems profit or disadvantage humans.

1) a.
I have also helped several people start and settle into veganism and I never shy away from pointing directly at the harm and calling out hypocrisy, self-serving rationalizations, logical fallacies etc. Am I being shitty by being direct? By calling people non-human animal abusers and murderers when those same conversations have led to them becoming committed vegans themselves?

1) b.
I believe that you have had more "success" with convincing people to eat a plant based diet for their own sake, but then why would they stop buying honey or "animal-tested" products or supporting non-human racing or zoos/aquariums or just leather and fur products like just off the top of my head a badger hair shaving brush what is the benefit to the individual to avoid these things

1) c.
You can't combat a poisoned well by toning down your advocacy that's exactly what the flesh propagandists want they want you to quiet down and stop taking extreme actions that might hurt their profits. "Injustice is never abolished by appealing to the sensibilities of the oppressor" At this moment we need more extremists not more liberal vegans and plant based dieters, the movement will continue to grow with or without you based on outreach strategy you have briefly outlined, but the radical flank of veganism is extremely small and can use all the help it can get.

1) d.
Fundamentally veganism is a rights issue the focus should never ever be on how veganism can benefit humans, its ok to talk about it but to center vegan activism entirely around humans is literally de-centering the victim and plays right into speciesist narratives about how humans are the first priority and other animals exist for our benefit, except in this veganified version those animals exist to support the biosphere we live in rather than as a source of materials

2)
see 1) d. , by not presenting the abuse of non-human animals in the foreground it gives implicit license to the abuse by implying that veganism is something that is for humans or even for the benefit of the individual framing veganism as an amoral position or a lifestyle choice. In much the same way that you don't get someone to stop physical abuse to humans by trying to convince them that it would be good for their mental health to be less violent. The problem in both human and non-human cases is either outright supremacism or disinterestedly profiting from others suffering while actively ignoring the harm so they can sleep at night

@mattwebbdev "I'm not going to be shitty to people if they're not vegan" = More concerned with the approval of the oppressors than their victims. What exactly would you consider being shitty: telling someone they should stop killing innocent sentient beings?

"I'm super feminist I don't abuse women in my personal life but if you want to do physical abuse I'm not going to moralize to you about that"

If you're fed up with the excuses and rationalizations and misinformation surrounding human's justifications for using LLMs for convenience pleasure or profit then you know a little bit what its like to be vegan and to see everyone you know justify murder for their own taste pleasure convenience and profit.

And maybe you can understand why many of us are fed up with or outright hate most of you.

Pflanzen haben keine Gefühle, genauso wie Bakterien keine Gefühle haben. Was ist daran so schwer zu verstehen? 🤔 Eine chemische Reaktion ist noch lange kein Gefühlsausdruck. 😅 Aber egal, Hauptsache man tut so, als ob Tiere und Pflanze beide gleich seien und deshalb Veganer*innen genauso schlechte Menschen sind wie Fleischfresser*innen.

@Brian @Arseni More egregious is the "not vegan intersectionality" section. A refusal to see human-supremacy as being inherently tied to white-supremacy and patriarchy is just shooting yourself in the foot (other vegan intersectional issues exist but lets start the discussion with these two)

I wrote briefly about the intersection of patriarchy and human-supremacy here but if either of you respond wanting to discuss deeper I'd be happy to https://veganism.social/@ambiguous_yelp/115774457251114498

I think its important to discuss because the stubborn insistence that speciesism can be solved without addressing other injustices is counterproductive to the project of non-human liberation

Carnism is very strong and meat is linked to masculinity by society in an absolute absurd way…

To the animals with a knife to their throat right now no action that I see vegans taking will be radical or extreme enough to save their lives. Every day vegans fail them, and we have limits yes but we should never prioritise our human-privilged comfort over their liberation (such as avoiding awkward conversations about why we wont sit at a table)

I think of all the things I would justify to escape the kill chamber myself and then I feel ready to take on the world with pride.
