Is just a liberal larping about upholding social justice for all of our comrades while condemning others to be exploited and murdered.

Edited: since people were crying about thinking this is targeting anarchists specifically, and not all larping libs.

What the fuck. The last time indigenous communities were “acculturated” was a cultural genocide. Do you not see how saying this is not ok?

This is because you don’t understand veganism. Veganism is not about sustainability or health or the environment, it is about complete and utter animal liberation. Animal exploitation should not be part of any culture.

Last I understood animal husbandry was not a major part of indigenous cultures across the country. Rather hunter-gathering and appreciation and use of every part of the animal was a general key component. Why is it such a radical idea that suggesting cultural re education for a group that was genocided culturally within living memory in Canada is a bad thing? Please, it is possible to focus on supporting veganism without suggesting we need to alter indigenous cultures a second time when the first time was a literal genocide

Sorry, but suggesting that we culturally re educate indigenous Americans and Canadians is just not something I want to do considering there is years of generational trauma in Canada from residential schools, aka cultural re education centres. I was skeptical of the idea that vegans on this site were racist, and I think the majority aren’t, but you are literally suggesting cultural re education for a group that experienced genocide several times already over the same exact idea. I’m astounded that you think that’s ok.

Welcome to /c/vegan and congratulations on your first steps toward overcoming liberalism and ascending to true leftist moral superiority.

Rules

  • No plant-based diet bullshit or promotion of plant-based capitalism. Veganism isn’t about you, it’s about historical materialist anti-speciesism, anti-racist animalization, and animal liberation. Ethical vegans only.
  • No omni apologists or carnists. Babystepping is for libs, and we’re not here to pat you on the back. Good faith questions and debate about how to fight for animal liberation are allowed.
  • No advocating violence to any species for any reason. If you think this is negotiable GTFO. This includes but is not limited to animal testing, slaughter, and mass euthanasia. Anything that promotes speciesism or the commodification of animals will be removed.
  • Use Content Warnings and NSFW tags for triggering content. Especially if a comrade requests it.
  • Questions about diet belong in c/food. It’s also a great place to share recipes.
