No really, please do come up with an argument for why eating chicken/goats/pigs/cows is totally fine but eating cats & dogs is not. It is a dreary day outside so I would like a laugh.

It is racist in a way. There is no country in which everyone eats cats or dogs. There are also probably not many countries where not a single person has ever eaten a cat or a dog.

“People from China eat cats and dogs” is no more true than “People from the US eat cats and dogs” Sure, the amount of people in China that have eaten cat or dog meat is likely higher than the corresponding amount in the US, but that’s not what these statements mean.

If someone says “People from China eat cats and dogs”, they are very likely to have some racist intent.

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.
  • In all sections of the site, you must follow the Hexbear.net Code of Conduct.
