Is it any different from the existing vegan community?
Not much other than the fact the admin is a vegan who guarantees that there is no meat eater bias against the community on the instance. Lemmy is great for redundancy just in case ;)
And what would a non-vegan want to do in there?
What’s wrong with minority views and practices creating their own spaces?
On which, is there any non-vegan/anti-vegan thought or idea that a vegan is likely to have not heard already? How many haven’t they heard relative to the amount of decent “pro-vegan” ideas they also haven’t heard of?
Maybe a specialised space, echo chamber even, makes sense in order to balance against the gravity of the mainstream?
Right. Well, I think the instance name “vegantheory.org” was doing that already, and I’m betting you drew your conclusion from the public description of the place too (and aren’t in the modlog or anything for challenging their ideas).
This is not the place to take a run at vegans. It’s not the place to take a run at anyone announcing their community.
