Every once in a while I get that ominous feeling that killing and specially making animals suffer just for me to eat meat, fish and lactose is extremely wrong, but then I kinda forget.

I kinda see myself hunting wild game though so it's weird.

    I don’t think anyone believes that. All we’re saying is that leftism doesn’t revolve around dietary virtues, we’re letting the masses have their milk and honey

    the masses... the masses must overthrow Burger King for themselves, and they’re going to do that through mass struggle, of which veganism-carnivorism is a secondary contradiction (yes we all align on the vegan side)

    there’s this idea, that you can lead the vanguard through personal choice and extreme purity, that leads people to do this performative petit-bourgeois thing, to take extremely liberal positions (that are good) and declare themselves willing to use the worst of authoritarian revisionism to impose them on the rest of us, as if that’s how we determine party pecking order, as if that’s anything more than an unpopular and performative red fascism

        extreme vegan agitation is helping tremendously, the original argument was against the exclusionary statement that no true leftists can eat animal products, which is of course absurd and alienating for everyone outside of the Whole Foods class of American leftists
