IT'S VEGANUARY !!

:vegan-edge: :vegan-edge: :vegan-edge: :vegan-edge: :vegan-edge: :vegan-edge: :vegan-edge:

the best time of year to start giving a shit about non-human animals

"Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of animals, humans and the environment."

🐮 Cows deserve to live their full lifespan

🐷 Pigs deserve a life free from exploitation

🐔 Chickens deserve a life free from genetic manipulation

If you've got any basic questions or concerns about veganism, !vegan@hexbear.net has a megathread devoted to that sort of discussion!

    It's not even about what drives it or not, it's that humans in power have created transnational legal structures that encourage this sort of thing.

    The US was already one of the richest countries in the world even when it had a far more isolationist way of doing things. It's really just that the political project around open world markets benefits incumbent power.
