The vegan place to discuss things.

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. In dietary terms it denotes the practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from animals.

  1. Keep discussions civil.

  2. Arguments against veganism will be removed.

  3. No bigotry is allowed - including speciesism, racism, sexism, classism, ableism, castism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia.

  4. Sealioning will not be entertained.

  5. No promoting of plant based capitalism

Everyone who tells you you aren't a real man or woman or whatever because of blabla is just manipulating you into doing something that person wants.

Besides that, eat you veggies.

Equally though being a real man/woman/person etc is equally as bad and weird if you think about it.

As if any single activity makes you a real anything and not just that you are anyway.

Also it feels like manipulation from the opposite direction to us.

Real ~~men~~ vegans

What a weird way to be judgemental and ignorant. Hopefully this doesn't reflect negatively on any social groups that have had a recent moment under elevated public scrutiny for being ignorant.
