Veganism is not inherently leftist because the equality of leftism only applies to humans.

There is noting wrong with compassion for animals, and I would expect every leftist to harbor some form of it for them, simply because leftism arises from compassion.

But leftism cannot apply to animals. The liberation of animals cannot arise from leftism, because animals are not sapient.

I should not have opened that link and checked out one of the threads meow-tableflip

These statements don't even really follow from each other. It's just stringing together words to justify a preexisting conclusion.

What part of "Nature is man’s inorganic body – nature, that is, insofar as it is not itself human body. Man lives on nature – means that nature is his body, with which he must remain in continuous interchange if he is not to die. That man’s physical and spiritual life is linked to nature means simply that nature is linked to itself, for man is a part of nature." Do these people not understand?

I'm not even a practicing vegan, but I understand how animal liberation exists as a link in the chain of all human activity that impacts nature.

But they are big fancy words, which according to reddit, means they must make the statement true.
