An online space for the vegans of Lemmy.
Rules and miscellaneous:
- We take for granted that if you engage in this community, you understand that veganism is about the animals. You either are vegan for the animals, or you are not (this is not to say that discussions about climate/environment/health are not allowed, of course)
- No omni/carnist apologists. This is not a place where to ask to be hand-holded into veganims. Omnis coddling/backpatting is not tolerated, nor are /r/DebateAVegan-like threads
- Use content warnings and NSFW tags for triggering content
- Circlejerking belongs to /c/vegancirclejerk
- All posts should abide by Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I don’t order my beef from Amazon though.
Beef is exported from Brazil to the rest of the world
As an Australian I could argue my beef isnt from Brazil. I don't really eat it because afaik it's the worst of all the meats, but it's definitely local produce.
Australia also has plenty of deforestation problems from the beef industry. The deforestation is by no means exclusive to Brazil
The deforestation on farms that ‘people don’t even know’ is happening
That's fair, there's plenty of deforestation in Australia for a bunch of stupid shit, even illegal logging gets tolerated.
Even if your flesh isn’t shipped from there, the feed for the animals you kill will have been.
The truth is that this poster is obnoxious and posts obvious flame bait.
They get ratioed on almost everything they post because no one buys what they are selling.
My instance doesn’t display downvotes so I don’t see it if that’s true.
