this is my first comment here, just wanted to say that it's so nice to find a corner of the internet where i can be an openly vegan communist and vibe with similar ppl. I'm so tired of tiptoeing around "based" carnists that go full chud once you eat a veggie burger in front of them or ask them to not be speciesist. sorry for the mushy comment but ty yall ๐Ÿ˜ญ

[-] Venus@hexbear.net 76 points 1 year ago

Unfortunately we have those people here too. But yeah, the fact that like 30% of people here won't go full chud against vegans is an improvement yea

the meme: "you're just lazy, right?"
the comments: "how dare you call me lazy, I actually enjoy hurting others"

How do you know someone's a carnist? Don't worry, they'll tell you

I'm starting to think the problem for a lot of people is that they just flat out don't know how to cook vegetarian/vegan dishes.

I'm thinking a lot of them are imaging some kind of hypothetical "cooked to perfection" meat dish with lots of spices and sauce vs like...cold, uncooked beans straight out of the can.

I'm not vegan, but like...it isn't hard to prepare a nice tasting vegan meal, going vegan doesn't mean a person has to live a spartan culinary existence where food is for bland sustenance and nothing else.

Idea for a bit: a vegan Objectivist who lets the trolley hit the pig because he wasn't going to eat the pig anyway.

[-] seeking_perhaps@hexbear.net 52 points 1 year ago

Pretty disgusted at the carnism in this thread.

As a centrist, for a compromise I will only pull the lever half way.

[-] CarmineCatboy@hexbear.net 46 points 1 year ago

this will cause the trolley to explode, contaminating the nearby hummus fields

We don't have enough edgy carnists comments in here so idk guess I would murder the pig or whatever, not like it has any feelings, and my momentary enjoyment of its taste is worth more than its life. I am a good leftist btw.

can someone please explain why vegans are allowed to engage in sectarian gatekeeping? Anarchists and MLs are rightly prevented from fighting about who is and isn't a real leftist, that should extend to vegan users not saying we're not real leftists for eating meat or using animal products.

[-] AntiOutsideAktion@hexbear.net 40 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Because the difference between anarchists and communists is one of strategy while the difference between vegans and bloodmouths is wanting to cause suffering for selfish reasons. It's not sectarian.

And no. If you're not following your ethics to the ultimate conclusion and still have a strain of "I deserve the exploits of others suffering" in you, then you're not actually a leftist.

Carnist Catch 22, if it hits the beans then they'll be destroyed and you'll have to eat the pig to survive.
