What happened in the vegan community?

I hadn’t heard about any of this until seeing that ToS post.

    A lot of us are murderers in that way. Or accomplices, whatever. The thing about vegans specifically is that there’s not any moral need for it. The goodness to animals would make you vegetarian. Not having cheese or eggs is not the slightest bit morally better.

      Eh kinda. The working conditions of cows and chickens is pretty horrible. I could see not wanting to be involved in that.

      But personally, I’m going to worry about improving the working conditions of humans first.

          But aren’t you the one advocating that this is okay? Why do I need a trigger warning for something so deeply and obviously ethical?

            your deeply biased YouTube video is notoriously traumatizing, with the production house that made it providing aftercare tips. viewers report sleeplessness, nightmares, vomiting, lack of appetite and depression.

            you are acting irresponsibly

            I don’t have a problem with openheart surgery, but I don’t link videos of it without a tag

              I feel like I’m being trolled right now. It’s a documentary which is expressly about the extensive, systemic animal abuse that happens in the industry, and the first instance of that is over 5 minutes in. Did you not expect gore? Is this not like the most fundamentally obvious thing you could possibly expect from such a documentary?

              Edit: oh, comment history tells me that I am being trolled. Interesting. Have a nice day.

                I know all about your YouTube video, but unsuspecting people could be triggered, and it is your responsibility to warn others when you endanger them.

                  They’re just filming what you paid for. You should’ve warned the camera crew of the documentary before endangering them.

                calling me names doesn’t relieve you of responsibility, nor make anything I’ve said untrue
