Isn't posting this sort of leaning into the whole "We couldn't possibly eat dogs" hysteria? It hardly seems relevant for this community?
The welfare of all animals concerns vegans. It is very much relevant for this comm.
There are still places in the world that need to be pressured to stop eating dogs.
Honestly? It feels like it's leaning into racist stereotypes. Everyone, everywhere needs to stop eating every kind of meat. It's tangentially related, at best.
What does that have anything to do with anything when there are documented places in the world where they eat dogs. It’s not racist to call on people to do better.
White people eat cows and dogs in rural Switzerland, it’s not just an Asian thing. Humans suck in general.
What does it being dogs have to do with anything? It's not like cows are less worthy of love...
Dogs and Cows both deserve the same moral consideration. Where did I say “I care more about dogs in particular?”
You didn't, but a canadian posting about dog meat kind of says all it needs too. Like I said, this is tangentially related at best. It feels similar to PETA's shock efforts, which I don't think helps the cause at all.
I regularly post about the other animals. So it's not just dogs I'm focusing on...
Still just feels off. I don't know what to tell you. But you really seem to need the last word so I'll sign off here.
Your argument falls apart when I have posted about the welfare of pigs and cows.
