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.
No because even if you're a communist who organizes, reads, and helps your fellow human, you are a reactionary akin to a liberal conservative if you eat that turkey thanksgiving dinner
This but unironically. Carnism is reactionary liberal ideology which is incompatible with leftism and your cognitive dissonance will become too great to bear eventually
You going to call Fidel a reactionary? Veganism is good and something to strive for, but it's not the ultimate marker of leftist purity.
