    No I understood it, what I'm not cool with is equating the two struggles.

    They aren't organizing by harassing leftists in a non sectarian leftist space either, yet they were equating that as well.

      bullying people into stopping eating meat is the same as fighting a war for the abolition of slavery

      you don't seem to have understood it here. You would have said "bullying people into stopping eating meat is the same as bullying people into freeing their slaves" or similar. it's fine and normal to disagree, carnists resist any comparison of animal suffering to human suffering.

          I haven't even explicitly stated my own beliefs other than calling the user's comparison gauche. Have a nice night, enjoy the struggle session

              obviously I'm vegan (you could check my post history for that, and for some video recommendations) but I don't want to formulate a careful opinion on this fraught slavery comparison. I don't think the quoted statements are controversial; carnists like you just make substantive arguments about how humans and animals are different when faced with a comparison. If you believe that, you should be replying with "yeah and?".
