I escaped the Reddit regime a little while ago. I consider myself a marxist-leninist-MZT. Vegetarian and vegan for a few years. I've a lot of thoughts on how marxism and veganism are connected. Never wrote them down. I'd like to start smth like a club for marxist vegans to develop our own proletarian theory. Most vegan theory I found is either openly bourgeois (Francione is a literal TERF) or revisionist (anti-China, anarchist, libertarian). How about fixing this?
My veganism came from my socialism. I went vegan in 2020, when meat packing plant managers were gambling on the lives of their employees with a literal betting pool about who would catch COVID next. I was always sympathetic to the animal rights angle of veganism, but it was connecting it to the workers' struggle that made it the only personal choice I could tolerate.
