Earlier today a vegan made a post with a white supremacist dog whistle by satirizing a person who's people "have been eating dog for thousands of years". Another Indigenous person and I did our best to call out the white supremacist nature of the discussion, so the poster later edited the title to specifically reference European people, which may have been well intentioned but only served to gaslight us by making it look like we were over-reacting and looking to be offended.

I came here for the leftism, and stayed for the Trans Rights. I'm a 2-spirit, native leftist. I have myriad reasons why I may or may not choose or even have the choice of veganism and any moralizing or condescension that comes from white vegans is an extension of over 500 years of an imposition of an alien value system which is profoundly disconnected from this land and the plants and animals which are our blood relations.

    I'm not giving the meat industry a pass. I have no problem killing, processing, and eating animals.

    I'm also mostly shit posting against vegans because they're fucking annoying. Love being told I'm the problem for eating meat, when people that look like me are being put in concentration camps.

    Even when you express the fact that vegans are correct and that you're personally trying to lower your consumption of meat they don't really care. They literally think the act of not consuming something is radical.
