Disagreements on policy, methods, goals, philosophy, leaders, countries, protests, consumption, rules, etc need to be debated in a civil manner. Purity tests and calling people reactionary over disagreements should be banned as a form of sectarianism. Even though these may not be conveniently labeled as part of pre-existing tendencies, this form of exclusionary discourse still divides the movement in the same way.
Sad to find out that a lot of vegan comrades would consider me not a leftist and a reactionary, but whatcha gonna do
