im tired of vegans like i 100% agree with the need to reduce our meat consumption bc it& #39;s a) environmentally unsustainable b) an industry rife with animal and human rights abuses and c) unhealthy and d) economically unsound BUT
the condescension and inability to understand the complexity of the topic shows me they have a complete lack of critical understanding of politics and economics
Plus the insistence of complete meat eradication without considering cultural factors, food sovereignty and Indigenous ways of consuming (e.g. the Honourable Harvest or Caring for Country) just reeks of Western supremacy
Not to mention the ableism (& classism) that goes into assuming everyone has the ability to access and prepare fresh healthy food and get all their nutrients from vegan sources. Like some ppl can& #39;t absorb iron from vegetables.
