With how RFK has been speaking about autistic people and his plans for them, I don’t want to hear FUCK against self-diagnosis ever again when shit like this directly demonstrates what formal diagnosis can lead to — and there is worse to come, I guarantee. An autistic person’s choice to not be put on a Eugenics Hitlist is pretty fucking valid I’d say actually

[less-freshly-vegan]

Whenever I read "I don't take vegans seriously because X" I'm forced to roll my eyes. You don't take us seriously because you don't want to, and you don't want to because making any kind of lifestyle change in the name of your beliefs is seen as too much effort these days.

[hearthoof]

if you reblog or interact with any of my posts it means you love and support trans people.

if you interact with me and you are a t3rf, g3nder critical, or whatever the hell else you bozos call yourselves, you're getting blocked on sight.

my posts arent FOR YOU. you dont get to take a movement for animals and twist it into weird transphobic shit. you dont get to be a part of a movement that aims to give rights to sentient beings while also hating other sentient beings.

do some research. overcome your bigotry. change your ways. if you dont, then i dont want anything to do with you. i dont have the patience. get a life

Something so frustrating about being vegan in a non vegan space is that people literally just do not understand that I am against animal exploitation in every way. It does not click for them no matter how many times I repeat myself.

"But these farms treat their animals really well before they kill them!" Did you miss the part where I said unnecessary animal death is something I'm against? Did you miss the part where I said I don't care how nicely the animals are treated because at the end of the day their milk is being stolen from their baby, and they'll be slaughtered once they're no longer useful?

"But these beekeepers take good care of their bees!" Did you cover your ears when I said I'm against exploitation of animals and I do not want people to steal their resources? How many times do I need to say that I don't care how nice their keepers are?

And you can apply this to any other part of the animal ag industry. I don't care about small/local animal farms. I do not care about your idea of the perfect farmer that is super niceys to the animals he will someday kill. I do not care for that and I never will. I'm still against animal exploitation. You didn't change my mind in the slightest

Yeah, they need to be milked because you continually make them pregnant so they lactate. It’s not as if they are plagued with being 24/7 milk producers like humans did to sheep and their wool. You are fully capable of leaving these animals be, and you choose not to because you want to profit off of them.

“Cows need to be milked” yeah, by their babies. That’s why they produce milk in the first place!

[unprepossessed]

like i have been vegan for 10 years. i am not a fucking idiot. i have not put 10 years of my life into this lifestyle on a whim because killing animals makes me sad. i have done my research. i make an effort to make ethical food choices where i can not just by cutting out animal products but in other areas as well. i buy secondhand clothes almost exclusively. my house is filled with thrifted furniture. we even thrift yarn for knitting and crochet projects when we can. i have well-researched, environmentally motivated, and yes moral reasons for avoiding leather and wool and honey. vegans are, i promise you, more likely than the average non-vegan to think about the source of our food and clothing and hair and skin products and cleaning products and make decisions about our purchases accordingly.

so it gets me a little fucking annoyed when i see disinformation on my dash every other fucking DAY going "hey you stupid fucking vegans, i'm pretty sure you did zero research into this massive change to your lifestyle that affects the majority of the purchases you make every day and many of your social interactions with family friends and coworkers. let me school you [makes easily disproven claims, cites no sources, stupidly assumes vegans make up the majority of the consumer base of literally any product despite being all of 1-2% of the population]"

I AM SO FUCKING TIRED

Like 90% of the time* "some people can't go vegan🙄❌️👎" as anti-vegan rhetoric comes from people who IT DOESNT EVEN APPLY TO.

There ARE specific situations where people need to eat animals to survive-- severe poverty, living off the grid, specific health conditions, food deserts-- plant based diets are able to support mostly anybody, but because of the carnist world we live in it isn't /available/ to everybody.

And vegans UNDERSTAND THIS. When we are advocating for veganism and the end of speciesism, we obviously aren't fucking talking about a starving child in Africa (yes someone has said this to me) and I'm tired of even dignifying this bullshit with a response.

We are addressing everyday people in our own communities-- people like us who absolutely can go vegan. The same people who weaponize serious situations like poverty to misrepresent a LIBERATION MOVEMENT.

To try to bash and misrepresent one of the strongest ways we can use our voice as consumers to resist oppression and environmental destruction, isn't just fucked but is also stupid. It's not helping anyone, especially not the vulnerable populations you use as misrepresented sheilds to your own ignorance.

In our increasingly bigoted and environmentally destructive planet (especially here in the US) we don't have time for this bullshit.

(* this is in my and others experience as activists who've had conversations with many others about veganism. It might not be your experience, especially if you aren't an activist)
