    iff (all leftists agreed)(either)(to be vegans)(or)(veganism has nothing to do with leftism) then (I would just go with the consensus and do the vegan thing)

    since the majority of people, and, presumably, the majority of leftists don’t agree to be vegans, we should probably stop using it to divide the left.

      You can use this talking point for any leftist topic because, guess what, the left is already divided. People use this to argue against anti-racism or anti-imperialism because “the Left has to be united”, “no war but class war”, led by the most privileged of the oppressed groups
