      Would you respond the same to a post saying “leftism leaving people’s bodies the moment someone mentions trans people”?

      How would you try to convince someone that their circle of caring is too small? That they don’t need to be perfect in how they handle that group as long as they acknowledge their shortcomings and work on getting better? That solidarity with victims is more important than solidarity with perpetrators that are more like you?

        That’s quite an horrific parallel to attempt to draw there. I’m actually shocked that you’d attempt to equate these two.

        Being a vegan or vegetarian does not automatically mean you are a good person, or hold a particular political affiliation. Stop trying to pretend it does.

            You posed a loaded question. You presume your own position as the only valid one

            I’m not playing bad faith games

              If you weren’t playing, you wouldn’t be responding. So apparently you think this is a bad faith interaction that you are choosing to engage in. Thanks for clarifying your position, I’ll be blocking you now.
