Plants are fed to animals, and then those animals are butchered.

    I always thought: If X depends on taking advantage of animals, X is not Vegan. But I guess there are people out there who consider themselves vegan because they avoid X if X requires to actively harm animals.

    And as I said, I‘m not Vegan so who am I to judge.

      Yeah don’t they have vegan leather? So I think as long as there is no suffering involved, vegans are cool with it.

      I always think of vegan as a spectrum, (many of the best things are a spectrum).

      With sliding scales in there for stuff like morals, ethics, culture, circumstance etc.

      Once you hit a threshold of vegan traits you’re a real™ vegan.

      My judgement on this is also suspect, so ymmv.
