Thank you for your response, if it’s okay with you and you have time, I would love to ask a few more questions. Again, I promise I’m not trying to pick a fight or poke holes, I’m genuinely trying to reconcile things inside my head:
Has all of human history been fascist since humans have always consumed other beings?
The horrors of factory farming are indefensible, no argument. What about the farm who only raises enough for his family? Take that one far as you want, a single cow…flock of chickens, you get the idea. I’m more interested in the spirit than the semantics.
This one kind of spins off of question one, but I’d like to delve into this one…what about the Native Americans, who harvested, utilized the entire animal, had reverence for its spirit, its sacrifice?
Thank you for your response, it has been enlightening thus far.
literally all arguments for veganism have already been hashed out. Go look them up, it’s a waste of my time to present worse versions off the top of my head.
The question becomes which source? Considering the fact I know nothing about the political ramifications of a system I don’t take part in, I’m essentially starting from scratch. I can go toss is a search engine “political ramifications of veganism” and wade through a million million lines of AI slop and opinion pieces and still be no closer to an answer than when I started.
So yes, I am going to look “them” up… just as soon as I figure out which “them” I’m looking for.
It was interesting, and highlighted several misconceptions I’ve held about veganism in general. Thank you for sending me down this rabbit hole. I’ll read yours next.
Edit: it’s an ad for a book, not a paper or article. I’ll see if I can track it down through my local library.

Understood, have a nice day.
You’re not gonna look them up lmao
You know what they say when you assume.

why don’t you try comlib or anarchistslib if you want to find writings by leftists for leftists?
That is more information than I had 5 minutes ago, thank you.
Bonus points if there are any authors or specific pieces you think would be beneficial to read?
could do worse than this https://caroljadams.com/spom-the-book for the intersection between carnism and patriarchy
I just read this one.
