MODERATORS
I could be wrong, but the French people I've met have been the most resistant to going vegan than any race I've even met. It's like all the pigeon and frog and goose they're eating causes them to be unable to eat tofu.
Can confirm, vegans are an ultra minority here.
One explanation that I find interesting is that all the people who have the right mindset to go vegan in the US do find animal products that are produced by actual farmers in France. In the US that's impossible from what I know. So basically if you hate cruelty you can buy chicken at the local farmer so you know they had an ok life before slaughter.
I know that veganism has a definition of animal rights that go beyond "ethical farming" but veganism is also least present in the countries where people are actually confronted with animal death for consumption at an early age. The state of the USian food industry makes it so much more obvious to just cut animal products because they're all produced so horribly
Americans worship the constitution, europeans worship their local cuisine. it's dumb but everytime i talk about veganism to someone here they act like i'm talking about bombing their hometown
Yeah that's pretty insane. And, tbh, I have my personal philosophical disagreements with anti-speciest morality, but politically, big support to vegans against reactionary carnists and for trying to save humanity from climate disaster
