An online space for the vegans of Lemmy.

Rules and miscellaneous:

  1. We take for granted that if you engage in this community, you understand that veganism is about the animals. You either are vegan for the animals, or you are not (this is not to say that discussions about climate/environment/health are not allowed, of course)
  2. No omni/carnist apologists. This is not a place where to ask to be hand-holded into veganims. Omnis coddling/backpatting is not tolerated, nor are /r/DebateAVegan-like threads
  3. Use content warnings and NSFW tags for triggering content
  4. Circlejerking belongs to /c/vegancirclejerk
  5. All posts should abide by Lemmy's Code of Conduct

For once, capitalism is not to blame here. I think, vegan meat alternatives had double digit growth for a long time, at least in Germany. Any sane capitalist would invest at least a little in that sector, and in fact, many of the incumbent animal-exploiting corporations do exactly that. Danone, as a french example, bought Alpro.

This is culture war.
