I’m anti-slavery. I went from owning 7 slaves to 1 house slave and I only lightly beat them. Stop gatekeeping demanding I end all slavery, what I do is ethical.

Sincerely,

A vegan.

This is exactly why people don't associate with vegans btw. I'm entirely plant based and have been for years, but if you call me a vegan I will actually fight you.

No, husbandry and agriculture are not anywhere near slavery. Vegetarianism is no where near slavery.

If you released any domesticated animal into the wild they would die and/or destroy the ecosystem killing billions of people and animals.

I mean they are acting insufferable but if you value animals similarly to humans it's not an insane comparison. And even in their comparison if someone did that in the times of slavery I would still applaud that change.

Insufferable

Your achievements in cutting animal products out of your lifestyle are overshadowed by the people you almost certainly have persuaded not to try

It's funny how every non-vegan knows exactly how to convert people; better, in fact, than every single person who has experienced conversion. Hilarious, in fact.

"this is why you don't have more vegans, a vegan was correct about my intentions and inaction. That won't win me over! ...it wins over others but it won't win me!"

Really impressive how it's always "this isn't how you win over non-vegans" from the non-vegans and never the people who are vegan.

I just think they don't ever want to hear about their situation in life keeps pain existing where it shouldn't.

It's typical shitlibbery, we always have to cater to them and tone it down etc.

I don't care any more, let them rage.
