An online space for the vegans of Lemmy.
Rules and miscellaneous:
- 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)
- 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
- Use content warnings and NSFW tags for triggering content
- Circlejerking belongs to /c/vegancirclejerk
- All posts should abide by Lemmy's Code of Conduct

One of the reasons why mice are used in medical research is they have short lifespan so we can observe them for all stages of their life, and for several generations.
Good fucking luck doing that with humans.
Plus, these morons have no idea just how many animals are used in medical research. Are these dimwits suggesting we should have millions of people being test subjects?
Choosing this ridiculous hill to die on is going to make them look like nutters even when they're talking about reasonable things like meat industry.
Progressives and not being able to pick which battle to fight. Name a more iconic duo.
