Long story short. I say i want to become a vegan (currently vegetarian) and i only eat dairy when its in powder in chips/candy. So very rarely. Problem is that they even removed the rant i spend so much time on that was against both industries. This is wrong. The people out there seem very anti-vegetarian and compare us to carnists. This isn’t fair and its not normal either, because i have never heard vegans being against vegetarians. But why remove the post i made that encouraged vegan things and not supporting the dairy industry? How does that help? The people over there are not just vegans, but ultra vegan supremacists, and they hate anyone that has slightly different opinions than them. This is the wrong way to go. Comparing vegetarians to animal haters is fucking insane, considering how many animals i have supported and rescued. How many animal products i have avoided. How much i have done. Show some respect. This is kinda like black supremacy, it comes from something good and evolves into “we VS them.” Do not waste your time there. TL;DR: They do not wanna ally with vegetarians, even the ones like me that extremely rarely consumes something with dairy/milk in it. They seem pretty eco-fascist considering they hate others opinions, even if i respect theirs.

Yep. Vegan tankies lol.
Hexbear and lemmygrad both get cut off for having a “tankie” reputation.

lemmy.ml has similar issues, but most other instances give them a pass as they are the ORIGINAL lemmy and contain a lot of valued communities.
