Wow, good morning. Just saw another person call veganism "classist" in front of my poor Black vegan ass, who is currently getting food support through MA to fill the gap of foodstamp benefits that were cut to $16. Somehow I manage to still eat a plant-based diet.

And even in an emergency to survive, if I were forced to eat animal products I would still be vegan. Nothing about veganism says you have to eat plant-based until you die and then just say fuck it and go back to wearing leather and fur, and using bee products.

There are more ways to avoid animal exploitation than just your diet. I know people with eating disorders who have had serious issues with eating things with that aren't plant-based during binge---still vegan if they don't exploit animals in ways they can avoid.

Y'all need to quit bringing classism, racism, and ableism into this, cause it is seriously disrespectful to your poor, BIPOC, disabled comrades who are Vegan. Like seriously check yourselves and leave us out of it. We can speak for ourselves.

Also, you look foolish as hell arguing in favor for the meat and dairy lobbies and calling yourself a leftist. If you want to know why and are willing to listen hit me up. Otherwise leave me the hell alone.
