If you count humans as animals then cocaine and clothing from companies like Temu and Shein aren’t vegan.
Cocaine manufacturing and distribution is full of human exploitation and suffering. Using it should go against the vegan ethos of avoiding consumption of things that are the product of exploitation. Similar to honey, milk, or eggs.
Similarly, Shien and Temu make nearly all of their products using slave labor in terrible working conditions using dangerous chemicals without any precautions.
Oh I wholeheartedly agree with this.
Veganism should be based around the fact that there’s no reasonable or meaningful distinction between animals and humans. We should reject animal suffering for exactly the same reasons we seek to end human suffering.
That kind of blew my mind.
Is there a high percentage of vegans using cocaine? Genuine question here. I do completely agree with you, though.
As a vegan, this is actually why I quit using cocaine lol
Damn that is enlightening.
We’ve humanised ourselves to the point that we forgot we were animals, and to the point that it’s a bad thing!
