My other favorite is that veganism is for white people.
People love to call veganism ‘privileged,’ while conveniently ignoring the fact that the only reason animal products are even close to being accessible for the average consumer is because they’re factory farmed, slaughtered and packed by grossly underpaid labourers working in dangerous conditions, and then massively subsidised by all of our taxes.
Cattle farming predates taxes and subsidies. Animals have been traditionally grown to provide additional food while feeding on crop remains. Where do you think hay or corn stalks go or why there's no widespread use of carnivore meat?
