Hey, I didn’t make plantbased to be a less committed version to veganism. I made it because from reddit to lemmy every vegan community I’ve encountered has power tripping toxic mods and I wanted to provide an alternative space.

I’m fully committed to my veganism. But I also wanted people who aren’t to be able to discuss it without being attacked.

After I wrote this I see you’re writing from a vegan instance. I have less experience with there versus vegan communities around here.

Then I’m sorry, your first two comments made me think otherwise. I’ve been seeing a lot of toxicity and bad actors recently.

I agree with you from a personal diet perspective and as a Buddhist, I don’t think it’s wrong. I do think there are ethical virtues and it benefits many beings from not eating animal products though :)

I don’t mean to be rude but you come to a post asking about good vegan subs saying why it’s wrong. Read the room

I wrote a reply then saw your other comment and realized you’re just arguing

Eh, veganism is quite clear in that it doesn’t support the use of any animal products. If one doesn’t live by that fully everyday there is still benefit to doing it in part.

You’re also wrong about vegans not being concerned about supply chain ie how people get there food and how it affects people and animals.

There’s no problems with morals lol. Are you going to argue that not killing is like a religion?

Direct action? You’re implying something beyond ethics and diet. But what? Honestly don’t know! ;)

How do you see vegans organizing and creating this world without preaching? How do you spread an ethical diet? Like that one dude saying struggle sessions and party line… for a diet, what

Wait so is this real? haha This is funny

I will try now at https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/plantbased

This dude made it a website lol https://github.com/0x00er/pISSstream

At 10%

Thanks for taking the rudeness claim seriously! :) I fully agree with you.

Previously I started a plant based community on Lemmy.world maybe I will try to actually be active. You’ve inspired me

Previously I found that they were staunchly anti-anything but vegan and carried over said rudeness from the reddit communities. As a vegan myself it was a big turn off. I asked about this and they banned me. Reminiscent of lemmygrad on anything but their specific MLM ideology.

by that you mean state terror?

Thanks for the knowledgeable break down :)

I didn’t know much of that especially dbzer0 federating hexbear but not lemmygrad. Wonder why?

You’re smart about knowing the clear biases versus the more subtle one’s. Well said!

I never had any particular problem at lemmy.world but I really didn’t like their Luigi decision. The admin of dbzer0 seems nice. I directly asked about not liking ai, which is their focus, and they were very chill in their response

My name is a pun off of miao being meow in chinese but sounds similar to Mao. But yes, that is where their censorship is and I disagree with it, but I also disagree with lemmygrad/hexbear censorship.

Admin’s didn’t like Luigi discussions to the point of not allowing discussion of Jury nullification. It wasn’t not supporting violence but not supporting most discussion of this topic. To me, that shows protection of a certain neoliberal class. Like the opposite of lemmygrad.

it made me get off of lemmy.world

Could you be anymore vague

What is shameful about loving Reddit? Honestly asking.

Biggest red flags I saw was non-FOSS, beginning of enshitification, overall cringe and mean user base.
