Inspired by /r/debateavegan, Discuss With Vegans is an open space to ask questions and have discussions with vegans. It is open to vegans and nonvegans alike.

Rules:

  1. No hate speech. This includes but is not limited to attacks based on: race, sex, sexual orientation, religion, gender identity, disability, and ethnic or national origin.

  2. Potentially offensive content must be spoilered. It must be understood that what looks like food to a non-vegan is gore to vegans. All posts and comments that contain depictions of violence against animals, and imagery of products made from animals, must be spoilered.

  3. Keep submissions and comments on topic.

  4. Don't be rude to others. This includes using slurs, making troll accusations, or publicly doubting someone's sanity/intelligence.

  5. Argue in good faith. Users should act with the intention of having honest and meaningful discussion.

  6. Don't abuse the block feature. Do not block another user just so you can have the last word. Do not block members of community (who are otherwise in good standing) in order to preemptively remove them from discussion. Please let us know about potential block abuse via modmail and reports.

  7. No low-quality content. All posts and comments should contain more than just a meme, quip, sneer, or throwaway remark. Comments that contain meta-commentary about the subject of a post or its submitter should also include substantive, contributing content. No calls to "just google it." Do not comment with a bare link to an external source that does not also include relevant context. All posted topics must include supporting text in the body.

Thought I'd start populating this sub. Seems nice!

So, say you rescue chickens or raise them yourself without the intention of eating them. And they just live their lives and lay unfertilized eggs, e.g. eggs that will never become chickens. And the hen just lays them. Would it be alright to eat the eggs since they're the equivalent of menstruation?

A lot of people accuse vegan communities of being echochambers. There's good reason for vegan communities to be insular, if for no other reason than because there are so few of us.

But I want this to be a space where everyone feels comfortable to ask questions and have discussions. It's my hope to make a space where these contentious issues can be talked about in civil and fair ways.
