Ultimately, veganism relies on personal decisions of morality. It's not fully prescriptive and leaves room for differing opinions. The question here is whether or not the relationship is exploitative.

This leaves some room for nuance. There's a difference between purchasing a pet from a breeder, which adds further demand, and adopting an animal that would otherwise be euthanized, for example.

There is no room for nuance in a fucking circlejerk community, if you disagree with me you’re my number one enemy and I will destroy you and your reputation.

I fed my cat lettuce and now its first investigative documentary is coming out titled "Catastrophe"!

I always thought that as an obligate carnivore if you feed the cat lettuce it explodes in a little furry fireball.

It actually breaks down into little soot sprites who then immediately get to work building a multi-story wooden gazebo around the place the cat once was.
