The Lemmy place to discuss veganism.

Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of animals, humans and the environment. In dietary terms it denotes the practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from animals.

Rules:

  1. Keep discussions civil.

  2. Arguments against veganism will be removed.

  3. No bigotry is allowed - including speciesism, racism, sexism, classism, ableism, castism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia.

  4. Sealioning will not be entertained.

  5. Please avoid sharing articles about celebrities, plant-based capitalism and artificial intelligence.

pay for all the things they need/bring them to the vets

Ok so to follow your comment.

  1. Go find an abandoned, stray animal in the street.
  2. Refuse to take it to the vet because paying them means “participation in the domestication industry”, maybe the dog is ill and malnourished from the street, so you would prefer the dog dies slowly of illness
  3. Cant buy appropriate dog food for the dog from a petshop, have to feed it human food. Which has to be very restricted vegan diet. Which will kill the dog as well.
  4. Cant go buy a toy, or a bed, or anything even remotely dog friendly
  5. Cant buy a collar and lead, to then walk the dog. I guess you would prefer just a rope or chain tied around their neck?
