Earlier today a vegan made a post with a white supremacist dog whistle by satirizing a person who's people "have been eating dog for thousands of years". Another Indigenous person and I did our best to call out the white supremacist nature of the discussion, so the poster later edited the title to specifically reference European people, which may have been well intentioned but only served to gaslight us by making it look like we were over-reacting and looking to be offended.

I came here for the leftism, and stayed for the Trans Rights. I'm a 2-spirit, native leftist. I have myriad reasons why I may or may not choose or even have the choice of veganism and any moralizing or condescension that comes from white vegans is an extension of over 500 years of an imposition of an alien value system which is profoundly disconnected from this land and the plants and animals which are our blood relations.

I have seen enough of white people shaming us for what we eat, and even what most do not. Ask a white person about dog eating, most will be racist to Chinese.

Me buying my weekly pound of plastic wrapped chicken, beef and pork, the production of which is the largest chunk of my carbon footprint, slaughters several animals, exploits foreign labor, produces toxic waste which ruins native land, and spreads zoonotic diseases: "lol white vegans are so preachy"
