But as you said you wouldn't do it for the environmental damages, you won't do it all. So you're just talking complete shit.

    But that's not the point i was originally addressing. You shifted the focus towards the fact i'll be not going vegan.

    I made the ipotetic sentence that IF i would be going vegan i would do it just for the enviroment, ignoring the animal exploitation you addressed in the post, and by doing so i think my leftism would be intact.

    I was just saying that i dont agree with the fact that "veganism is leftism" and that the leftism of a person is also judged based on what he thinks of animal exploitation. If you want to stay here and point out im not going vegan because basically im too lazy, thats ok.
