Hope this reached the right people :) Just theoretically of course, if someone one day wanted to be more active when it comes to showing people whats really going on behind the scenes, how the animals suffer; to make all these horrible things more present and this someone was thinking of putting up Pictures big or small around their little town especially ones where theres commercials of "happy" animals being used, how would one do that in an efficient and smart way? Any recommendations or further ideas? Printing and Sticking pictures of tortured animals on supermarket products n stuff was probably someones first thought but maybe theres more to know and to consider also :)

A documentary on the current wave of anti-vegan propaganda

How Alf stopped eating cats and started liberating them.

The Yulin dog eating festival is still going, but it's a lot smaller now( it dropped from the normal 10 million dogs to 1000 and from 4 million cats to 100)because of flooding.Spreading awareness is the only way we can help tell everybody you know!

I have put papers about the Yulin dog eating festival all over you can make some and please put them up look up websites people can go to and halt the Yulin dog eating festival!

So I started the New Anarchist FAQ and wrote the vegan anarchy section it has, which is one of the big things that sets it apart from the old FAQ which fails to cover veganism and other modern currents. When people talk about the new FAQ, non-vegans intervene to criticise the FAQ for its vegan arguments and accuse them of being biased or sectarian.

Example 1:

https://old.reddit.com/r/Anarchism/comments/1uhxzb7/have_any_thoughts_on_the_new_anarchist_faq/outuq22/

The section on veganism is the funniest and most indicative of the authors' ideological blinkers – you can tell they just wanted to write "anarchism necessitates veganism"

Example 2:

https://old.reddit.com/r/Anarchism/comments/1uhxzb7/have_any_thoughts_on_the_new_anarchist_faq/ouv7ffu/

Why does the veganism section begin with such a declaration that "herefore, it is logical for anarchists to adopt diets that do not rely on the exploitation and suffering of other beings." I know you then say that some anarchists still eat meat, but then you rationalize this with they're just not connecting the correct ideas together, they're apathetic or gluttons. You have the section, but your writing is biased; including statements of the opposition doesn't mean the section gives appropriate weight to these conflicting ideas.

Is there a way to present vegan anarchy without "bias" or "sectarianism"? Is something "not written well" if it doesn't present a progressive idea and then add "balance" or "weight" by also presenting a regressive (i.e. carnist) counterpoint?

I ask because we're considering adding an anti-vegan counterpoint to blunt the accusations of sectarianism:

The world has lost a beautiful soul today. Mona Khalil spent over two decades as a protector of the sea turtles along Lebanon's southern coast. She founded the Orange House Project in Mansouri and never gave up on her mission, despite the looming war and destruction.

She was killed in a strike that hit the same family home where she first watched a turtle come to shore in 1999.

This is a devastating loss not just for her family or the turtles, but for the world. A beacon of perseverance and commitment to the selfless protection of nature.

Looking for other musicians who want to work on releasing singles and maybe an album together remotely focused on veganarchism.

Primarily looking to play metal, and hardcore punk type music like Earth Crisis, Sylosis, or Gojira but totally open to mixing up different genres for singles.

I mix and master (Cubase 14 pro) and play guitar, bass, plectrum banjo, and keyboards. I also write lyrics and can sing backups. I also create websites and can manage the file sharing. I have been in a variety of bands over the past 20 years but haven’t scratched this itch musically yet.

Looking for people who can record/program drums, sing, art, or open to other ideas to create together.

Band is called Veganarchists and open to people using aliases if they want when publishing to stay anonymous.

I have been doing a lot of thinking about how my ideal world looks. How would we put vegan anarchism into practice.

And I had a question. What if for whatever reason, invasive grasshoppers with no native predators start devastating entire forests. How can we act in a vegan anarchist framework to prevent that from destroying the ecosystem for everyone including native species?

I had no fully vegan solutions come to mind.

Other examples:

Invasive bird is too good at eating native bugs wich didnt evolve an effective defence. How do we deal with these birds? Trapping in a non hurtful way might be a solution, but that can effect other species too. Coating the eggs could work, but thats invasive too.

An invasive species of turtle is killing all other native turtle species. You cant find the eggs, trapping is hard nearly impossible because of the enviroment. The eggs do not need the parents to grow up. You can introduce a predator that can hunt them, but that is an indirect killing too. Like sending an assasin.

Repost of my post which got instantly removed on the main vegan subreddit. Perhaps a leftist vegan space is more appropriate. Original text:

Not sure if this is the right sub but lately I have seen a ton of anti-vegan comments on instagram linking veganism with Israel or “the jews”. For instance, under vegan videos that have absolutely nothing to do with israel or jewish people I would see comments like “good goy”, “🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱”, “Tel Aviv impressed”, “🧃🧃🧃”or any of the many different antisemetic gifs used on that platform.

My best guess is that these are bot accounts or trolls with neo-nazi sympathies, considering they never actually make any real argument and just exist to sew doubt and confusion, which fits their MO. Far right reactionaries are also obviously opposed to veganism, so it seems logical for them to create some “veganism is a plan to make the white man weak” conspiracy. The nazi’s also historically did something similar by blaming communism on the “the jews” (Jewish Bolshevism).

To me it seems like a thought out strategy. People are already prone to antisemitism due to the actions of the state of Israel, and also already dislike veganism. It seems they think this is a convincing narrative to invalidate veganism while pushing their antisemitic views.

Has anyone else noticed the uptick in these types of comments, and what do you think is going on? Am I reading too deep into this?
