Since being vegan is more of a political thing than anything else, it seems counterproductive to support a product that probably boosts milk sales more than almost anything else.

Edit: I’m not vegan. The comment seems to imply I am, so I’m just clarifying.

So you still buy products from companies that aren’t vegan friendly?

Bro do you even know what political means? Or are you just a u.s conservative that uses it as a buzzword?

Read my other response to you. And I’m not sure what the point of the second half of your comment is other than to demonstrate you think there are actually good politicians.

Political isn’t the right word, Veganism is based around morality.

I’m also not a vegan

Seems like a semantic point to me.

I’m just clarifying your poor word choice. Your point about Oreos marketing itself along with milk is still valid.

Just for the sake of actually clarifying, I say political because it influences which companies you’ll support and how you want legal policies to be developed. You can simply be vegetarian for moral reasons but if you’re going to promote it up to civic action that’s where veganism comes in.

I also say it’s semantics because which political issues are not also moral issues?

Edit: To the person that responded then blocked, stop being a coward. What’s the point of responding then blocking unless you think you don’t actually have a point?

Veganism doesn't require civic action, just not eating animal products. It's literally the same as vegetarianism on a political scale?

Not the right response. And you can block me if you don’t want to see what I’m saying.

“the practice of eating only food not derived from animals and typically of avoiding the use of other animal products.”
