That was a quick comparison with white supremacy, veganism isn’t nearly as important as that.
Vegans are not special. It’s like if I had the same nationality as someone, do you really need to call out someone from the US that shit on European (assuming you are from the US) ? Maybe, maybe not, some do, some don’t. Same for veganism.
I assumed he meant vegan aren’t calling out extremists enough, obviously there are vegans calling out other vegans if that’s what you want. I searched “militant are bad for veganism” and found this article www.refinery29.com/…/vegan-extremist-language that list a few vegans that are against militant.
(I did not check further on theses accounts btw, if they changed their mind since that doesn’t mean there are no better example).
And I never wanted to say most vegans agree with extremists. Theses assholes are ruining veganism image. Without them people would hear vegan and think about nature, saving animals, saving the evironnement. But right now they only think about 30 years old Karen screaming at them for no reason calling people murderer and so on.
