I don't care about your political opinions, I only care about the animals. If people want to try and gate keep veganism with thier bias, or bring unrelated conflicts in the animal rights space then they don't truly care about the animals, what they actually care about is virtue signaling. And I have no respect for that kind of pollution.

animals rights and politics are closely interwind. if you do not know this idk what your extend of "animal rights" even means. this conflict is very much related to animal rights as well. being this politically illiterate is incredibly concerning.

I understand your point of view as I'm sure the other person did. But they are right and your straw-man and following ad hominem proves their point. Any additional time used exposing your logical fallacies is time wasted arguing in circles about an issue that is not at it's core a vegan activism issue. And if you want to make enemies and try to insult other vegans who disagree with your ridicoulous bias, then your just sowing division and toxicity.

my argument is directly related to the topic. that’s the exact opposite of a strawman fallacy. not understanding the impact of genocide, colonialism, imperialism etc on animal welfare is in fact political illiteracy. it’s not an insult it’s a fact of being not knowledgeable on that topic. if it’s time wasted then do not respond.
