Vegans being banned and comments being deleted from [email protected] for being fake vegans.

From my perspective, the comments were in no way insulting and just part of completely normal interaction. If this decision reflects the general opinion of the mod team, then from my perspective, the biggest vegan community on Lemmy wants to be an elitist cycle of hardcore vegans only, not allowing any slightly different opinion. Which would be very unfortunate.

PS: In contrast to the name of this community, I don’t want to insult anyone here being a ‘bastard’. I just want to post this somewhere on neutral ground. I would really appreciate an open discussion without bashing anyone.

    Indeed, I have not studied philosophy and have only received an introduction and high-level overview from school. Which is why I’m continuously stating that I am far from an expert in regards to ethics and philosophy and this is more of an amateur reading.

      if you don’t know, you can just not say anything.

        I don’t know maths beyond university linear algebra and calculus. I can still provide my opinion on math problems despite my limited knowledge because knowledge is not binary.

          If you presented your ideas on mathematics that are above your understanding level, you’d be called out on the same way.

          you didn’t frame it as an opinion. it was stated as fact. and it’s wrong
