What can we do to prevent this? There aren’t that many of us, and posts being hidden can really hinder our discussions.

    Check the bottom post comments and see for yourself how many are self proclaimed non vegans. That post was not a discussion among peers who want justice for the animals. Just check the same type of discussions on other vegan forums, the arguments vegans make against feeding animals a meat diet is very different to what was presented in that topic.

    It shouldn’t matter how controversial a post is among our community, we are here for the same reason and should strive to push the animal movement forward.

        No one should “get animals” ever. We’re fucking vegans. Owning animals for the purpose of companionship is exploitation.

        But that doesn’t change the fact that there exist animals that need to be taken care of. And there’s no point in doing that if we have to murder other animals to do it.
