"honestly, whats the point of doing anything. humans are a virus to planet earth"

Lot of comments(only 2) have pointed out some issues with this video. I definitely agree, it's an *interesting* take. Ultimately, what the point is: veganism in practice is not just the lack of consuming animal produce, but the lack of using it entirely. It is also the spreading of veganism, as to not spread it is to go against it's ideology by promoting continuation of letting animals suffer. This means that quite often, vegans behave quite hostile towards indigenous groups for not subscribing to their ideology. That is, by all accounts and definitions, vegans partake in colonization by telling indigenous groups they cannot partake in their animist practices that have persisted for thousands of years. Veganism as an idea also stems from modern Western ideology that dismisses animist ideas about reciprocation etc. Ultimately, being a vegan is an odd spectrum between going against the ideology by not being vegan enough, or colonizing and supporting cultural erasure and loss of animist perspective in the world. Vegetarianism however is much different, and has been practiced by cultures across the world many times in history(namely in India, see: Emperor Ahsoka etc)
