About us

"Veganism is a way of living that is just awesome, plus we totally get enough protein! Also, we totally get enough oral sex. Probably more than you, to be honest. Not bragging, just stating facts." - The Vegan Society


"They asked me to be careful and I was confused as to why, my b12 count has never been higher!" - John


"Dominion is horror filmmaking at its absolute finest." - IMDB"

Rules

  1. No meatflakes or meatflake Apologists

Absolutely under no circumstances are meatflakes allowed to freely participate in this community. Meatflakes/Carnists includes all persons who are not ethical vegans. We do not condone carnist coddling and hand-holding of any sort. This includes no advocating for animal deaths. The right to an animals life is non-negotiable. No advocating in favor of animal testing, death, or mass euthanasia.

  1. No Non-Leftists, Health and/or Environmental "Vegans"

Veganism is a leftist social justice movement for animal liberation. It is not a diet for your health and it is not for the human environment. This also, obviously, means No slurs/bigotry, Why would you even want to?

  1. No support of PBC

We do not condone or advocate for plant based capitalism. We will never support animal agriculture companies, or any business that exists to extract profit from vegans while funding animal exploitation. We are frustrated these businesses have infiltrated every vegan space and being represented online by ads for TVP and first world convenience food. We're not here to make food aisles bigger, this is about animal liberation. We have all had this convo already which leads us to rule 5

  1. No Debates/Serious Discussion

This is a community for memes for vegans and by vegans. There are lots of other places where you can have your debates.

  1. No Hero Worship, Influencers or Marketing

This is a community to jerk about veganism, not a place to promote your ego, new products, or embarrass yourself worshiping a YouTuber. If it is going to a good veganism related cause then message us and it will be approved at our discretion.

  1. No Meta Posting

Meta posting is usually very boring and not fit for a meme subreddit. I wish I could extend this to all the other vegan subreddits. If you really need to post meta about something with circlejerk in the name get a grip and delete your account

My dude, are you okay? Like, I get some vegans that have some polarizing opinions, but....hating them shouldn't be the centerpiece of your personality.

Your entire online presence seems to be entirely made up of video games and hating a lifestyle that isn't even being forced upon you.

I'm not vegan or strictly vegetarian, I have cut back on a lot of meat, mostly for environmental and dietary concerns. I don't agree with a lot of the moral framework assumed by a lot of people on this sub. But overall, it's completely harmless, and actually helps reduce a lot of the negative environmental impact of the meat industry.

Also....."Legality = morality" is complete horseshit. All the worst crimes against humanity were all justified through legal systems .The Holocaust was legal under Nazi laws, chattel slavery was legal in the american south, even the rape of Nanjing was legal according to Japanese imperial law.

Even if this absurd statement was correct, it doesn't exactly help your argument at all. If Legality = Morality, and being vegan is legal... Wouldn't that mean veganism = morality?

things are getting heated, so truth to be told this is a satirical ~~sub~~ comm, we mock vegans and non-vegans alike, but most posters should be vegans, at least we were in the sub

Shouldn't satire be humourous? It just seems like adding a modifier of "circlejerk" is just a thinly veiled excuse to be a dick...

What benefit is there to pretending to be an unhinged asshole online? We already have an over abundance of those ruining every corner of the Internet.

I think you should probably ask yourself whether you are participating in actual satire, or if you just needed to give yourself an excuse to act out without feeling like an asshole.

I'm not annoyed, I'm honestly just curious about your motivations and your reasoning. No real judgement, I just think it's intriguing behavior.
