    I’ve always wondered if vegetables from a farm that uses horse-drawn tills instead of tractors would be vegan… It’s a real question, but everyone I ask thinks that I’m trolling.

        I mean vegans want veganic produce the most. But it’s not widespread enough to be able to only eat that. It’s not about being perfect but doing what you can.

      Here’s my weird question: if faux leather is plastic and someone is vegan for environmental reasons, would leather be preferable? What if it’s a byproduct and would otherwise be trashed? These are things I think about as someone who tries to reduce my impact on the environment as much as I feasibly can in a capitalist society.

      Each vegan will have their own answer. If you are truly curious, and a vegan is sharing their mindset with you, ask them.

      If insects are animals then are vegans getting all of their food from 100% organic gardens that grow in a cooperative manner?

      Oooooooh, even using tractors could be considered non-vegan, if they’re powered by fossil fuels, then they’re powered from the remains of dinosaurs, which were very much animals
