Veganism is most certainly a privilege.

Yes there are impoverished parts of the world that veganism is considerably more accessible, India being a prime example. However I would argue that many people in India are vegan or vegetarian not necessarily by choice but out of either necessity or poverty.

Being able to choose what you eat in terms of:

1. Where it comes from
2. Cost
3. Packaging
4. Meat vs dairy vs plant matter
5. Vegan substitutes
6. Time to prepare
7. Healthiness
8. Cultural norms
9. Access to medical assessments to track potential deficiencies etc. etc.

This is all a matter of privilege. There are an enormous number of people globally that do not have one or more of these privileges. The difficulty of veganism is exacerbated or alleviated depending upon the circumstances one finds themselves in.

To act like these factors are not important considerations is idealistic.

Put your phone in grayscale, I guarantee you wont want to look at it any more

Bourgeois politics/elections is quite simply another battlefront on which we must fight. To say that you will not participate in it is to say that it is a battlefront you are willing to concede.

HOWEVER! Participation does not mean participating within a Bourgeois party!

It means creating your own political party, in which you do not at all expect to get elected and in which you treat the bourgeois parties as your enemies! Any reform that you push for or work to have enacted (perhaps even with the assistance of bourgeois parties) should be for the sole purpose of raising class consciousness and hastening the revolution!

This is elaborated upon by Lenin in “What is to be Done?” and “Left-Wing Communism, an Infantile Disorder”.

But at what cost?
