    Sorry, is this post satire or are you talking about satire you did not recognize? NEVER seen a vegan call breast milk non-vegan and have in fact actually seen more discussion about whether vegans should be breastfeeding children at all, I.e. is it healthy to do so with their diet.

    You’ve put the word debate in quotation marks flippantly like there’s an obvious answer, but I’m pretty sure you just misunderstood a conversation rife with sarcasm or taken out of context (or straight up made it up).

      Yeah, I’ve never seen a vegan say that either. Didn’t say I did. It’s always carnists trying to catch vegans on some imagined technicality so they can pretend they’re hypocrites. I put the word “debate” in quotation marks because there isn’t one—it’s not a debate if one side is founded entirely on ignorance of the other’s position

      I think the point was that some numbskulls try to pull a “checkmate vegans” claiming that. You probably know the type, obnoxiously trying to butt in on vegan discussions and go “but if you’re fine with breastfeeding, you’re not really vegan”, misunderstanding (or misconstruing) the motivations in the same vein as mentioned before.

        It just struck me as weird. Really strange thing to add in an edit considering the rest of the post, just extremely confusing in context.
