  • Just because it isn’t capable of causing any meaningful change doesn’t mean it’s useless.

    I see a lot of folks on .ml and .hexbear not understand this part. It’s like all change must be meaningful, and if it’s not then it’s not worth our time.

    Lenin taught us that we need to build within the system of the masses in order to tip them over, not overturn it outright. There is a specific time and place for when change is the most impactful














  • Nah, it’s not hard to make dishes modular. Not doing that is entirely disrespectful.

    But if the hosts show no interest in making dishes vegan-possible, I usually bring my own food anyways.

    If there’s no coordination up front, the burden of which must fall no the hosts, I don’t see any issue with the vegans in question taking care of themselves while the omnis take care of themselves. Visiting each other can be more than sharing the same or a similar meal.

    It’s kind of the same thing when hosts ask guests to Bring Your Own Beer (BYOB). With that, the hosts make the request explicit. With vegan food, it’s more implicit unless the hosts tell the vegans to do so.
