I don't know anything about the channel, Earthling Ed, and usually don't watch these kinds of "debates". But I was interested in this one because I wanted to see how a vegan activist would approach indigenous practices towards hunting.

I have to say, the student came across terribly. They were not indigenous, but kept using indigenous practices and worldviews to defend their own personal meat consumption. Now, there were a lot of different camera angles and cuts in the video, so it could be edited to make the student look bad. But, as far as I can see, the student said "because Indigenous people living in far off places need to kill to be able to survive, we in the city should be able to as well."

Carninism is one of the most absurd and silly sides to hellworld. It isn't even about eating meat. It's contrarian toxic bullshit overreacting to the very existence of veganism.

Unless you live in the Arctic and eat everything edible in an animal to get scarce nutrients, there really is no excuse to not have some damn plants in a diet.

Welcome to /c/vegan and congratulations on your first steps toward overcoming liberalism and ascending to true leftist moral superiority.

No plant-based diet bullshit or promotion of plant-based capitalism. Veganism isn't about you, it's about historical materialist anti-speciesism, anti-racist animalization, and animal liberation. Ethical vegans only.
No omni apologists or carnists. Babystepping is for libs, and we're not here to pat you on the back. Good faith questions and debate about how to fight for animal liberation are allowed.
No advocating violence to any species for any reason. If you think this is negotiable GTFO. This includes but is not limited to animal testing, slaughter, and mass euthanasia. Anything that promotes speciesism or the commodification of animals will be removed.
Use Content Warnings and NSFW tags for triggering content. Especially if a comrade requests it.
Questions about diet belong in c/food. It's also a great place to share recipes.
