The point is that you shouldn’t base your decisions on whether or not you can say you are “vegan”. You should base your decisions on your own sense of ethics.

Whether or not beekeeping harms bees is a matter of debate. If a person believes honey is ethical, that’s their decision. Who gives a fuck if it meet someone else’s standard for a particular label?

Veganism is an ethical framework. Thats the whole point. Its center piece is to reduce harm to living creatures.

This seems like a semantics argument, which is pointless. The label vegan is immensely useful to vegans, as shocking as that might be from the outside.
