I escaped the Reddit regime a little while ago. I consider myself a marxist-leninist-MZT. Vegetarian and vegan for a few years. I've a lot of thoughts on how marxism and veganism are connected. Never wrote them down. I'd like to start smth like a club for marxist vegans to develop our own proletarian theory. Most vegan theory I found is either openly bourgeois (Francione is a literal TERF) or revisionist (anti-China, anarchist, libertarian). How about fixing this?

I think there's a connection between the commodification of animals and worker exploitation. The slaughter industry is one of the most brutal and inhumane work environments in the imperial core, almost nothing compares to the conditions that workers are under. I don't think that's a coincidence.

This is based on vibes and not theory, though.
