Maybe this should be elementary: no, there are no right-wing vegans. But at least Lifting Vegan Logic has said that he is neither left, or right. Usually I would say it means he is right-wing, so I am wrong?

I would argue being anti-human disqualifies you from veganism as it is inherently speciesist.

    Yes, but right wing people usually have "cognitive dissonance" so they don't have a coherent logic for their life. And I'm not talking about "knowing you should be vegan but too lazy/self-indulgent to do so", I'm talking about examples like:

    • "I'm vegan cuz it's the right thing, and it's also the right thing for people with inferior genes to live in poverty and work for me"

    But there's also examples of:

    • "I'm vegan not only cuz I love my golden retriever but also because it's healthier so I get to live longer and with more energy which is exactly what (((they))) don't want"

    • "I'm vegan cuz that gets me a personality and it's an elitist fad so it increases my chances to fuck hot rich people"
