-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

There will have to be a lot of changing hearts & minds before this would strengthen the revolution instead of alienating people. Remember the party must not run too far ahead of the masses. However, the arguments are simply too strong for anybody seriously engaged in shaping the ideology of the party to ignore. There have been plenty of successful-ish leftist revolutions that had (from our modern perspective) glaring gaps in their attitude toward certain oppressed classes of people, whether from failure of party leadership or desire not to alienate the masses. I believe animal liberation is another of these instances.
Anyway, most leftist spaces I've inhabited are very tolerant of at least vegetarianism, and all potluck-style events will be heavily skewed toward vegetarian-friendly dishes (this also serves halal & kosher people by default). Vegetarians & vegans are very well represented in these spaces, often reaching 25-50% by informal count (groups of anarchist bent are often much higher). So things are heading in the right direction.
