i've been reading thru hexbear's code of conduct to make sure i don't break any rules and one part of it confused me a bit. in the "topics that must be CW'd" section, one of the bullet points says the following:

"Violence towards animals or humans such as corpses and carnist products..."

in what context would you CW something with carnist products in them? is mentioning non vegan food by itself fine? does it apply to images or to text too? in what case would a comment/ post be removed to enforce this rule? i am not vegan (will go vegan eventually, i'm still adjusting to eating less meat) so i'm not sure how to follow the rule. any help is appreciated.

The main point for understanding the majority of the rules is to ask yourself, does this alienate a comrade? We have several vegan comrades on the site.

It's generally images of meat, from what I've seen.

so pictures of raw meat must be CWd? yeah that makes sense

Definitely raw meat. If you check the food comm rules, any images containing animal products have to be spoilered, not sure about site-wide.

i see why that would be required. thanks for answering.

If you post cooked meat too it's best to check as nsfw

Images of meat and dairy. Though I might also CW if you mention these things. I've given CWs in the mega when I mention cooking with meat or animal products.

Also discussing non vegan industries, that's why most of Lukashenko speeches are CWed

It's very simple: if your post contains a picture or description of food, you need to include a content warning that it includes food. Especially in the /c/food community. Any food could potentially be prepared using animal products, which could be hurtful to some comrades.

put a cw every time you mention food of any kind other than beans
