Most people agree

got any studies to support this?

According to the vegan society's definition of the term veganism, which is generally considered the go to definition, human breast milk when given with consent is vegan.

On the other hand while some attempt to debate the matter Honey is not considered vegan according to that definition.

can you link that?

[-] Khanzarate@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Honey is questionably vegan because the book that establishes the basic principles of veganism specifically said its people's choice whether to consider it as acceptable or not because of the lack of harm. If I recall correctly he said something like the debate is worth having but not worth fighting over, because everyone who is even having the debate is trying to do the right thing.

just saying it isn't very convincing.

[-] Tujio@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

This is anecdotal. This entire conversation is anecdotal.

[-] commie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 1 day ago

then I'll anecdotally let you know you're wrong

Sigh. Fine. "Most vegans I've talked to about this topic"

Showerthoughts

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.

Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. No politics
    • If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
    • A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct and the TOS

If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.

Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
