closet-keys:

the other day I saw some folks reblogging this post that was saying ALF members should be arrested for stealing property from farmers– 

and like let’s set aside the entirety of veganism and the fact that living beings are not property, and viewing living beings as property that is “processed” in a factory is an extremely disturbing symptom of capitalist socialization. We’ll set that entire discussion aside and call non-human animals “property”

Even then, it is a little 🤔 to me that self-identified leftists would advocate for the imprisonment of other activists for stealing property from huge companies. 

like why is it when people hear “vegan” they immediately resort to the most liberal nonsense ever? wanting folks using direct action against companies to have their identities revealed? supporting the carceral system?? really??? 

please take 10 seconds and process what you’re really advocating
