Veganism as a barrier to involvement in the animal rights movement
The concept of personal purity associated with veganism adds a fundamentalist religious element to the animal rights movement, which is unhelpful. This creates a gap in support for the cause, as many people are sympathetic to the overall political project but refuse to join due to veganism. Veganism is often seen as unrealistic for most people, making it a challenge to attract non-vegans. This limited perspective results in a smaller and weaker social organization within the movement. In contrast, other movements like climate change and labor unions have a broader acceptance criteria that allows for greater participation. There is a need to address this issue by creating a stronger sense of community and expanding the movement's inclusivity.
