    How often have you heard — “would you tell an Indigenous person to go vegan?”

    Never, I never have, and I’m fucking native with long black hair lol.

    In fact, the argument that veganism is incompatible with Indigenous culture is unfounded. Advocates for humans, animals and our ecosystems are natural allies in the fight against oppressive colonial structures.

    … what? People are saying indigenous people must eat meat? Are people arguing that paleo diets are/n’t vegan? They’re not… non-obligates going to eat any calories they can get their hands on…

    Is this some weird self-persecuted vegan schtick they only accuse other vegans of being?

    The mechanical action of water running and wiping is what takes out 90% of germs and bacteria already. Soap is only responsible for that next 9%.

    There’s still 1% unless you autoclave it.

    Tldr: You probably don’t need soap for dishes if you wash them during initial rinse immediately after use and they aren’t super gross.

    You still want to wash and soap your hands cause 10% of cold germs is plenty.

    Also quit licking your fingers to open the plastic bags for produce at the store you filthy fucks.
