Vegans need to stop comparing the treatment of animals to slavery
A disturbing illustration has been doing the rounds on social media recently. As soon as I see it I feel a little sick. On the left, it’s a familiar image, although one that will always be disturbing: a man, presumably African-American, hanging from a tree. But next to it is a pig strung up in the same way. The caption reads: “Then we had racism: Now we have speciesism.”
