As January approaches, so does the debate within the animal liberation movement about whether individuals, groups or organisations should support the Veganuary campaign. Opinions within the animal liberation movement are divided; some see Veganuary as an important strategic tool for building a better world for non-human animals. Others see it as nothing more than a capitalist publicity stunt with no impact whatsoever. Who’s right?

Purism is likely the most unattractive (and right-wing) quality of modern mainstream “veganism” and probably our number one obstacle to gaining strong solidarity from other socio-political (Left) movements. What is "vegan purism" and how can we respond to it?

As individuals who have taken a critical stance of the mainstream vegan movement, we often hear that there's too much infighting in the activist community. What is infighting and who is to blame for it?

Why does the speciesist Left continue to deny and make a mockery of anti-speciesism? Why do they like to say that being anti-speciesist detracts from one's work towards ending other types of oppression - when they would never suggest a zero-sum situation about other social justice movements?

Veganism and anarchism. Negotiation is over. Moving beyond liberal veganism.
