    I love The Deprogram podcast, have been listening since the beginning, and was a subscriber to all 3 respective youtube channels long before the podcast started. One thing that has kinda irked me to put it mildly, is that you guys sure do talk about food a lot. That in and of itself is no problem, but whenever it comes up, it’s invariably talk about how great certain fast food chains are and specifically how tasty the animal meat they killed and commodified is, which to some of your vegan fans is disappointing and even legit nauseating at times. I know to most it’s just humorous chitchat about something the three of you enjoy, and I get it, but I also know I’m not the only listener really put off by it.

    I wouldn’t presume to tell anyone what to talk about on their own podcast, but as a listener, I find myself consistently wishing you would seriously address leftist arguments for veganism and recognize the intersectional nature of socialism and non-human animal welfare. I remember Yugopnik saying some really positive things about veganism briefly in one of the livestreams (I can’t find which one now) when asked about it but then shortly after, in a regular episode he’s going off about how yummy veal is and even forgetting what animal it’s made from. stalin-stressed

    Do you think you could ever get some vegan comrades on the show to take you to task for your unexamined carnism? lol

    I want to add, more for some of the readers than for JT. Since someone always says the thought terminating cliche, I realize there is no ethical consumption under capitalism, but most leftists recognize there is a spectrum.
