You know you can do both, right? Be vegan and fight billionaires.
But I do somewhat agree that it is an elite issue, you do need to be in a somewhat privileged position to become vegan.
But also… who is promoting the global south to go vegan? As far as I’m aware, most vegans just try to get the people in generally developed countries to go vegan, as you have plenty of choices there, and most people are not fighting malnourishment.
And also, I think it’s perfectly justified and not dehumanizing to critique cultures that promote (animal) abuse. Culture is a terrible justification for anything, if that thing is actually harmful.
