What happened in the vegan community?

I hadn't heard about any of this until seeing that ToS post.

I don't think bees are killed for their honey.
I could be wrong though.

You might be mixing up vegetarianism and veganism. Vegans also don't drink milk or eat eggs. You don't need to kill a cow or a chicken to get either.

Indeed I was, thank you.

You don’t need to kill a cow or a chicken to get either.

You kinda do though, at least if you're purchasing those products. Male chickens and calves definitely have to be killed to sustain those industries.

You're not wrong, but it's kinda besides the point in this argument about honey not being vegan.

I agree, but originally the question was about cheese and eggs. The honey argument came a bit out of nowhere tbh.
