||
|
||
>Veganism is impossible
|
||
|
||

|
||
2. On what modality is veganism impossible?

|
||

|
||
3. On what modality is it impossible to casually stroll without causing animal suffering?
|
||
3. Why is it assumed that veganism is a deontological thesis?
|
||
1. If it's not assumed that veganism is a deontological thesis, then what's the argument that the action of walking is less compatible with vegan principles than not walking?
|
||
|
||

|
||
