Perhaps. I have had to avoid participating and a number of the vegan Lemmy communities because of the aforementioned contentiousness. I’d be wary about participating in another.
I hear you. I’ve noticed that there tends to be a certain puritanical aspect to many vegetarian and vegan communities which I find somewhat perplexing, and think often runs counter to their own goals.
My hope for the new community would be to focus on the technological and economic barriers (and breakthroughs) to scaling production of lab-grown meat.
Ethical and ecological factors are an implicit bonus, but I don’t expect there would really be much to discuss.
