I mean they literally inseparably related to political policies so yeah I think they're political. How can you separate the lgbt movement from gay marriage or civil rights? How can you separate veganism from ag-gag policies and the laws around modern day factory farming. I mean as a vegan and a gay person I don't understand how they could not be perceived as political. Sure its sad that people are against gay rights and stuff but its certainly political.
That's what I'm saying. They shouldn't be political issues. Everyone would hopefully agree. I'm not saying we shouldn't call them political issues, I'm lamenting that they have become political issues.
