I’m a queer nb girl and like. The gems are agender
People calling them lesbians on the spot make me uncomfy bc they automatically assume that they’re girls just bc they’re feminine presenting. And like, no….
thank you.
Ruby refers to Sapphire as “she” and since they are romantically involved, I trust Ruby would talk about Sapphire in her preferred pronouns. So, at the very least, one of the garnet ship is female. And if Jasper was running from the direction ruby came from after yelling “where is she” meaning while yes, they are sexless, both Ruby AND Sapphire identify as female.
Veganism is cool but there’s a sense of ableism, classism, and racism that kinda comes off of some vegans and it’s gross.
One of you wanted me to elaborate on this and I’m gonna try and be quick and concise.
Some people physically cannot survive off of a plant-based diet. Congratulations if you are not one of them, but don’t go shouting at people. You are essentially guilt-tripping them into dropping nutrients/vitamins they need, that come from animal products.
Not everyone can afford the vegan lifestyle, let alone support a family on it. You would need the advice and close attention of health care professionals to raise a child on a vegan diet. Let’s also talk about the, underpaid, PoC who are farming your plant-based diet. Why do you advocate for animals and not bat an eye at injustices faced by people of colour?
Food and culture go hand in hand and a lot of you WHITE vegans think it’s so damn easy for people to leave meat. I’m lactose intolerant and I don’t eat red meat at all so it’s pretty difficult going to family parties and not being able to eat what is there. You can’t look at cultural dishes and say “why the fuck are you eating a dead animal” that’s very ethnocentric and bigoted of you. Let PoC eat their cultural dishes.
I respect your lifestyle, but don’t be so god damn condescending and forceful with your ‘movement’.
