the definition from the vegan society makes no mention of consent, only exploitation. the barest definition of exploitation is “use”. wherever you heard breast milk is vegan, it’s not consistent with the vegan society definition.
I highly doubt that they are using the “use” meaning of exploitation. Pretty sure they mean the “abuse” meaning, where consent takes a big part. In any case, I’m not that invested in the topic so if you think otherwise let’s agree to disagree.
it would be easy enough to clear up this ambiguity, by choosing a clearer word. they have chosen not to do so. the more expansive definition is the simplest one. but believe whatever you want
And humans are animals yet human breast milk is considered vegan. It’s about consent and exploitation tbh.
