She’s feeding people in need with donated food. And still providing vegan meals?
I can’t work up a concern.
She’s even taking care to ensure that there is no cross contamination… but apparently some of the hardcore Vegans are unhappy with that and see it as a betrayal.
Go eat somewhere else.
They are, but of course, all the restaurants are struggling in Asheville right now, including all the Vegan ones (that this woman helped make space for in town).
I really take issue with that approach. If the goal of “militant veganism” (If that’s the right thing to call it?) is to get the world to stop eating animals, alienating places trying to do the right thing but also trying to, you know, exist is probably not the way to do that.
I’m super impressed that Disney, who serves millions of meals over here in Florida, quietly but decisively moved to ensure every menu of its more than 200 restaurants had not only real vegan options on it, but also at least one “meat alternative” as well, ensuring both “never meat-like” vegans and omnivores who want to try eating less meat (like our family) have options. Some of the choices in both categories are really good and have become our go-to’s when we eat out here as a result.
I am certain this one determined change from Disney has done more to reduce the number of Animal products consumed here than opening a handful of “vegan-only” restaurants on property ever would.
Her house, her rules.
If you’re that put out - think of some way to support those needy folks where she can still do so without these donations & find a way to fund it.
Russia is disputing this… we’ll see.
They can certainly prevent her from saying anything.
Edit:
This will be Puttin with Assad’s billions.
ala Going Postal I’m picturing Putin as Vetinari giving her as Moist the option to turn down his deal to stay and just walking through the door.

Because that is not a conflict of interest, is it?
Oh I’m sure he’ll tell everyone there is no conflict at all and then that will be that. Any traditional media group that points out the obvious conflict will be accused of being “with the terrorists”
Syrian activists also called for the British government to strip her from her citizenship, like Shemima Begum.
Well, they can’t. Shemima was made stateless. Stripping Asma Al-Assad of her citizenship still leaves her with Syrian citizenship
Like everything else involved with Luigi’s arrest, I suspect this is a deliberate, performative show of inequality. “Do not terrify the rich, we will openly make sure you don’t get a fair trial and nobody will even care. We own the judges and make the laws.”
