Individualizing a social problem
I agree with many points made in this article. But, it seems like there are only two points of criticism for Klausner: mostly that the authors are deceptive and less so that this is perpetuating beauty culture, shaming women, etc. I agree that these are worthwhile points. But, this piece settles for individualizing a social problem, villifying the two authors. I agree, they sound contemptuous. But, wouldn't more context be helpful, for example, about Peta's sexism, beauty culture, etc.? Surely, the problem is larger. Also, there's something implicit in Klausner's article -- at least to me -- about vegan advocates being awful, rigid people.
