Asklemmy

I would be here all night if I asked the Lemmy crowd every question I had, but one thing that always has stood out to me is what's on the tin. Call me one of those childfree peoples for asking it how I did (note ahead of time that I do not judge people who have kids, I just find the alternative better), but it's a topic I've always been in-tune to. It's noble if you ask me, and instinctively, I make a large mental note whenever it happens, when it's common amongst a group of people, etc. This shouldn't be seen as that unusual, it's just a good gesture and many would be expressing this up here if they have the incentive to.

That said, I noticed a deterence when it comes to "vegans" and "communists" (I put these in quotes to denote a broader category, not really to express a stance). Adoption is not something you really hear amongst conversations about the latter. They're sometimes stereotypically associated with orphanages but that's as far as things go. I would challenge people to find texts from such a nation that said something along the lines of "and then that child was adopted". It's like it doesn't happen. Meanwhile, we're "implied" (without it being clarified) that "vegan culture" is at odds with "adoption culture". And the people I ask of are unique in that there really is no avoidance otherwise, you could go to any group of people, nationwise/identitywise, and they'll have normal-to-idolizing opinions on the matter, with it being common to find clerical stories pertaining to it. I myself raise an eyebrow at this, especially with the way certain countries deal with the issue, through exportation and facilities and whatnot.

Not one to turn down an opportunity to ask/address everything in one fell swoop, I wanted to ask many of you due to experience, is there a reason or is it just not something that culturally comes to mind?
