The violently cruel reality of meat & dairy is out of sight . . .
Call me an optimist with too much faith in humanity, but I believe that If people actually chose to look at this reality many, possibly most would choose not to pay for it.

It’s the deliberate & wilful refusal of some to educate themselves that gets me;
“I can’t watch that, it’s too upsetting”
As if you have a right to be protected from the harm you pay for. You don’t. You are culpable- no demand, no supply. You’re unnecessary consumer choices cause this abuse, therefore you are by default an abuser.
When looked at objectively, it’s cowardly behaviour that belies a level of grossly arrogant self-entitlement. - as if your desire not to experience uncomfortable emotions should be prioritised over the actual pain, distress, suffering & murder of a real living animal.
“My avoidance of distress is the important thing here” No it’s not, it’s really not.
Please consider this:
Do you want needless violence carried out in your name?
Do you want to be paying for unnecessary violent abuse of beautiful fellow animal citizens?
You don’t have to.

Vegan versus ‘Normal’ A Thread
Contemporarily, vegans in Western societies are often seen as fair game for criticism and verbal abuse. I’d argue that this phenomenon in part relies upon the notion that being vegan is not ‘normal’, and rides on the premise that if most people do
something, then that’s eternally the correct way to continue. But, how then do we believe that humans have made any progress in social/ethical justice? By blinkeredly repeating everything unquestioningly? Are we arguing that obediently conforming without exercising any cognitive
critical analysis is somehow virtuous? I’d argue the opposite, it’s cowardly & reprehensible.
Developmental psychologist Robert Kegan argues that society is quick to regard as ‘right’ or ‘true’ that which is merely familiar, and to dismiss anything unusual as ‘bad’ or ‘wrong’,
