I know exactly who you are. You are the lived experience of many vegans of the person that pretends to know more than us, as if every single person who went vegan didn’t have a deep personal conflict with themselves before deciding to align their morality with their lifestyle. You know very little, yet try to advocate against us on our own perceived behalf, using your own sister like some sort of “I have a (insert group here) so I definitely know things”. I don’t need to understand you because I was you. The difference is that at some point, I was willing to acknowledge I didn’t know enough about the moral vacancy of the situation and decided to learn more. The more I learned, the more I grew disgusted with our systemic murder of sentient life and how we didn’t need this destructive mechanism to survive in any way, shape, or form.

You can stop pretending that you’re trying to advocate for people in food-starved areas. Veganism, believe it or not, has never actually been about trying to force people in marginalized areas to adopt a vegan diet. Veganism is about harm reduction, full stop. The people who appeal to veganism are the same people who can make those choices in any grocery store that they go to, whether they live in a food desert or not. Personally, I don’t live in an area that’s considered vegan-friendly. However, I find myself to be okay with that purely because I know for a fact that my decisions aren’t reliant on convenience alone.

I love how micromanaging nutrition only ever comes up when veganism is mentioned. Do you think people who gorge themselves on steak and cheeseburgers are inherently healthier than someone with a vegan diet because they consume animal protein? You might be shocked to learn that the densest source of protein doesn’t come from an animal.

EDIT: You DO have local sources available to you. It’s in the same grocery store you buy slaughtered animals from.

Many sources of protein

You think vegans just eat blocks of tofu all day? My diet has never been more varied and flavorful than when I went vegan. Every single environmental impact study says animal agriculture is a bane to our continued existence, and it goes so far beyond that. Our lands and crops are swallowed up by this ever-rotating machine of suffering and murder that affects the lives of billions of land animals every year, which die terrified and in pain. No “varied protein” myth is worth so much suffering.

I doubt it. I’m having a hard time finding it, but there was a study that suggested that wealthy people kind of stopped developing mentally at whatever time they became wealthy. I think this study was focused more on children and adolescents, but I can see it applying to adults somewhat. If you think about it, wealthy people become disconnected from the rest of society and rarely suffer the consequences of their actions. I mean, maybe if he lost his fortune and was left destitute…

Women are you doing okay with the inherent exploitation of someone across the globe.
