    Lol my answer is directly related to my answer to last weeks questions

    I guess cutting out meat was: I was chilling with some animals and I was like, why the fuck would I eat a living creature??? That’s deranged???

    And then I got bullied IRL by vegans and realized I was turning a blind eye to violence I didn’t see directly. The cognitive dissonance lifted. Not commodifying/enslaving animals came with that. I didn’t really think about how this “food” came to be and once I let myself understand I simply could not do it anymore.

        if one can tone down their ego for a lil bit and not immediately get defensive it’s a pretty nifty tactic.

        I said bullying but it’s not really bullying. It’s getting called out on bullshit and refusing to associate with/pretend non vegans are moral people.
