For more than a decade I was discouraged to ever begin thinking about going vegan, because all the vocal internet vegans convinced me that unless everything I eat, wear, own, come in contact with or thing about, never ever touched something that touched something that touched an animal, I am basically a Hitler, and just as bad as those all meat weirdos. You either holier than everyone, or you’re the worst monster possible. Vegetarians are worse than meateaters because they want the vegan superpower but don’t do the whole penance. And they all equally monsters, and if I just stop eating meat I might as well eat people alive.
Bullshit like that hypnotised me for way longer than I am happy to admit.
I’ll just stick to limiting my meat intake.
