I appreciate that not everyone can do physically demanding (or otherwise risky) activism and I didn't mean to imply that you were a liberal but I fear that the human-centric approach has a tendancy to attract liberals because it is quite compatible with a reformist attitude - if all you have to do is make different consumer choices then you don't need to endorse more extreme antispeciesist action. But when we bake the perspective of the victim into the message from the start there is no way to twist it or coopt it because the focus is always on the immediate harm and how those systems can be dismantled rather than how those systems profit or disadvantage humans.

Let's assume all billionaires disappear right now.
What do you think would get better?
I'll tell you. Nothing would.
Billions of humans on this planet abuse trillions if not quadrillions (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) of non-human animals yearly needlessly. You think the problem are billionaires? Zoom out. Humans are the problem. Humans are the vermin.
Humans love to blame others to avoid responsibility. #Vegan #Veganism #Speciesism #Antispeciesism #Antispeciesist #BeVegan #GoVegan #Billionaire #Billionaires #Profit #Money #Wealth #Violence #Abuse #Excuse #Excuses :vegan:

There is no radically transforming society without individuals radically transforming themselves. And while it's the simplest step to take, the biggest attitude shift is respecting the rights of non-human animals. Not you offering help, being jolly during difficult times, nothing like that. Just basic respect.
And I would claim that believing society can be radically transformed is naive, just stop abusing beings for their sake. #Vegan #Veganism #Speciesism #Antispeciesism #Society #Antinatalism #BeVegan #GoVegan :vegan:

"We force animals to adapt to the constraints of farming modelled on the mass production of manufactured goods, whereas farming should respect the ethological needs of animals. This is a transgression because we grant ourselves an absolute right that we do not have. This violence towards animals is a condemnation of us. Yet our relationship with animals could be an opportunity to think about a way of inhabiting the Earth that makes coexistence with other species possible. This requires new foundations for ethics and politics."

Bull fighting is disgusting heartless violence where a bull is physically tortured until they fight back and are killed for sport

Rodeos are disgusting heartless violence where a bull is physically tortured until they fight back and are ridden for sport

Culture never justifies abuse

You are responsible for being better than the culture that you were raised in

Feeling very positive and heartened to see the great #animalrights, #animalliberation and #vegan communities on here!

I'm told there are now also a few #veganism and #animalrights instances popping up? Please send any new ones you learn of!

Thank you so much to everyone working on their own little piece of this #antispeciesism puzzle. We're going for full #nonhumanrights #personhood and #equality

#Animaljustice is an issue that goes hand in hand with #climatejustice. Not just for humans, but for nonhumans too. Animals have even more individualized #climates than humans, and our #anthropocene activities have an even greater impact on them.

Please boost/ give us a follow!
We're here to build a community on a higher, more inclusive level - but stronger and more integrated, intentional in purpose, too.
