All violence, all injustice, all oppression is interlinked. How we treat nonhuman animals sets the lower boundary for how we treat each other. The more cruelly we treat non-humans, the more terrible a weapon dehumanization is.

Instinctual abhorrence of the heinous violence that’s inflicted upon other sentient animals is an indicator of a morally healthy mind. To be complicit & indifferent is not a product of "human nature”, but a product of human conditioning.

You’re either vegan or you subscribe to the odious, deeply indoctrinated notion that social and material self-interest are more important than basic morality or another’s right to sole sovereignty over their body and life.

To describe any form of killing a sentient individual who does not want to die as “humane” reveals the level of flagrant dishonesty and transparent semantic trickery society must draw upon to excuse its needless violence.

Humane education programs need to be expanded globally and it needs to be included in all grades, with age appropriate content for each grade. Children are kind to animals by default, and that kindness needs to be nurtured. That will make for a kinder world, as their compassion won’t stop at animals
When we excuse & ignore cruelty, we become the reason it is normalised. When we condition our children to suppress their innate empathy & ignore their sense of justice & participate in this tyranny, we force them to become inheritors of our base moral corruption.

If to be normal is to participate in eternal violence towards those who just happen to have not been born human, which is to abandon ethics & morality itself, which is to abandon our humanity, then there exists an urgent moral imperative to create a new normal.

Speciesism is the set of ideas that excuse discriminating against nonhuman animals solely because they aren’t human & hence inferior & undeserving of moral consideration. Ethics & science have extensively shown there’s no objective grounding for such a stance.
