    Thanks for posting the article, it’s very long but worth the read.

    I wish i didn’t currently live at a family members’s house, so i could actually decide what i eat and get away from these disgusting practices.

    For others, please refrain from arguing about this like this is some spccer match, i don’t like what I’m seeing from the other comments, this should be taken seriously.

    The meat industrial requires inhumanity to prosper, just like any other corporation, bit this one deals with animals for said animals’ entire lives, this is systemized misery.

    If any vegan is reading this, i might do a post requesting this later, but any resources for reading more or for moving to a more sustainable and less cruel way of living would be helpful.

      It sorta sounds like a copout but being vegan on a day to day basis means checking what is in every little thing you eat or drink, I mean literally checking labels and searching ingredients. And then you have to apply this thought process to every other area animals are used:

      -Bath supplies -cleaning supplies -clothing/shoes -transportation …and so on.

      Best advice is to just pick whichever area you feel most knowledgeable or capable in, and become “vegan” in that category.

      I’m not even entirely vegan, although its mainly because I’m still learning a lot about all the different ways animals come into our lives without realizing it.

      P.s. almost forgot the parts vegans split on in some occasions, like with sugars or honey.

        What’s the deal with sugars?

        I knew on some level that being vegan would require micro-management of my life and routine. I guess what I’m really asking is, besides doing my best to consume less (meats and in general), what are the bigger steps an individual could take to avoid contributing to those industries?
