Have been vegan for some years now. Before that I was vegetarian for years as well. I have been so far removed from meat that I never think about it.
Saw a truck full of pigs headed to the slaughterhouse today and it filled me with rage. Like I legit got triggered by the unexpected sight. Wanted to burn the truck down and save them, but that was impossible sadly. We need to do better.
I have very little hope of meaningful improvements here under capitalism, except for maybe incidental material forces that happen to drive the market to evolve. At least in the US. It’s already a [worthwhile] struggle to organize people around their own class interests let alone empathy for anyone else.
It’s astounding that there’s really no limit as to what can be normalized.
