That Scary Vegan Agenda
- Animals are subjects, not objects.
- Suffering should be prevented or minimised whenever possible.
- If we can avoid exploiting or killing others then we should.
- Sentient beings have the right to life and bodily autonomy.
- We don’t have the right to anyone else’s life, body or freedom.
4ins:
Every once and a while you get a glimpse of the person you could be. Grab that. Hold on to that. Work for it. Nothing is out of reach.
