Being A Vegan Doesn’t Make You A Better Person.

Just the act of not eating meat doesn’t make a person <better>. Just the act of not participating in systematic  and massive animal cruelty doesn’t <enlighten> a person.

So when a meat eater scoffs at us and says <so you think you are better  because you don’t eat meat, HUH?> we can answer with a <no, we are not <better>>

But the opposite is even more true. Eating meat while aware of the cruelty behind it DOES damage your spirit, soul, or whatever you want to call it. Eating meat and actively blocking your mind for the truth that meat means extreme cruelty, DOES lower your mind. Taking part and being responsible for systematic and massive cruelty to living beings that don’t have a voice in our society and are dependent on us, is a huge black mark on your spirit, soul, humanity, or whatever you want to call it.

To continue our entertaining conversation with the meat eater, we can continue with an <even though I am not <better> because I am a vegan, YOU are certainly much worse as a human for eating meat knowing the cruelty it causes yet ignoring it and even mocking people who DO stop eating meat.>

BEING a vegan might not make you a better human, but BECOMING a vegan certainly does. When we did realize how cruel the animals are treated for our meat, and even our eggs and milk, we were disgusted by so much extreme and unjust cruelty to defenseless animals. We actively did change ourselves, we ditched the meat, the cheese, the eggs, the milk, and all without someone patting us on the back, on the contrary, we did it against the grain, at highest people around us tolerated it, at worse people turned verbally aggressive towards us.

We did BECOME vegans because we followed <the higher element> in us, we did choose for compassion, social justice, ethics, a humane society. We opened our mind and our heart instead of closing them.
It must sound very arrogant for meat eaters, but the activity of BECOMING a vegan , that DID make us a better human being. J
