It’s true. Because I decided to reduce my own personal damaging to other animals (to a minimum hence the definition of ) my family and friends (most of them) hurt me tremendously but mostly unintentionally.

It’s called but I would never ever go back to .

As a #vegan what aspects of your day to day life are impacted by #vystopia ?

It’s been kinda kicking my ass lately and I’m curious to see who else struggles with it and how, vaguely. Feel free to elaborate!

I'm well aware of how unpopular collapse discourse is, and it is tied to how humans treat other animals too. You won't find me at parties. I don't even bother with food if I go to social events, since I'm always masking. Can't eat with a mask.

Care is political, in antithesis with the opposite, which is also political: the absence of care.

If you're trying to find arguments for surrendering to the low-effort "normality" of Business As Usual, you probably will. The whole premise of the system and its culture is the fostering of sociopaths, rat racers who want to compete (to the death) with others, to win some promised Dream of being rich and starting some kind of dynasty thing, a type of family corporatism, each imagining that they'll become some aristocracy.

Like with veganism, the core arguments are ethical and moral. If you're not relying on that, you will eventually fall to some type of hedonism or fantasies.

It doesn't have to always be this difficult, but is this way now.

Here, some reading/lectures. They pair well even if they don't know it:
