For the vast majority of my life, I regularly paid mega corporations in a corrupt and evil industry to rape females with machines to impregnate them, then separate the children from their mothers shortly after birth so that I could drink the mammary secretions meant for those children (who were then murdered if they were male, or raised in deplorable conditions to become part of the process themselves if they were female).
So did I, then I decided to stop eating corpses and eat even more of these secretions. One chapter into Jesus Ed's book and I don't think I'm ever going back to this lifestyle.
People think I'm crazy and extreme for not participating but I enjoy my "frozen dessert" and "nut/seed drink" without feeling like having blood on my hands.
Same here, and I’d rather be down-voted into oblivion than pretend my past actions weren’t “questionable”. I’d love to say I’m a proud vegan, but truthfully, I’m not proud of being vegan; I’m ashamed and regretful of how long it took me to become one.
