Wonderfully written and spot on. I wish more people would acknowledge this.
âNo one wants to participate in animal activism because animal activism sucks. If I wanted to design the least rewarding experience possible, animal activism wouldnât be far off from the result.â
I want veganism to seem like a worthwhile, rewarding project. I want people to be jealous of what a positive community vegans are. As you point out, with great clarity, most vegan activism feels from the inside and appears from the outside to be isolating and neurotic. Bad activism can do more harm than good.
Brilliant piece. And thanks for introducing me to the term âcupcake vegan,â a badge I didnât know I could wear.
