Show Notes

If you are vegan, let me remind you of how amazing that is. What you have done is breaking free from 16 000 years of conditioning that makes us humans see other animals as mere objects of exploitation. And by doing so, your world has grown livelier, more exciting and kinder. Above all else, what I admire the most in my fellow vegans is that independent mindedness, that capacity to think and feel against the strong winds of normalized animal exploitation.

And this is what today's episode is about: staying faithful to that independence of mind. To avoid the trappings of mob mentality and tribalism. Even when that push to conform and abandon critical thinking comes from within the vegan community.
