Doing What's Right: The Moral Rebellion of Veganism
This meme captures a stark moral truth: carnism is compliance, while veganism is courage. In a world where eating animals is normalized from birth, choosing to live vegan is not a trend but a deliberate act of ethical defiance. Carnism asks nothing of us but blind obedience. It is the default, the tradition passed down unquestioned. But tradition is no excuse for injustice.
The cages in the image are real. Billions of animals live and die in them, unseen and unconsidered, simply because we are told it’s acceptable. Their suffering is hidden behind slogans like “humane meat” and “free-range,” which comfort consumers without changing the brutal reality for the animals.
Veganism, on the other hand, is not about being told what to do. It’s about waking up. It’s about asking the hard questions and daring to answer them with compassion rather than convenience. It’s a rejection of the passive role society offers us and a bold embrace of personal responsibility.
Doing what’s right, no matter what we’re told, is the essence of moral progress. Every major movement for justice has followed this path. Veganism is simply the next step forward—one that challenges power, tradition, and cruelty in one brave choice: to stop hurting when we can simply stop.
The conclusion of your call for justice and moral responsibility via a transition from a death and destruction diet to a Vegan one I found truly compelling:
