Any Serious Social, Political, And Economic Change

I Maintain That We Ought To Abolish The Institution And Stop Causing Or Facilitating The Existence Of More 'companion' Animals.

They Are Nonhuman Persons. They Are Not Food. If Animals Matter Morally At All, There Is One And Only One Rational Response: Go Vegan. Everything Else Is Just Participation In Animal Exploitation.

Veganism Is About Nonviolence. It Is About Not Engaging In Harm To Other Sentient Beings; To Oneself; And To The Environment Upon Which All Beings Depend For Life. In My View, The Animal Rights Movement Is, At Its Core, A Movement About Ending Violence To All Sentient Beings. It Is A Movement That Seeks Fundamental Justice For All. It Is An Emerging Peace Movement That Does Not Stop At The Arbitrary Line That Separates Humans From Nonhumans.

Veganism Is The Application Of The Principle Of Abolition In Your Own Life; It Represents Your Recognition That Animals Are Not Things. Veganism Is The Recognition Of The Moral Personhood Of Nonhuman Animals.

Veganism Must Be The Baseline If We Are To Have Any Hope Of Shifting The Paradigm Away From Animals As Things And Toward Animals As Nonhuman Persons.
