Myth # 03 : " Stop pushing your beliefs on me ."

My Friends , we vegans are not the ones spending billions of dollars on advertisements & commercials that incessantly shove lies into your faces every day – that is the meat & milk industry that is doing so … And we vegans are not the ones trying to manipulate you into filling your bodies with the dead carcasses and carcinogenic secretions of imprisoned animals – that is the meat & milk industry that is doing so … And we vegans are not the ones trying to get you to continue ignoring your conscience by meekly looking away from the horrific cruelties being inflicted upon innocent beings by the millions every day – that is the meat & milk industry that is doing so … And we vegans are not the ones arbitrarily deciding that the immense suffering of farmed animals is not as important as your own personal pleasure – that is you who is doing so .
Indeed , the truth of the matter is that vegans are not pushing their beliefs on you at all … After all , that farmed animals are confined and abused is not a belief – it is a fact . After all , that it is completely unnecessary for you to eat animal products to live a longer & healthier life is not a belief – it is a fact . And after all , that you paying for animal products directly prolongs the massive suffering & insane injustice of the meat & dairy industry is not a belief either – it is a fact as well .
In conclusion , we vegans are not telling you what to eat ; we are only apprising you of what you are already eating … We are not telling you what to support ; we are merely informing you what you are already supporting … We are not telling you what to do ; we are simply reminding you of what you are already doing .
As such , if you are the ones telling vegans to stop pushing their beliefs on you , it seems to me that you are simply confused as to who is really pushing whom .
Current status of this Myth : Disqualified Justification it provides for eating animals : NONE
