    I am unfortunately not. It was more meant as a way to say that for instance criminals (yes, even the worst ones) have value. That they deserve to live and have a decent life, no matter what.

    That immigrants and asylum seekers should be treated with respect and given the help they need.

    But also that animals have value. The way a lot of animals are treated is in no way acceptable.

    I have tried being a vegetarian in the past, but have failed every time.

    Sorry to disappoint. I wish I was better.

      The ole’ carnist blind spot. It is extremely fatiguing to hold contradictory beliefs as you do, and to have to constantly edit your thoughts to protect yourself from the profound psychological effects of such contradictions.
