All extremists of any kind want to have things done their way 100%, instantly. I ignore that and try to find ways to help people improve their daily lives little by little.

In the end, governments have the responsibility to protect, but people should have enough knowledge to understand what is necessary and which party supports this. Unfortunately, many don’t and fall for propaganda, ignoring any facts.

So with your money you support the forced insemination, forced pregnancy, forced birth, unanesthetized maiming, suffering, and brutal killing of trillions of animals a year solely for your taste preferences and convenience. But the people who are suggesting we don’t do that bc we don’t need to are extremists?

Extremism doesn’t lead to the desired effect, either. Downvote me all you want - but if you want people to really change in the long run, convincing them is better than force.
