Crime Scene series of Vegan demos are taking up London by storm these days with new victim animals every month to awaken the public. On the floor of the busy street is depicted a Crime Scene with a victim of animal exploitation who appears to be a human being drawing people in who then realise it is a depiction of a non human animal.

If these crimes such as exploitation, enslavement, reproductive abuse or rape, mutilation, kidnapping of babies, murder of babies and parents, were to happen to human beings, the police, media and governments will be keen to prosecute criminals and all humans would obviously agree to ban these crimes permanently. Yet, when it comes to non human animal victims the same public pays for these crimes and demands it unnecessarily. Why? Because they know that as a human being they will never be a victim of these crimes that are legalised and allowed every day and every minute to be perpetrated upon non human animals.
This abject lack of empathy for others just because you are not the victim and are not likely to be made one, is a sign of massive selfish behaviour or human narcissism and psychopathy. In narcissistic and psychopathic abuse the perpetrator is not concerned of the feelings of others and the actual impact they had on others, but only on denial and refusal to accept their faults or change their behaviour by arguing against the same and continuing the same behaviours rigidly year after year.
The governments and consumers around the world are deluded to think that humans are superior to animals as we are also an animal and one of them. Also we do not need any animal product or service including Animal Testing. Did you know that the human body is not designed to digest animal products at all? Or that as many as 95 percent of non human animal tested drugs fail when tested on human subjects?
The crowd gets pulled in to the scene at leading tourism spots and city centre locations with high footfalls, making people stop, look and listen. At this point we perform outreach with the help of activists who are experts in Veganism and are able to convince individuals stopping by and asking questions. Well made leaflets are handed out to maximum members of public with details on Veganism and why/ how to go vegan.

Veganism by definition is about avoiding consumption of products or services or engaging in activities that hurt, harm or exploit animals of non human species. It is one of our moral baselines although not the only one as I advocate (as a Wiccan educator) being against all abuse, discrimination and exploitation against human or non human species. It is additionally great if you could also find some time for activism and there can be many good types or forms of activism.
Types of Activism: Writing, Videos, Petitions, Fundraisers, Public Speaking, Education, Debates, Talks, Conversations, TV Outreach, Leafletting, Music, Demonstrations, Marches, Protests, Vigils, Street actions, Sit-ins, Comedy, Creative Artivism, Chalking, Stickering, Postering, Road signs, Vehicle signs, Gatherings, Social Media Posts, Press and TV content, Rescuing, Political Lobbying, Letters, Advertising Campaigns, Arrestible Actions such as Aggravated Tresspass and Blockades
I started with rescuing strays and creating small fundraisers or campaigns as a teenager, followed by writing columns in press and featuring in broadcast media to educate about nature, feminism and Wiccan beliefs when I grew up. I used to speak as a Wiccan educator at large events when invited to educational institutions or in seminars, as well as held my own gatherings and workshops too and I am aware that these help educate people and build communities. After going Vegan started blogging with well written and researched articles in detail since 2014 as well as followed it by street activism since 2019 and conversations, and then going on to authoring books in 2020 to raise awareness. I have worked with several activism teams as well as tried my hand at rescuing animals from farms recently. If I organise events I try to create those that attract more footballs to draw people into conversations easily on streets such as the Crime Scene demos at London Leicester square that were very effective in out reaching more people due to their curiosity value as conversations didn’t stop at the scene, one after another with some excellent activists being outreachers around the crime scene.
Examples of a Few Great Activists: When one evaluates effecive activism a few names stand out such as Joey Carbstrong, Earthling Ed and Tash Peterson for example who are brilliant and have motivated a number of people, including myself and several other activists that I have met on streets in getting out there and talking or taking a stand against animal exploitation and abuse. These activists have focused on being featured in media as well as been powerful in social media which in my opinion helps a lot more than otherwise. Because my background is press and media and I know first hand how powerful they could be. If you can become a major influencer such as these people have as activists it would be great for the cause.
Positive Benefits of Activism:
1. Activism is fun and also helps you meet lovely people and make new friends over time with like minded intelligent souls.
2. It also adds more experience into your career and helps you develop communication skills, confidence and good behaviour standards as well as possibly could get added to your CV if you achieved some goals.
3. It is great for your mental health and emotional wellbeing as it helps you feel that you achieved more than simply wasting time and money on socially unproductive activities or in toxic relationships. Of course you need to protect yourself from negative people, time drainers or rude people everywhere even in Vegan teams.
4. In terms of social media it definitely helps you organize your thoughts and adds a new dimension to your profile and increase your reach as well as goodwill.
5. For celebrities: As a Public Relations expert and a former owner of a PR agency in Mumbai where I lived before UK, I always advised my business and celebrity clients to focus on charitable work and to advocate positive things in media as opposed to senseless gimmicks because media and press are massive change agents in society and opinion influencers often have a bigger chance at being heard and emulated by public and can use their power for good.
Risky actions: Some activism groups focus on getting arrested and going to court or jails as a sign of self sacrifice or drawing attention to the cause, for example Animal Rebellion (now Animal Rising). However these can come at a cost both economically as well as time wise and impact future career as well as family commitments. These actions are for those who can afford to take such risk in their career or personal life and not always my favourite as a single mum who cares for my son and two pets at home. If you do take risky actions the benefits to society must outweigh the costs or risks in an impactful way.
Rescuing Farm Animals: A few groups focus on rescuing a few animals from farms by taking them away by stealth and this too can be risky of they are caught. In my opinion rescuing animals from farms selectively (as you can only run away with a few at a time) creates an illusion of liberation overall but might not actually impact consumer demand unless you film it and make a shift in consumer awareness or lobby actively in legal or judicial courts. If you rescue 20 animals with the consumers still demanding the same number of items at the till, 20 more will be bred and sold if not from that farm then another farm. True animal liberation is about creating a behaviour and attitude shift amongst public instead of doing something that noone will ever know about in secret. This is because demand creates supply and not the other way round.
Difficulties in Activism: I am aware that some Vegan activists put a lot of pressure on Vegans to get active and use social media as well as join activism groups which is great if they have the time or resources to do this as a hobby or passion. Not everyone is capable or skilled in activism or expected to do it if in personal crisis, debt, caught in severe mental, financial or physical health problems or needing support themselves and one needs to have some empathy towards every person’s own needs.
Kindly be aware that vegans as well as activists are often busy both in their own respectable careers as well as being parents, looking after their wellbeing, after pets, and doing other important work, hobbies, educational activities and online activism and are often involved in several groups and activism simultaneously. It is often not practical or healthy to expect activists to be there for each and everything or work at peak performance levels as this will cause burnout.
I prefer and would advise you focus on activism that is self paced, sensible, sustainable, less economically draining, less risky, impactful in a positive way by creating awareness, allowing volunteers to be flexible in attending when they can and activism that is fun too. Awareness and education go a long way in improving our society and inspiring positive energy shift towards Ascension.

At a recent vegan activism event at London’s Trafalgar square, an anti vegan troll wanted to kill me as he somehow sniffed out that I am a witch (a reputed Indian Wiccan that I have been known to be for years – video embedded below the article). He was of course angry as he was religiously intolerant as well as anti-feminist, apart from anti-animal rights. If you are a feminist and believe in gender and LGBTQ equality, you must be Vegan. Want to know why?
Some people think that not eating meat on some days or most days, or even being a vegetarian is a great thing to do for their health, for the planet, or for animals. The association they have with graphic violence or murder ends at ‘meat’ of animals. But are they right? What about the other animal products they consume, such as unfertilized eggs and dairy milk items?
Here are some reasons why not to be vegetarian, and to be strictly vegan instead.
Breeding animals or farming them is essentially the rape of females and sexual abuse of males to collect sperms and inseminate the females artificially. These animals never had the freedom to find a mate they liked, or any sexual pleasure ever throughout their life. They are non consenting sexual and reproductive slaves whose bodies are continually manipulated and abused whenever the farmer wants to use them. This is a gigantic evil in itself.
Unfertilised eggs are still a product of abuse. The farmers want more and more eggs and for them they need more female hens. Therefore they still need to fertilize a large number of eggs to grow their business and continue earning profits by satisfying consumer demand. Therefore male baby chicks are useless to them once born as they segregate male and female chicks and kill the males usually on the first day of their birth, as soon as they hatch from their shells looking for their mother. The method of killing is pure torture, usually live maceration which is similar to being put in a blender, only a hundred times worse and more painful to the little ones, and sometimes gas chambering that is prolonged suffering. They could even be suffocated to death in garbage bags. Many a times macerated chicks are turned into filthy chicken nuggets or dirty pet food.
Free range is horror. Not only are hens forced to suffer in stinking and filthy sheds or barns in free range industry if not caged, the baby chicks are also killed on the day of birth if male. Similarly baby male calves are also shot in the head or slayed to produce veal as male cows are useless to the dairy industry and farmers want to cut costs and focus on the females, in order to reproductively exploit them as sexual slaves. Mothers are always grieving the loss of male babies and the babies are crying for mums and separated that adds to psychological torture and is a huge sin.
Egg laying hens and dairy cows are genetically manipulated with breeding to produce too many eggs and too much milk that leaves their body sore and emaciated. Hens as jungle fowls in the wild produce no more than one egg a month as it is similar to human females having periods on a monthly basis. These eggs consume the energy of the bodies of the females and suck out their nutrition as hens lay more than 300 eggs instead of 12 a year. This is pure cruelty. Similarly cows were originally wild aurochs in nature and now extinct and domesticated into the current version. They are bred to produce excessive milk and their udders are swollen and infected and often they collapse of their weight and become lame. They also have mastitis, a painful breast condition, as they are unable to feed their babies who are kept far away on formula.
All animals that are farmed end up in slaughterhouses and that too after a highly reduced lifespan.
Eggs and dairy items contain toxic germs. Eggs are anally secreted and super filthy, and so is dairy. You would not dream of living in those filthy farms with all the faeces, wounds, and urine around that these animals spend their short lives in.
Eggs and dairy contain cholesterol that clogs your arteries and reduces the longevity of your heart and also blocks your brain blood supply, causing dullness and lack of energy. Vegan food has zero cholesterol and you have never felt better than being vegan.
Eggs, dairy, meat, have antibiotics that cause you even more illnesses and reduce your immunity and ability to get helped by antibiotics due to antibiotic resistance.
Animal products are carncinogenic or cancer causing, including breast cancer, ovarian cancer, and bowel cancer, among others being linked to eggs and dairy. By being vegan you are saving the lives of your children and other family members. Mental health problems such as depression, autism, schizophrenia, Parkinson’s disorder, and Alzheimer’s disease are also linked with dairy consumption and that of other animal products. More in my previous articles with research data, linked here.
Humans do not need to have eggs or dairy milk as we are technically primates who are frugivore apes in the animal kingdom as per our true nature and need dietary fibre which is absent in animal products causing so many illnesses to us. Anything and everything we need can be vegan including eggs and milk substitutes, leather, fur, and all our products and services. Try tofu scramble, or vegan egg replacers in the supermarket, and a variety of plant milks and plant based dairy desserts cheeses, tofu paneers, and ice-creams to go plant based completely and be vegan by boycotting all products of animal exploitation.
By going vegan, you will help in saving the environment by causing less deforestation and prevent the methane, nitrous oxide and CO2 produced by the animals who are bred to the tune of over 80 billion per annum for animal farming by food industry alone, consuming most of the crops on earth, and taking away our land thereby impoverishing humans, taking away all the real estate, causing inflation, taking away al our taxes for their enormous subsidies, and making the economy collapse under their weight.
Listen to the powerful voices in this video below for more clarity and watch the clips included within for evidence on live chick maceration. Would you press the button and put baby chicks in the blender yourself? Then please boycott these horrifically graphic slaughterhouses and be a Vegan, and not just vegetarian.
As a vegan, you are important as a spokesperson for poor victim animals. You need to be respected and supported for helping out in this HUGE charitable cause for justice and equality. And if you are having beautiful conversations with non vegans and giving them invaluable knowledge and guidance, they need to at least respect you for that, if not pay you as an expert.
Non vegans treat us badly enough. On top of that, some Vegans are unclear themselves and take things lightly at times. This is because fundamentals are not clear enough within the vegan community. I am an expert and a book author, and I can help clarify things.
Please 🙏 watch the below video and comment to add your opinions.
The following are some of the illusions they expertly project and convince us of:
1: ***They deserve non judgemental listening to… as if they are victims who are paying for a counselling session designed to heal them.***
Remember, they are guilty, and they need to have someone tell them that. Would you not judge a terrorist, a serial killer, a rapist, a paedophile? These deserve jail as per a court judgement.
So why be a speciesist and accept huge crimes against animals of other species?
If you claim to be a vegan and preach non judgemental attitudes towards huge crimes perpetrated against animals of other species, shame on you. Blame and shame are healthy for the sake of insight and self reflection. They help us awaken.
2: ***Just because you were not born a vegan and were guilty in your past, you must also let them go lightly and not feel judged.***
Well, you have changed. You judged yourself, found yourself guilty, and took steps to stop being a perpetrator yourself. Now it is their turn.
3: ***They need their own time to come to a decision on whether to go vegan or not.***
If you know you can be a normal person right now and not hurt someone without any issues, why would you keep harming others? And is abusing others up to your personal (rude) choices and decisions? You are being speciesistic.
4. ***They need to feel respected as equals, not discriminated against and included in your social life, personal life, jobs, and communities.***
Do you make it a point to include paedophile, racists, and serial killers in your relationship, daily life and socials, in bed with you, in your offices and teams?
If yes, you need to get your head checked up now. (I KNOW SOME PEOPLE DO AS THEY HAVE LESS SELF RESPECT)
If non vegans want to be included, there is a simple and immediate way – just go vegan. Easy peasy. It’s no rocket science.
Non vegans know how to be vegan in this age of Internet and supermarkets. They are draining us out, wasting our time, and hurting their victims while also abusing us. Siding with them makes you an enabler of speciesism. Just because you are not the victim, and your head was not chopped off, you find it easy to judge vegans as judgemental if they say that it is entirely wrong and unjustified? Non vegans enjoy this conflict between vegans.
In outreach, their conversations with us non vegans seem largely abusive, intimidating, and superficial. They behave entitled and cocky, talk us down, implicate us, and walk away feeling like they stuck to their guns and won their right to hurt, kill, and cause mayhem for selfish enjoyment of taste or vanity.
Worse still some ‘Vegans’ are appearing in front of other Vegans and being applauded for stating we should not ‘judge’ Non Vegans unless we were vegan since birth…as we all are not born vegans (therefore inferior). Well, so what if someone is born a vegan, and so what if they went vegan just 2 days ago? If they understand how to change themselves now, that is all that matters.
Veganism is not a toxic competition of who was vegan for a longer time. It is about the rights of victims who are animals of other species. Also enough of misjudging Vegans as militant, or superior, or preachy, or judgemental. Non judgementality does not mean condoning violence or discrimination. Also, if you are racist, misogynist, genderistic, heterosexist, ageist, ableist, yourself, or in any way not anti-discrimination yourself, being ‘just vegan’ is not enough. All evil is equally wrong.
Veganism is also not the same as eating plants, mainly for health and climate change. It is a moral stand for animal rights. Other ancillary issues add to your outreach but are not the core of veganism. If you are not vegan but are plant based and a Speciesistic person at heart, please don’t call yourself a vegan. Plain and simple.
“Feminists don’t abuse female animals for dairy and other animal products,” said Neo 10Y on the microphone at a new demo by Radically Kind and Speciesism.wtf outside Tate Modern, London, on Saturday the 21 October.
Five women activists stood almost butt naked in the cold rain with their teeth chattering and bodies shivering. They were playing the role of victim mothers, humans being enslaved for milk, similar to Dairy cows, but without the killing. On their breasts were attached funnels and tubes while they held signs against Dairy. Other activists were busy talking to the public and educating them, and some were offering samples of ‘human breast milk’, (actually Oat milk) in order to discuss the ethics of using human females vis-à-vis dairy cows who are exploited against their will, forcibly impregnated using rape to bear babies and lactate, and milked several times a day while their babies are taken away or even killed soon after birth if male as male babies cannot produce milk.
Protest by Radically Kind Group outside Tate London on 21 Oct 2023
The group called Radically Kind has done daring moves in lingerie and underwear previously starting this year with ‘Eating Animals Isn’t Sexy’ when they were suddenly ousted by security outside a public venue at London Bridge. The speeches by the activists at the venue were all against abuse, harm, and exploitation as a social cause and to spread more kindness and compassion, with the theme that it is not an attractive trait to abuse others.

The group has created a sudden sensation within London already. Claudia Di, the group’s lead organiser, was recently featured in New York Times as the activist who broke into the ramp of London Fashion Week on behalf of PeTA and has a lot more planned ahead for her group likewise.
Claudia infiltrated the runway at London Fashion Week for PeTA, hoping to give hi-fashion models and brands such as Hermes, that were promoting leather and exotic skins, ‘a run for their money’.
Another powerful demo, called ‘Non Protein Deficient Vegan Outbreak’, by Radically Kind, held this summer, had challenged the notion that humans need protein from animals, at Picaddilly Circus, London. The video below had Vegan Child Shaurya express himself along with other Vegan activists to speak against animal exploitation and harm to the victims.

What do you think are the most irrational and strangest things Non Vegans believe in?
I could think of so many…
1. They all permanently live on a desert island with that one last animal who hasn’t eaten for months.
2. Animal meat and dairy are supreme health foods. Plant based diet is the real cause of cancers and heart disease.
3. Vegans are all dying of B12 and protein deficiencies and are therefore experiencing negative growth in population stats per annum as shown by their rising numbers (in hospitals and morgues).
4. Non vegans would happily volunteer to be killed humanely in slaughterhouses for feeding the world, as we can not live without animal products.
5. Sheep never existed in the wild without humans to give them a haircut and actually beg for farmers.
6. Cows are our mums, and we never grew up as babies. The best way to say happy mothers Day every single day is to impregnate our mums and take away the baby and then kill them when done with milk.
7. What better way to love animals than to kill them young, when they are babies and children, after giving them your imaginary ‘good life’!!
8. Animals look like sausages and meatballs, but vegetables cry if you dice them, mince them, or shape them similarly.
9. Coconut milk and coconut cream are infringement of Dairy industry copyrights and should be banned.
10. If a mysterious voice of an unknown person says they are God and is quoted in books commanding someone to kill your child or animals, you simply have to worship them.
11. Killing someone innocent and pure takes away your sins annually. So does pouring tonnes of milk down the drain over idols. Happy festivals!
12. If rape, domestic violence, FGM, and child abuse have been prevalent for so many centuries, then why not keep killing animals too?
13. The circle of life is completed by taking life away against someone’s will and being thankful for every opportunity to do so.
14. You can kill your best friend just because plants feel pain, too.
15. Only humans can be rape victims. Animals just roam around and mate for fun and have babies constantly in factory farms.
16. Animal farming saves the planet by destroying 1 football field sized forest per second for growing 10 times more GMO and Monsanto crops, and killing multiple wildlife and insects per second in order to feed 80-150 billion land animals killed per annum bred just for animal products. Hope you got the maths right this time!
17. Evil vegans own huge avocado plantations and kill millions of bees for producing almond oil deliberately for non vegans to consume.
18. GMO soya used by dairy and meat industry is not a problem, but the sole <5 per cent used to manufacture organic tofu clearly is.
19. All mums need to spend our pregnancies and breastfeed babies in our own filth in tiny farrowing crates akin to pig farms, lest we should roll over and kill our babies.
20. All non vegans buy only locally ‘euthanized’ animal products ‘given’ by happy animals who produce meat, eggs, dairy, wool, fur, etc. in huge ‘uncle’s farms’ all over earth.
21. Animal farming and slaughterhouse footage videos are a massive conspiracy theory campaign by a new world agenda, publicised by highly paid vegan activists standing with TV all day long to pounce upon gullible customers.
22. Humans are the best and the most intelligent of all species and are all loved by God in order to be the only ones to have any rights to live. Rest all are objects for fun and entertainment.
23. Humans are carnivorous lions 🦁 and omnivorous wolves in sheep’s clothing with huge canine teeth and short intestines.. and have nothing to do with violent cannibalistic apes.
24. Everyone goes to a heaven of endless supply of dairy milk and honey, except Vegans, who go to hell for hurting everyone’s sentiments by telling the truth.
25. We all are not animals. Only ‘animals’ are animals. We are superior. Except for vegans who have a superiority complex because they think we are all equal to animals.
26. The best way to treat non vegans is to respect their rights to kill and abuse their victims on a daily basis and let them live and let die.
27. If they want to go vegan, they will do so after a million years if you remain calm and be best friends with them forever.
28. If we evolved from monkeys, then how come monkeys still exist? Unicellular organisms and planktons should be extinct if life evolved from them.
29. Everything that happens in nature is a good thing, except doing what’s human nature and not killing someone unnecessarily, which is crazy right?
30. If law or society or God allows you to do it, then you just have to do it. Why create any social change when you can enjoy sleeping in the dark ages forever?
Billions of people living out their lives unperturbed. But why?
1. They sincerely believe we are Omnivores because this is what they learnt in schools – a lie, instead of the truth that we are biological frugivores. We are in no way evolved from lions, tigers, wolves or dogs. We are from apes and from ape-men who were primarily frugivore and then somewhere lost their fundamental nature due to ignorance. Our teeth, digestive system and instincts are nowhere predatory or top of the food chain.
2. They have been brainwashed that eating animals, eggs, honey and dairy are very crucial for the body, for growth of children, for adults to be strong with muscles, bones, and so on. Heme-iron is ok, vitamin D sources are eggs or oily fish, Omega 3 is in cod liver, and B12 is in beef and other such myths are even now being spread by government agencies or medical systems, NHS, British conventional medicine, and all over the internet. This is a huge mistake since the beginning because we know that all nutrients are easy to obtain from plants directly, after all we can clearly see elephants being so strong eating only plants. Even originally plant based cultures of non violence and meditation are lured into non vegetarianism for thinking that we need to eat animals or at least have a plethora of dairy products to make up for the ‘lost nutrients’. There are no missing nutrients in plant based diets, confirmed by the very same British system of Nutrition experts.
3. They truly believe that humans are generally good, therefore governments decide what is best for us, everyone is here to be kind, no animal is being hurt without reason or abused in most places. They truly trust the system and society with an open and innocent heart. So naturally ‘slaughter’ is a necessary evil but done with a kind heart to stun animal and make them completely unconscious so that they feel nothing. Yet, stunning itself is injurious and painful both physically and emotionally, leave alone murder.
5. A big reason. Role models. They believe their parents were good people who loved them and if they were not vegan, and still good people, why not themselves? These parents were also misguided by their education system and family to be non vegans and this chain has continued on like a bug in the program of the Matrix that keeps travelling from host to host. Most people being trapped in a cycle of ignorance and deep sleep in the Matrix.
6. Social celebrities, businesspersons, successful gurus, fashion queens, all are usually non vegan and if vegan they are not famous because they are vegan, they just also happen to be vegan in a few cases or go back and forth on it. So they base their lifestyle in imitation of their favourite stars from media, glamour, culture, and sports where veganism is marginalised. Vegan leaders and activists are very few and not in any way mainstream as compared to the others.
7. Their friends are not vegan and they love hanging out with them and get so much love and affection by them, or by significant others who love them regardless of their diet and lifestyle choices and ethics towards ‘animals’. When all your social needs are met, you are rewarded, appreciated, loved, going out on dates and enjoying life with mates and friends, why would you care about a thing. People become thoughtless, carefree, and mindless for most of their life, as hedonism is the norm. ‘Each one for their own’, they say and look away.
8. They think we are humans, a social animal, but other animals are still called ‘ANIMALS’ a separate category. Animal Rights therefore remain distinct from Human Rights. This is a very big flaw even in the vegan and animal rights movements. ‘Animal Lover’, Vegan for the Animals’, ‘Animals First’. When you think Animals are different from Humans, you are deluded and speciesistic. Humans are only one specie of animals and the term Animal includes Human species within its gambit. There should be no separate or special Human rights, just as there should not be any separate or special white only rights, or any other racial exclusive rights. Animal Rights should be enough to cover humans and all other species. But it is ingrained in the minds of most human animals that their kind is their entire priority.
9. We have no socialisation with the victim animals, as they live elsewhere, exist only in the prisons and cells where they are tortured and electrocuted, gas chambered, hung upside down and poked with knives, in bloodshed that is never in the forefront of any day to day conversation or media news, but repressed, a silent crime, funded by government using taxpayer’s money. A crime that the consumer sponsors.
10. It is Economy. If humans are abused it is a problem for the economy. But abuse of other animals, farm animals is not only big business but a rich and powerful industry that controls most of the land on earth and causes climate change. Dairy chocolates in shiny wrappers with loud advertisements that are ‘memorable’, or shampoos that are non vegan but make your hair smooth and perfumed, are all over the place. We also find not only Non Vegans but also those who identify as Vegans working in care homes, buying non vegan sausages and serving them to old people or in advertising agencies promoting dairy ice-cream, in movies, music videos, modelling for animal products, in research companies, in data management, IT jobs for non vegan industrialists, in non vegan social media ad centres, in press and PR, in television, in trade fairs, distribution or retail chains, supermarkets, shops, and restaurants. An entire system funded by the consumers who are non vegan and dominate the capital market. Their taxes by way of VAT and corporate taxation fuel the government. They are respected as valuable citizens.
11. It is lawful. ‘Not against the law and therefore not a bad thing,’ is a common misconception that we hold since childhood. We think police are nice and will catch the bad guys just like in movies. We think we can rely on judges to punish criminals. Doctor or GP is always right and follow his or her prescription. We believe our local governments will intervene in case any harm is there. But we are all good people who are fools. We are not victims of terrorism and human rights injustices today, and so we have faith in our lawful nations, whose laws are completely outdated when it comes to animal products.
12. Taste, smell, temptation or addiction and lack of empathy. Call it cognitive dissonance, being slave of habits, denial of truth, trying to justify and rationalise what you have always done, brainwashing, or anything else. It is after-all the same thing – Lack of Empathy. What sort of a human being prefers taste over ethics, or cannot resist the smell of Bacon or the texture of Cheese, instead of managing their mind, controlling their gluttony, and adjusting their habits because they know that to kill, abuse, rape, or control other sentient beings is wrong? A psychopath, narcissist, sociopath, an abuser, most definitely. But yet, they are proud of it, because of one reason and one reason alone. They are rewarded with money, jobs, friendships, and a whole support system of a society based on domination, power and control over the rest of nature, a human demon world.
What do you think are the main reasons non vegans are prevalent in society? Please share in comments.
Vegophobia: Discrimination against Vegans is also a discrimination against animals, as you are taking away our voice for the animals. This includes:
1. Not having enough vegan food, restaurants, clothing, fairs, Vegan shops, supermarkets, community events in an area just because Vegans are a minority group, thereby making people feel isolated. It also brings down public consciousness and defeats human health as we humans are natural frugivores ftom apes and are greatly impacted by non vegan food, causing cancers, pandemics, climate change, lack of empathy, heart diseases, sociopathic disorders and unkindness in society. Veganism is the best and only right way to live.
2. Not giving Vegans enough respect in meetings and conversations when you eat or share food or talk about food or products and services involving animal abuse and exploitation. There is no reason to talk about your love for eating chicken legs, lamb chips, beef roast, eggs or dairy among each other. These things involve graphic violence and hurt the feelings of kind and sensitive empaths who don’t want to hear about violence and murder of poor, innocent animals being spoken as a way of having fun, taste, or pleasure. It also causes secondary PTSD to be aware of the trauma of others being minimalised and normalised in society. Please be considerate to the strong emotions associated with horrific violence.
3. Arguing with Vegans instead of respecting animal rights. Claiming everyone cannot go vegan due to lame excuses. Kindly refer to my free book Shamelessly Arguing With Vegans.
4. Not enough jobs for Vegans to work in. Government not supporting a strong, immediate and complete economic shift towards a better vegan world for all beings as prescribed by top scientists and government advisers. If even pandemics and climate crisis are not able to awaken humans, then what will?
5. Not enough support for Vegans as spokespersons in press and TV. Not involving Vegans as changeagents and not giving them a voice. Making Veganism a very less talked about issue. I am aware that media thrives on business and advertising of animal abuse products and services but there can be an positive voice editorially as editorial needs to be completely a free press and not related to advertising at all. If editorial is also a cunning and deceptive system of promotion of animal abuse industry then what is left as a way of educating and of uplifting society today?
6. Not having enough support for Vegan politicians, in national, civic and legal leadership. If Veganism is the best answer to all problems of the world, then why are not politicians turning Vegan and making sure schools teach Veganism and society changes, as well as laws. We need a law against Breeding and Slaughter of animals as we need not harm animals to obtain any nutrient or products. #BanAnimalAgriculture
7. At workplace non vegans dominating and serving only non vegan food or having non vegan conversations, not considering that animals are abused. Harming the planet, animals and isolating Vegan colleagues at workplace, work events, job fairs, conferences and trade shows. Why is this happening in the modern world as of we are stuck in a time warp of archaic behaviour?
8. Schools not always serving non vegan meals and not teaching kindness to children when it comes to massive slaughter, and breeding of animals as slaves. What are schools teaching if basic humanity is missing in education? The first thing a child should learn is basic biology that we are humans and not omnivore but frugivore as per body type and DNA and omnivore behaviour is a social anomaly and not our natural self.
9. Constant prejudice in movies and literature, featuring non vegan activities and trivialising vegan philosophy. Celebrities mixing up their beliefs and confusing masses with their lack of knowledge and low IQ levels by saying useless and unscientific things about needing to eat or abuse animals for health or work. Noone needs to abuse animals for nutrition or any purposes. These celebrities are not moral teachers, wise ones or scientists to be followed and imitated in terms of beliefs. They are mere entertainers.
10. Medicines and Healthcare system imposing non veganism on families and individuals, demanding we must use non vegan pills, capsules, vaccines and surgical sutures, procedures, etc., by compulsion or force of law, else we will be accused of neglecting our children, our health, our travel needs. Vegan medical system and alternative medicine system based on herbs and self healing, reiki, self help and alternative therapies are legitimate.
11. Wrongly Accusing Vegans of Harassment or Militancy or Extremism if we speak against animal abuse with friends, family, work colleagues, shoppers, as part of local or street activism and in society on general. Would you accuse women who fight for their rights to not be abused or protest on streets or reach out for support similarly? Or those speaking against child exploitation or pedophilia or child abuse? If not, then why speak against animal rights and refer to animal rights activism in a derogatory way?
12. Wrongly Accusing Vegans of Ableism, Discrimination against Humans of Various Ethnicities or Black rights or false allegations of Anti Semitism against Vegans who say that animal slaughter is a Holocaust. Animal violence is Holocaust, as per dictionary definition of the term Holocaust means mass slaughter. Animal breeding for exploitation is Slavery, as the term is not exclusive to any ethnic rights movement. Animal rights matter too. Animal breeding to work for humans is not Ableism as breeding human babies or animal babies to serve other humans is wrong and is exploitation.
‘Do Plants Suffer?’, is a common worry and preoccupation of spiritual and kind hearted individuals who are also Vegan. Sadly it is also a reason for many cruel people to remain non vegan and unable to empathise with the animal who clearly values his or her life and thrashes about in pain. Humans believe the ‘humane slaughter’ lie as if the animals are euthanized under anesthesia in slaughterhouseas. (Kindly watch Dominion documentary online to know the truth).
If the videos of Slaughter or Animal Farming makes you uncomfortable, imagine how the animal to be slaughtered feels?
I normally feel the physical pain of others when I am conducting a reading and healing session, and on most occasions I am able to heal the pain or disease through my body as a highly attuned reiki healer and medium. Recently a Vegan woman online was arguing with me that plants are also sentient. I know why.
There are a few articles on the internet on plant sensitivity. Appx. 9 to 10 years ago after relocation to UK l, I was reading up on Jagdish Chandra Bose’s research on how plants feel pain and ’emotions’ while writing my Wiccan book. I was afraid of even plucking out harmful Weeds such as deadly nightshades at times due to my extreme Wiccan ethics of Non Harming or Ahimsa much to the annoyance of my landlady who was showing me the garden and asked me to remove those poisonous Weeds out brutally.
I gathered up courage and started digging the soil, trimming bushes, weeding, planting new sapling, seeds and bulbs, and honestly as a strong Empath I did not feel great pain or suffering. Infact I enjoyed it.

I figured that the main reason why many people think Plants feel pain and life of plants is of similar value as life of animals is that they do not have gardens at home or allotments to grow food in. E.g. in India most of us overthink and philosophies on Jain, Hindu and western philosophical points of views or karma and worry about plant life a lot, but we live in small flats, we do not have large enough gardens and out of touch with earth.
If we were to grow potatoes ourselves, it becomes clear that they are meant to be eaten up once they are ready. Leaving them in the soil will make them useless and rot in wet soil. Spinach will bolt up and dry out to seeds unless you keep cutting and eating them, which is how they grow back better. Turnips will decompose and be eaten by slugs as they get ripe and ready popping upwards in soil. Ginger, Rhubard and many roots propagate even if cut and scattered to bits. Roots, shoots, fruits, beans, all need to be eaten by animals and we can grow more. You can save up some seeds to replant, and consume some, or even leave some plants for wildlife.
Jainism belief in not even eating a potato or turnip sounds pretty irrational to me because I can feel the potatoes and turnip wanting to be dug out when ripe.
The only other option if you are very sympathetic to plant pain and against animal agriculture is to live off the woods in forests and forage on plants like other wild animals do, like chimps or orangutans, who are your closest relatives.
Eating animals or breeding them forcibly for milk or eggs is simply not human behavior. And certainly not for empaths.
There is no excuse for graphic violence when a Vegan life is possible and nutrionally healthier.
Have you all seen the original talks of the very famous Sadhguru who has told his millions of followers over the years that Dairy is just about as cruel as sending children to school? In his discourses he has claimed earlier that veg and non veg both are equally cruel, and that it is better to put cows to work (slavery and forced pregnancy year after year, bereavement) and kill them later on than to kill them, as there is no third option (plant based).
