  • I haven’t purchased or (knowingly) consumed an animal product in about three years now and I only buy clothes and shoes that are made in the EU and produced fair. I actually contact companies and ask them where they make their products, if I can’t find that info on their website.

    Regarding your statement about communities helping themselves. I am all for that, but how would that practically go down? Let us assume I own an apartment block and I want to rent out a flat to someone. What am I supposed to do if an omni applies? Say “No, you are not living vegan (enough)!”? Because that is what your proposal boils down to.

    I will not deny basic human needs, just because someone doesn’t share my ethical views on animals or human labor. Especially if following these views costs money, time and energy. A single mom with two kids won’t have any of those three. They still deserve a home.

    Edit: Something that would actually help every homeless person but especially vegan ones is a vegan soup kitchen. Serve everyone, but it is vegan food. That is something I could get behind.









  • Maybe the circumstances on how that date came to be aren’t ideal and you should talk about that with your dad. But I think you should still go on that date and gather some experience. Don’t see it is something potentially romantic, but as a chance to find a new friend. That will go a long way in terms of socializing and normalizing hanging out with women. And who knows who you might meet through her?
