Carnism, Part II: The Greath Myths of Our Time

Carnism is carried out covertly - and for very good reason. In order to understand how Carnism exists, we must first have understanding of the great myths of our time, and who is telling them.
We have many myths here. We have the myth of separation; we have the myth of lack; we have the myth of fate. We have the myth of endedness; we have the myth of coincidence; we have the myth of monarchy. We have the myth of disease. We have the myth of carnism. And we have many others, also. But all of these myths have one thing in common: they could not exist without all of the others to back them up. They are inextricably linked.
Carnism is based upon the existence of the animal agriculture industry. The industry exists because people are clever, and a few very clever people realized that they could use the exploitation of nonhuman people in order to exploit people: keeping you tired, keeping you sick, keeping you asleep, coming back for more and more drugs to keep you from dying, without ever realizing that this are very things that are killing you slowly. And this is what fuels their extravagant, ludicrous lifestyles. But, the truth is, they are dying, too. And there are less of them. And they are using ever trick in the book to keep you from wakin up. But I know that you know. And I know that are you aren't asleep anymore, or else you wouldn't be reading this. I don't need to tell you what is happening to the non-human animals - you already know. At this point we realize that this alone is not enough in some cases - the reason is because it is a deeply ingrained pattern in so many of us. And it is going to take an even stronger momentum in order to shift this around.
The thing I always notice is: most of us are already vegans, at heart. So what is going to happen when the food system crashes? Well, its easy to predict that most of us will discontinue the practice of animal use. Most of us will learn to forage for wild greens and roots and fruits, and start growing foods indoors. Most of us have compassion and will openly admit, "If I ever had to kill animals for my food, I would become a vegetarian." So this simple recognition clearly shows how we truly care for all life, and do not wish harm upon it.
This is is because those of us who do support the practice of animal exploitation are not "the bad guys." These people are also victims of a system of exploitation, as I have already touched upon. Asa vegan I have only compassion for you who eat and wear animals. As Yeshua said as he was leaving his body on the cross made of wood, "Forgive them, for they know not what they do." And so, if you are not vegan, I do not condem you or hate you. I simply love you, and I urge you in this moment to wake up. I urge you to see the contradiction in what you are doing. I believe in you, and I know that you know. Now act.
