Peaceful revolution through veganism
Post Body

Though I don't like to conflate veganism with all the human-caused problems in the world, I also feel it could help persuade some meat eaters if we point out veganism as a vehicle for peaceful revolution. Potential to change the world from the inside out, bottom-up. Once we hit some critical mass of people who share this anti-exploitation ideal.

It's hard for me to imagine nations that are majority vegan(not just plant-based) waging war over resources. Am I being overly optimistic?

In the case of farm animals, pets, children.. just about every culture concedes to the wants of the farmer, owner, parent above the needs and feelings of their subordinates. I think people moving towards veganism is the ultimate challenge to this "might makes right" mode that most of nature operate on. It might be the easiest revolution of our time to partake in, because it only requires making different purchasing decisions.
In a world controlled by megacoorps and lizard peeps, showing people that we still have some agency or sway on the grand scale could paint being plant-based in empowering light, and veganism as a revolutionary stance, kind of like abolitionism.
