Why I am not a vegan

You can keep supporting suffering, or you can do your part to quit supporting it.

You see in such black and white terms.  I don't experience a great deal of suffering in my experience.  Mostly joy.  

You can't ignore injustice and expect it to go away by itself. Had the abolitionists done that, slavery would still be legal.

The abolitionists focused on experiencing freedom, and that manifested freedom.  To adequately create something, you have to focus away from its absence.

So they actually did ignore injustice.  If they hadn't, they would still be slaves.  Now they didn't turn their attention away from it all at once permanently and forever (that would be difficult to do) and that is why it didn't happen faster, but that is precisely what happened from a manifestation standpoint.

But injustice was the bouncing off place.  They experienced what they didn't want, and then used that as a creative platform for bouncing off to a new manifestation which they then fixated their sights on.  When animal consciousness is ready to do that, it will do the same. It doesn't need somebody to do it for it, and you can't really do that anyway because you don't create their reality.
