About Me
- About Me: I am a vegan animal rights activist who believes in the abolition of animal exploitation. I am against welfarism, the belief that nonhuman animals can be used "nicely" for our benefit, and I do not agree with the compromising welfare approach many animal "rights" activists have been using lately. If we want the Animal Liberation Movement to be taken seriously, we must use abolitionist means to reach our abolition ends. Otherwise, we dilute our movement's meaning and damage our chance of ever reaching our real goal, which is TOTAL animal liberation. If you disagree, and honestly care about animals, you should read some of Professor Gary L. Francione's works to understand the importance of taking a non-compromising approach at animal rights.

- Favorite Quotes: "Animals, whom we have made our slaves, we do not like to consider our equals." ~ Charles Darwin "Auschwitz begins whenever someone looks at a slaughterhouse and thinks: they're only animals." ~ Theodor Adorno "If a group of beings from another planet were to land on Earth - beings who considered themselves as superior to you as you feel yourself to be to other animals - would you concede them the rights over you that you assume over other animals?" ~ Attributed to George Bernard Shaw "The animal shall not be measured by man. In a world older and more complete than ours, they move finished and complete, gifted with extension of the senses we have lost or never attained, living by voices we shall never hear. They are not brethren; they are not underlings; they are other nations, caught with ourselves in the net of life and time, fellow prisoners of the splendor and travail of the earth." ~ Henry Beston, The Outermost House, 1928
