I used to be strictly materialist and atheist. Now I’m pretty spiritual. Don’t necessarily follow a religion and don’t support bigotry but yeah, I’m fairly spiritual now. This is a recent development and I never thought I’d be here like 5 years ago.

    Same! You just have such little control over your food as a child, especially in an unsupportive family. It wasn’t until I moved out, was buying my own groceries, cooking my own food when I stumbled across a philosophy video going through the ethical arguments and I couldn’t argue against of it. Went vegan as a “test” just to see if I could, and here I am ~15 years later. Never going back.

    As with most things, social pressure is the biggest hurdle.
