About me:
We're Radical Cheerleaders from Chicago, IL. We're a completely vegan squad that focuses on issues surrounding animal exploitation and its intersectionality with other politics. We believe that animals are not here for human use and have a right to live their lives as they want. We also believe that non-human abuse and exploitation is directly linked to sexism, racism, homophobia, classism, and other social issues.
Why We Are Vegan: Because we've looked into the eyes of cows, pigs, chickens, cats, dogs, rabbits, and other animals, and we've seen their desire to live.
Because the meat, fur, animal entertainment, and vivisection industries are cruel by definition and only promote mass slaughter.
Because, once you learn what they are exactly, animal products are gross.
Because we can't, and don't want to, turn a blind eye to the suffering of living beings.
Because animal consumption causes more greenhouse gases and pollution in general than all other causes of pollution combined.
Because we care about our health.
Because we care about the health of all sentient beings.
Because we can't just stand idly by while innocents are tortured and killed every day.
Because non-human animals are living beings, too.
Who I'd like to meet: Vegans, people considering going vegan, people not considering going vegan, radical cheerleaders, and activists in general.
