It is not only a selfish act for animal rights activists to become vegetarians, it is an act of contradicting beliefs. Why are they willing to grant animals moral standing, but fail to see that every living organism is linked to each other in an evolutionary chain, including the plant kingdom which they consider lowly and expendable. How can they use a human's subjective judgment of sentience to condemn plants as being unintelligent and unemotional? Are we gods who have the power to exclude plants from the moral community? No, we are merely biased and selfish minds who think that only those life forms that resemble us can have moral status. What an act of egocentric specieism! And to think that animal rights activists, who often use the term to condemn others, would know better.

        Animal rights activists show us documentaries of brutal animal breeding techniques: immobilized calves fed a liquid diet, geese force-fed until their legs cannot hold their weight, or crowded chicken cages in a dark room. But where are the pictures and slides of the inhumanity being waged against the plant populace: the scenes of sudden and forceful decapitation with a cold, mindless scyth, of the repeated beatings to remove husks, or of the immediate death of roasting live peanuts. We have been desensitized by mass industrialization and we have blinded ourselves to their constant pain and torment.

        The animal rights activists who become vegetarians commit an even greater crime because in each meal they mutilate and massacre more lives than a meat-eater would. If they consider it immoral to terminate the lives of entire animal families in cold blood, why do they render this fate onto our plant brethren? If they are appalled and enraged by the deranged sociopath who rapes and mutilates his victims, why do they allow the slaughter and disembowelment of peas to continue? If they condemn any kind of eugenics program, why do they continue to consume plants breeded for superiority? And how can they tolerate the enslavement of plants to a life where they are breeded to be slaughtered? They are not only hypocrites, but callous and unthinking mass murderers.

        And sometimes they are brazen enough to ask others whether they would go to the slaughter-house to kill their own cow. Who are they to ask the question? They should be confronted with whether they would go to a farm to harvest their own rice or soy beans. If they are unwilling to harvest their own crops, then they should not feed on them. If they are willing to, then they will see how cold and desensitized they have become. They will see that willingness has nothing to do with morality.

        They forget that at least 100 soy bean souls are decapitated and boiled to death in semi-consciousness to make one small square of tofu. What a great sin it is to indulge in the luxury of tofu at the cost of so many innocent lives. Who are they to condemn fur-coats when they themselves butcher tenfold the number of lives to satisfy their materialistic needs? We must not allow this treachery and hypocrisy to go on. We must do unto these callous minds what they do unto others. We must take the initiative and deface their tofu with spray paint.

        It is time that we awaken these misled minds to see what true moral status plants have and to guide them to follow the correct path to save our planet. It is obvious that our continued existence will only mean the meaningless sacrifice of many other defenseless lives. It is time we end this compromised hypocrisy called animal rights activism. It is time we do the most that we can as soon as possible. It is time when we must give up our survival so that more lives may survive without us. Remember, all life is equal. Rest in peace.
