Back the first half of this hard - what you're describing as militant veganism often makes people hate vegans and doesn't make them love animals any more/tap into the part of people that cares and wants to help (links to care ethics , the problems with the pre eminence of rationalism/dualism , yadayayda) - there's a place for it for sure but not in 'converting' people by trying to essentially cerebrally/ethically flex on them and undermine their own care/thoughts. Thanks for sharing this
