OK, I Used To Shit On The Idea Of "planting Seeds" To Do With Veganism But My Mother Recently Went Flexitarian/reducetarian

OK, I used to shit on the idea of "planting seeds" to do with veganism but my mother recently went flexitarian/reducetarian and is cutting down on meat and doesn't buy cows milk anymore because of conversations we've had. Maybe there is something to it after all.

I’m partly vegan because I believe bigotry is wrong. Prejudice or treating others differently because of the group they’re in, is wrong.

I don’t think it’s right to kill, abuse or exploit other animals just because of their species.

If it’s wrong to kill a dog then it’s wrong to kill a cow.

If it’s wrong to fund a puppy mill then it’s wrong to fund a factory farm, as 90% of farmed animals live on factory farms.

If fur is wrong then leather is wrong.

And if as a human, I wouldn’t want to be treated like an object then I have no right to treat another animal like a product.

Speciesism is a kind of prejudice and it’s wrong.

Emergency: Irish farmed animal sanctuary urgently has to relocate

☙ Thank you with all my heart to everyone who has supported this fundraiser so far! ❧Most of you will know that, differing from the original

Heartstone needs to urgently relocate, which requires the acquisition of a residential 'cattle' farm in the East of the country. The situation at the current farm here in Sligo has disastrously deteriorated due to torrential rainfall caused by the unfolding climate catastrophe, causing the farm to sink and the buildings to collapse. You can find more details about the situation and some photos in my social media posts, especially on Instagram (links at the bottom of this page). On top of the need to relocate, the property we were originally fundraising for has long found another owner, and so has the second, third, fourth one... with property prices continuously skyrocketing due to Covid, Brexit and reasons unknown to me, and property being snapped up by what must be investors in a matter of days. However, there is again one (and only one!) property in all of Ireland for sale that would suit the requirements of the current and future Heartstone gang (including those in foster care), and it would thankfully still allow us to expand at least to a small extent into the other areas we want - and for environmental reasons desperately need - to branch into, most importantly vegan rewilding (or, more precise, v-wilding - see explanation below) and the practice of and education about truly sustainable veganic food growing. However, for the reasons mentioned, it is also a lot more expensive; much more so than the goal of this fundraiser suggests. Please support Heartstone and this fundraiser if you can; please share, and forward it to anyone who might be able to help; especially philanthropists, donor syndicates, or other groups or individuals who might appreciate the unique holistic and intergrated concept behind Heartstone - to my knowledge also the only vegan organic sanctuary in the world - and who might also be in the position to help out with a larger sum. Given the disastrous situation at the current Heartstone farm and the developments on the property market, the clock is very much ticking!

this looks so good 😭
