We
don’t have the right to make any moral judgment about people’s
character- just because someone is heavily indoctrinated by our culture,
doesn’t mean that he/she is trying to be evil or mean or to hurt
someone else.
And
99% of the world's population is hurting and killing animals daily by
their non-vegan choices - including the people wearing fur. There is no
distinction.
But
the solution is not to insult anyone or to make moral judgments about a
person’s character. The solution is a message of love, compassion and
nonviolence to everyone, and to educate people out of their ignorance,
which is caused by our cultural indoctrination and people's daily
exclusion of animals in our meals and other choices, which they have
been exposed to since their childhood.
Love and compassion atttracts people and makes people more loving and compassionate. Judging words does the opposite.
Non-vegans
usually do not intend to be evil to animals, they are just heavily
disconnected to the animals. By their actions they become desensitized
and lose their intelligence and connection with animals. It is possible
to demonstrate love and compassion towards non-vegans and at the same
time not compromising veganism = love, compassion and non-violence
toward all living beings. E.g. this former non-vegan who slaughtered
many animals was very disconnected: http://www.farmkind.org/
