Adventures in Unclear Thinking Welfarists say that because many people wont go vegan overnight, the strategy of the animal movement ought to be to tell people that the can exploit compassionately by consuming supposedly more humanely produced animal products. In other words, deal with the fact that many people wont go vegan overnight by telling them that there is no moral imperative to go vegan. To call this confused thinking is really the best thing one can say about this. We ought always to be clear that the moral status of nonhumans *requires* that we stop eating, wearing, and using them. If they choose to do less than go vegan, that should be their choice and not what we put our stamp of approval on.
