I believe that we have to be inclusive in the animal rights movement and attack the system using all kinds of methods in all sorts of fields.

There is a general consensus that vegetarianism and veganism are different philosophically. The underlying premise is that you can know what is right (such as me knowing what's right then eating cow flesh in the form of filet mignon for a year), but that by no means will necessarily manifest in your behavior. How about this?
