You: Yung Lean, will you go vegan?
Yung Lean: idk i Like meat tho
Yes, but _____ have feelings and do not want to die.
Animal species (plural): cows
You: Yes, but [cows] have feelings and do not want to die.
Yung Lean: ya [cows] iaght i smoked weed wit em but how Bout Milk tho aint hurt no1
The dairy industry is actually very cruel, they _____ cows.
Bad things they do to cows: fuck wit
You: The dairy industry is actually very cruel, they [fuck wit] cows.
Yung Lean: o didnt kno they [fuck wit] cows like dat. we all apart of the circle of life to , kno what i'm sayin
Humans don't have to kill other animals, and therefore can choose not to. You can eat all kinds of stuff, like _____ instead of animal products.
Type of vegan food: smashed peas
You: Humans don't have to kill other animals, and therefore can choose not to. You can eat all kinds of stuff, like [smashed peas] instead of animal products.
Yung Lean: o fuk ye i like me sum [smashed peas]. ya ur rite. i aint never thoght about it that way before. But now that you mention it, maybe we do treat animals unkindly. Like humans, animals desire the same basic things such as safety and love. Perhaps we should reconsider the role that animals play in our society, and move towards a more compassionate model for the food that we eat. We are not very much different from animals, and in the grand scheme of things have all been thrown into this world with very little say of who we are and how the world interacts with us. I feel that by acknowledging each other's struggles, we may form progress together, shaping a better world for Earth and all of its inhabitants. You are so right, kind stranger; thank you for having this conversation with me. Go vegan! Animal liberation now! Let's change the world for the better, hand in hand. Yours truly, Yung Lean.

This is brilliant. Please, never delete this. I come here at least once a month to appreciate the powerful message and motivate myself to keep being vegan, just like my favorite hip-hop artist - Yung Lean.
Bless you, and please come to Brazil.

Lmao that's great. 😂 It was originally for a text adventure game. I was using this to teach someone how to code in Python. I'll let you know if I'm ever in Brazil. Vegan power! ✊ 🐷 🌱
