    You can not, and should not, strive to change people. People can only change themselves. I think what you add here is spot on, people want to mimic those they admire, so the best we can do is be a positive example. Of course, speak the truth, we must be kind and accountable. The result will also lead you to being the best version of yourself, so its a win for us too.

      If I had even ONE realistic example of a vegan in my life, instead of just carnist projections of veganism, I might have reformed 20 or more years sooner than I did.
