The Origin Of Harming Others For Our Own Benefit

in #vegan7 years ago

A specific action is characterized by the movements being done. Actions that are violent require certain movements of hands, feet, or body to harm another.

Can we trace the origin of violence? What if we can trace specific actions that repeat patterns of movement in history? What if there is a root cause for the harm we as a species have inflicted upon ourselves for millennia?

Violent actions towards others stems from a disconnection and separation of identifying with the other. This is a mind virus or disease of the mind. Where do you think that first started?

Do you think the first human action that was violent was done to another human, or to a non human? Do you think people started to kill other humans, or that they started to engage int he action of killing towards non humans first?

Logically, the origin of violence, murder and enslavement goes back to the separation and disconnection towards nonhuman sentient animate beings, which then progressed into justification against human animals. This is the root causal factor for our own enslavement and violence we are currently engaged in.

This is the source, the root causal factor for our current condition. It all started with a disconnect, separation and devaluation of other beings that migrated to other humans.

Love and respect for all humanity begins when we love and respect all animas.
- Anthony Douglas Williams

If we want to have lasting peace from a position of love and respect towards humans, then we need to stop the actions of harm we do across the board. So long as we engage in actions that are violent towards others, then we will not find true lasting peace.

Until we connect, identify and value other animals, and stop the harm, violence and enslavement of other animals, we will not find peace as a species. The root of violence will continue, and we will justify repeating the same actions to human animals as a result. We need to remove the actions from being done at all.

No more murdering or enslaving innocent beings for our own benefit and personal gain. It started with non human animals being targeted this way, and then we devalued other human animals as mere "animals" to devalue them and justify wrongs towards them. End slavery across the board. Stop the actions being done everywhere in all aspects of life.
