what's the story behind that pic? have a rare Dazai, author of Shin-Hamurretto (New Hamlet).

I gotta say, all this opposition really fucking triggers me. Granted, I'm vegan, but I just don't get all these incoherent self-defeated thoughts trying to flimsily counter-argue something this established, as if most haven't been proven fallacious time and time again, as if the ones that aren't fallacious aren't still wrong by consequence of the standards that most profess to follow. Even when I wasn't vegan, ever since I encountered the idea of vegetarianism/veganism, I never though "what silly nonsense!", always, every time, it made complete sense (worth mentioning, it took me years to convert) - everyone on earth agrees that purposely damaging others is bad (awful, even), to the point were even scenarios like "but would you torture the man who killed your mother to death?" are contentious among many. This is because everyone understands the purely biological factor of: everyone suffers, so let's strive to avoid it as far as we can. And in the case of consuming animal products, we all can - third world, first world, lots of money, unemployed, fat cunt, skinny kid. Look, if you're reading this, if you're alive in 2017, chances is there's something substantial you can do about it.

Justifying all this shit really is just proof of how bound people are to traditions. Even the greatest minds, I see partaking in this moronic ritual. You have all the reasons against it - ethical, environmental, health, but somehow they're never enough. All those books that you read, for nothing. Bunch of fucking nonsense. Daddy and mommy did it, so big fucko will swallow the cum accordingly. Fantastic.

I'm looking for recommendations, have been reading bernhard, dazai, notes from underground, good morning midnight, kawabata, stoner, hunger among other things
