How can anyone become aware of it and not become obsessed?

Anyone with experience with activism will tell you how often nonvegans accuse activists of “being obsessed with animals” and that we waste our energy with animal rights when there are so many human issues to solve.

However, the more you think about it, the harder is to NOT become obsessed with it. Think about it, not only there is a perpetual holocaust of innocent creatures who can’t speak to defend themselves, can’t escape, only want to live and have nothing but their lives for something as meaningless as taste pleasure people forget the next day, but how ubiquitous animal abuse and exploitation is, how many products involve so much torture and murder to animals and how they are just in every social gathering, so many ads with animal body parts in display everywhere, so frequently discussed the enjoyment of eating animal body parts in conversations, as if all this massacre was just nothing in their eyes, how they don’t have the image of animals being gassed to death or stabbed in the throat in their minds when eating their bodies.

No human injustice can be compared to what animals are going through, objectively speaking. Even if you still had some of human supremacy installed in your software, and claimed that human life was somehow equivalent to a certain number of animal deaths and you could back it up somehow (which they never do), that number of animal deaths has been surpassed BY FAR, when you think that if we killed humans with the same rate we kill animals for food (and only food) it would take less than one week to delete from existence all humans that have ever existed. It is insane, it is brutally insane that our species accept such scale of savagery and barbarism as something normal. Absolutely insane.

And yet, despite the scale of this massacre, we are expected to have only civilized discussions, as if holding people accountable for taking part in this was somehow worse than the action of forcing to animals into murderhouses itself. Are we this unhinged as a species? The messenger is the problem, not the mass torture and murder? How can people trying to spread awareness be the crazy ones? It is collective gaslighting, playing numbers against us to keep the status quo.  

Our societies are sick with subconscious, collective narcissism. No accountability. Sentient creatures are garbage deserving of death, and if you question it or resist it you are crazy. Why? because you are not in the perceived majority. "All of the violence is normal and everybody around me does it, so don't try to question things nor resist them or you are the crazy one. Don't make me think about my choices. If normal, things should stay this way"....

Absolute insanity. We are an unhinged species for accepting this as normal.
