After learning about animal products, how mass producing them harms the planet, the animals, and human health, Victoria went vegan. It didn't take to long for the stages of early veganism to set in. One is distinct existential experience after realizing 99% of people just don't care.
She said she'll never be the same. After watching that documentary she's freaking out that everyone's eating meat, like we always have.

Vystopia is the existential crisis experienced by vegans which arises out of an awareness of the trance-like collusion with a dystopian world. Itβs the awareness of the greed, ubiquitous animal exploitation and speciesism in a modern dystopia. It was coined by chartered psychologist, Clare Mann, who wrote a book of the same name.
