Simple and Succinct Moral Justifications for Veganism

Many vegan theorists have lengthy diatribes for veganism, for animal rights, or against welfarism*. But they're unnecessary. Brevity is a virtue. Thus, I will be brief.

These are some simple and succinct justifications for veganism:

• Animals are my friends and I don't eat my friends.
• Veganism feels good physically and psychologically. It gives the vegan person a clear conscience.
  
• Life and freedom have value for all beings.
  

*Welfarism is short for "animal welfarism," which is the movement to treat animals "humanely." The essential premise of animal welfarism is that animals exist to serve humans, but that humans shouldn't treat animals poorly. Basically, animals should not to be abused or neglected.

Welfarism differs from abolitionism, the movement to curb human interference in animals' lives.
