Some people talk about compassion as if it's a flaw. Like caring deeply about what happens to animals is something excessive or irrational.
Although, it doesn't take compassion to avoid exploiting someone, that's just basic moral decency. After all, we don't praise people for not harming others when they don't have to. We simply expect it of them.
Compassion is something different. It's what makes us care that exploitation is happening in the first place and it's what stops us looking away. It allows the suffering of others to matter to us, even when they're not our own species. The idea for this design came from that thought.
If compassion is enough to make someone appear extreme in a world built on animal exploitation, perhaps the problem isn't compassion.
'RADICALISED BY COMPASSION' is available now on t-shirts, tanks, hoodies, long sleeves and stickers.
