Hey, this is my intro. I've recently been convinced by the ethical arguments for veganism (been a vegan for a few months so far). I'm a Computer Science student interested in Ethics and Formal Logic. Nice to meet you all.

Welcome to the forum Woarna!
What did you read that convinced you of ethical arguments for veganism? Or did you watch a documentary like Earthlings?

Hi! I am also a computer science student. Though I am much more interested in politics and linguistics than in ethics and formal logic.

Sorry for the late response, my introduction to Veganism was through documentaries like Earthlings and Dominion. From then on I read Singer's "Animal Liberation" and Huemer's "Dialogues on Ethical Vegetarianism" and was utterly convinced of veganism. I'm also always looking for more recommendations on vegan books and documentaries so if you have any I'm really interested.

Just to warn you, people don't like Michael Huemer (or anarcho-capitalism in general) here.
