Will Tuttle: VegInspiration. Our Old Herding Culture

[Carolyn Bailey]

We may become irate that someone would even suggest that our mother’s loving meals and our father’s barbecues were a form of indoctrination. Our mother and father didn’t intend to indoctrinate us, just as their
parents didn’t intend to indoctrinate them. Nevertheless, our old
herding culture, primarily through the family and secondarily through
religious, educational, economic, and governmental institutions,
enforces the indoctrination process in order to replicate itself in
each generation and continue on.
