Steps 1–3 are non-negotiable
Qualify with exploitation, establish respect, expose the contradiction. Without that foundation you cannot flex on later steps — and you will lose the conversation to diet talk or tangents.
Practice
Start a conversation
There is no menu on the street. By default you meet one unknown person and just talk, the way it really happens.
Sign in and the coach will pick each conversation for you, shaped around what you need to practice.
Define exploitation in step 1
Exploitation means using someone for your purposes. Show flesh, milk, eggs, skins. Make it about feeling and exploitation — not factory farms, suffering, or statistics.
Say agree, not believe
Ask 'Do you agree?' not 'Do you believe?' Belief triggers religion and semantics tangents. Agreement keeps the conversation on stated values.
Weak: Do you believe humans should respect other animals?
Strong: Do you agree that humans should respect other animals?
