Need to show her a video or two.
Sounds like you’re going to need to be strategic though.
Maybe you can work out a deal with her at a later date in which she agrees to watch a video in exchange for something.
Maybe an item she really wants from you? Or maybe you’ll agree to not tell mum & dad when you catch her doing something naughty?
I recently showed this video to someone who sounded pretty much exactly like your sister and, afterwards, he was very upset with himself for not having learned the truth sooner. He hasn’t eaten meat since he saw the video.
I’m not saying your sister will drop meat right away, but she might. And, at the very least, she will have made a mental connection that will likely lead to her dropping meat in the future.

Tell her if she’s going to eat the animals she should at least know where they’re coming from – it doesn’t mean she has to be vegetarian, but she has to LISTEN to what happens or else she’s just trying to be ignorant.

I agree with you, If someone is going to eat the animals they should damn sure be able to stomach the cruel realities of it. I absolutely hate it when people react this way. People don’t want to acknowledge the problem, because doing that would mean they have to some how alter what they want to do. The people That I’ve come across that react this way, are usually guilty. they feel bad for knowing about what goes on, but don’t want to put in the effort. And its exactly what you said, Ignorance is bliss, its true for some people.

Okay, I’m really sorry if there are any grammar/spelling errors or profanities in here, but I’m hella heated right now. I was talking to my sister (who is 14) about pigs & how cute they are, when she asked what kindd of pig was used to make bacon. So I looked it up and it didn’t say a specific type, but I was looking at all the other articles that were on there, and I saw one about how genetic research could someday lead to better bacon (which already involves SEVERAL things that p*ss me off) and I was like “aww that’s so sad” because well, it is, and she was like “what is?” and I started to tell her about it and before I had barely gotten started she cut me off because she ‘didn’t want to know’

-.-

THEN, when I asked her WHY she didn’t want to know, she said it was because it makes her sad and she won’t be vegetarian anyways, so then she would just be sad. ***** PLEASE. If she is gonna be that selfish she deserves to be sad. And THEN, when I tried to talk to her about that, she got all mad at ME and told me to stop trying to convince her to be vegetarian because it’s useless and that even if she did, she wouldn’t be saving any animals anyways.Why can people not understand that staying ignorant to the problem is CONTRIBUTING to the problem????????? Ugh, this seriously irritates me. Trying not to go all holier-than-thou on her, but it’s hard not to when she’s perfectly happy staying ingorant and killing all these innocent animals.
She doesn’t even have the common intelligence to WANT to know. Like if ignorance is bliss, what is stupidity? She ought to be one of the happiest people on earth, forreal.
