I have no chill in real life.

No equivocation on the issue, and always make sure you state your true opinion, regardless of if you are the only person in the room who thinks that way. I think that If you stay silent, your family and friends wont understand your positions and will be less likely to be influenced by your actions.

For example, my very close circle have de facto adopted the parts of the vegan framework of looking at the world. From all those times of my shouting at the television whenever someone says or does something monstrous about animals, they now can't hear somebody talk about how "animals are here for us to use them" without challenging it themselves.

They aren't vegans, but they are becoming allies.
