# Nick's Definition of Veganism
|
||
|
||
>Veganism is an applied ethical position that advocates for the equal, trait-adjusted application of commonplace human rights (such as the UN's Universal Declaration of Human Rights) to non-human sentient beings.
|
||
|
||
#### Terms:
|
||
|
||
**Sentient being:** an entity for whom a subjective experience can be reasonably argued, such as with vertebrate animals.
|
||
|
||
**Right:** an entitlement to an action, that if not performed, or an inaction, that if performed, would be bad in principle (meaning independent of utility concerns). For example, if others perform an action that deprives me of X, or fail to take an action necessary for me to have X, it would be considered wrong in principle, independent of the consequences or utility of such actions or inactions.
