Can you tell me what the major beliefs held by vegans are?
<|assistant|>
Major beliefs held by vegans include the belief that all forms of animal exploitation, such as cruelty-based animal farming and animal testing, are unethical. Vegans also reject the notion that animals are simply a resource to be used or that food production systems should be based on their misery. They strive to reduce suffering and to create solutions that are kinder towards animals, people, and the environment.
