What might help Brent to resolve his feelings of cognitive dissonance is dissociation or change in perception of the behavior.

What is Cognitive Dissonance?

This problem refers to a mental tension caused by the adoption of two or more ideas, which seem to be against each other, for which the person cannot identify which idea to lean towards.

In Brent's case, who has the "meat paradox," he hates animals being killed but he likes bacon, so he has two options:

  1. Dissociate what he eats from his support for animals, that is, not take it into account since he can think of helping multiple other animals.
  2. Change the perception of his behavior, associating it to something neutral with which his feeling for supporting animals should not be in conflict.
