Being vegan isn't hard. You just stop exploiting animals.
One cannot be abusive towards animals in our choices for food, entertainment, clothing and research and take an ethical stance for other social justice movements. The ethical baseline is veganism. Without this baseline, we are standing on quicksand.
How can you advocate on behalf of immigration, undocumented workers, labor unions and still eat meat, wear leather? Slaughterhouses, factory farms are dangerous jobs and are the most abused workers in US, tannery workers die from cancer from the chemicals they are exposed to.
"Animals are innocent casualties of the world view that asserts that some lives are more valuable than others, that the powerful are entitled to exploit the powerless, and that the weak must be sacrificed for the greater good." -- Steven Simmons
"Auschwitz begins wherever someone looks at a slaughterhouse and thinks: they're only animals." -- Theodor Adorno
"People often say humans have always eaten animals, as if this is a justification for continuing the practice. According to this logic, we should not try to prevent people from murdering other people, since this has also been done since earliest of times." ~Isaac Bashevis Singer
Someone at an anti-vivisection protest said, "I think we need to find middle ground." What I wanted to say, "Where exactly is the middle ground behind confining animals in cages, against their wills, to be tortured and ultimately murdered for fraudulent science and greed?"
It strikes me funny how non-vegans think we have secret cellars in our homes filled with animal flesh. When no one is looking, we munch on their flesh. We do have secret cellars in our homes, only they're filled with the flesh of non-vegans who ask where we get our protein from.
"Baby steps. Honey, put down the pacifier and take off the diaper. You are an adult. You are capable of taking big steps and with a confident stride." - Holly Goheavy
"Who am I to impose my values on my children?" You're a parent.
Are we looking at the next pandemic? Don't worry, it's safe to continue eating products from bodies of exploited, captive animals. Avian flu has found in up to 1/3 of all supermarket milk samples. Plants don't get the flu! statnews.com/2024/04/25/h5n…
"Whoever doesn't hesitate to vivisect will hardly hesitate to lie about it." George Bernard Shaw
My fourth opinion piece of the year, published today in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, is in honor of #WorldDayForAnimalsInLabs. stltoday.com/opinion/column…
"How do we justify our treatment of nonhumans? We lie- to ourselves and to each other, about our species and about others. Deceptive language perpetuates speciesism...Like sexism or racism...speciesism can’t survive without lies."~ Joan Dunayer, Animal Equality
This is quite good, though not perfect. Sure, factory farms are absolutely horrific, but so are so called small or family farms. Nonhuman animals are individuals who experience pleasure, pain, joy, equal to humans. vox.com/climate/241312…
Nice to see the support my anti-rodeo op-ed in the @SLOTribune received. sanluisobispo.com/opinion/letter…
All the concern in media about vegan diets. Experts warn we must properly plan our meals. Meanwhile 2/3 of Americans are overweight or obese, 40 million people are diabetic. We are less than one percent of the population. Who should be properly planning their meals?
Part III: It's an unskillful way to live. It diminishes our ability to express compassion and kindness. We're so much better than this. Let us not only consider the ramifications of global climate crisis on the planet, but also upon all of the creatures who inhabit it . #EarthDay

The Dodgers have been extending Glasnow out more than I expected them to. I was surprised that he went 8 in that last start and a little surprised he went back out for the 7th here. He’s been excellent, don’t get me wrong. Just expected a little more caution early in the season.

That’s the beauty of rising attention to the matter of animal welfare. It’s not about closing people’s mouths. It’s about opening our hearts. nationalreview.com/magazine/2024/…
You can’t “cheat” on veganism because it’s a lifestyle based on ethical beliefs. You’re either vegan, or you’re dabbling in eating plant based, or transitioning. I don’t know any vegans who would be ok eating “the odd cheeseburger” - we literally don’t see it as food.
@Denielle425 How long have you been a strict vegan for? I emphasize strict because a very large chunk of vegans cheat and cheat often. Little bit of cheese, little full dairy cake, ice-cream, even the odd cheese burger. Be honest now.
Feeling very @NaomiAKlein lately except my doppelganger is a tabloid writer with the *exact* same name. Ugh. So now my hate mail is a mix, from the far right and now leftists, and it takes a moment for my brain to process which Will Potter they are insulting
This story doesn’t mention that the cows these farmers are so worried about are just defending their babies from being stolen. They are shocked by the cows’ behavior—they can’t understand that an animal will defend her baby with her own life if necessary. farmersjournal.ie/news/news/know…
Thirty years since the Northridge earthquake! Still the scariest event I’ve ever experienced.
@ThinkingVegan A lot of it is supplemented. They fortify a lot of cereals, breads, meats, etc, so even when they eat unoptimized stuff they still get to squeak out some extra years compared to if they ate similarly in the past.
Vegan for 22 years! Analytics optimal, VO2 max high (I also exercise.) I feel better morally, emotionally, and physically than when I ate animals. TRY @veganuary @AnimalEquality
@elliotswartz @UPSIDEfoods Nothing wrong with critical takes and reporting on any industry IMO but cultivated meat continues to be a proxy for our biases around tech in the food system.
While veganism has never been widespread in leftism, it used to be more common. One reason imo is that most vegan activism now is focused on food / personal choice: recipes, restaurant options, healthy lifestyle, etc. When intro’d that way I think lots of lefties dont ’get it.’
This is a banal point to make in animal rights world but I’m newly struck by not just how morally diminished but also how intellectually threadbare left thought is when it lacks any critical engagement with human dominionism (this is a very specific subtweet 🙃)
