Intersectional vegans

 I am all for other causes. Particular children’s rights. I’m anti racism, sexism, ageism, the lot. But I am not an intersectional vegan because that makes veganism human-centric….as usual. Animals need undiluted attention on their plight because all isms and schisms are BECAUSE of humans in the first place. Animal rights needs to be purely about animals.

So, get offended. I don’t care…

Vegan Cartoon

 

'I wish I had never been born'

One of the excuses vegans hear quite a lot is something along the lines of  'but at least the animals had a life, being born is better than not even being born at all'.

Being born into a life of misery - snatched from your mother within two days, being kept isolated to fatten up for veal or to become bacon or to grow up and live a few years as a dairy cow with all the implications of that (forcibly impregnated, baby taken from mother, hooked up to painful machinery to extract her milk meant for her calf, killed between 4 and 6 years when she could live a full life of between 18 and 20 years) etc, is not a life worth living.

Place this same argument on a dog bred for fighting. Or worse - a dog bred as dog fighting bait. Does anyone think that it's better that a dog is born simply to experience human betrayal and a life of pain and misery?

My final argument is that if anyone believes that being born is better than not being born at all - you wouldn't eat eggs. Why are you depriving a life being born at all when you eat eggs?

The hypocrisy of the arguments for animal agriculture are simply inane.

It's hot today, right? Imagine....

Non vegans - been struggling with the heat the past few days? Suffered from sunstroke? Been dehydrated? Felt like you were about to faint?

Just for a minute, imagine what it must be like to be crammed onto a concentration camp truck in this scorching heat, packed shoulder to shoulder with your friends and family. Sick, injured, vomiting, disease ridden and dehydrated you are being driven many, many miles to your execution (without so much as a drop of water) where you will spend your final moments in agony, wondering what you have ever done to deserve so much pain and torment.

Imagine that your only crime is that you were not born a human and that your very existence and suffering is mocked, laughed at and trivialised with others valuing your life less than their tastebuds.

Non vegans, welcome to the world of your victims. Welcome to the world of chickens, pigs, cows, lambs, turkeys and ducks.

When you get sunstroke, faint or start to get dehydrated, you will generally have someone come to your help. You will generally be able to find some shade/drink some water/find an air conditioned place/turn on a fan. For the animals, there is no respite. There is no end to their suffering and there is no one to help them. They must suffer right until the very end, right until their lives are taken from them.

If I had to endure that they do, I would look forward to the moment my life is taken from me. I would wish for it every second of every single day, for the pain to just finally stop and for my life to be over.

It is your money that is funding this madness, non vegans. You can directly help put an end to this massacre, the largest massacre in history. All you have to do is leave animal corpses and the things that come out of animals (milk + milk based foods, eggs, honey) off your plate and their skin off your body. How hard is that? Is the 'pain', discomfort and inconvenience that you will endure by giving up cheese, milk, eggs and meat worse than the suffering of that 'spent' dairy cow being driven to the slaughterhouse because she can no longer produce profitable amounts of 'organic', 'free range', 'humane' milk?

Again, imagine if it was you or your mother, father, brother or sister on that extermination truck today, yesterday or on Sunday. No one deserves that. You would not wish what happens to cows, pigs, chickens, lambs, turkeys and ducks on your worst enemy.

Your worst nightmares put together would not add up to be a fraction of what these animals endure.

You don't have to love animals to agree that is wrong to do this to them. I am not an animal lover. You simply have to be against unnecessary violence towards others and against exploiting and abusing those at our mercy. What we put billions of animals through each and every year is a gross injustice, the most horrific act of injustice in history. You can either be a part of it or be vegan, and fight to put an end to it.

Please, have mercy on them.

Vegan Dogs...

FORCING YOUR DOG ONTO A VEGAN DIET IS NOT NATURAL!!!"

"Oh. Okay. So what's that you're feeding your dog?"

"Remnants of penises, anuses, eyeballs, gums and vaginas from a whole bunch of animals my chihuahua Mr Fluffywuggles would never naturally hunt or even dare bark at, scraped off a factory floor and muddled together in a tin"

George Martin

Just to add - the majority of dog food (apart from the 'meat' bit as outlined by George above), is cereal...

And, just as another addition, the oldest dog in the world, who lived to 25 human years, was a vegan dog.

If you are ultra careful in ensuring that the nutrients that your dog eats is what he or she needs, then it doesn't matter what the packaging of those nutrients are - except it DOES matter to the animal that has to die to meet meat demand...
