@@dakota3086 This "purism" idea is actually the worst for ANY KIND OF CHANGE vegans and environmental activist work for. Everyone can be absolutely selfish and openly cruel about their decision, and we don't take accountability for them. But as soon someone speaks out about some uncomfortable issue, people tend to search for any reason to justify why they don't want to listen to their point, and then comes the "hypocrisy argument". Veganism is a journey, not a goal, we learn, we make mistakes, we understand more and more every time, and we change... it's a process. But this kind of appalling affirmations are not made to open a debate, because you are not looking inside the ethics or it's suddenly wrong anything on his speech because he rides a horse in a past movie?

And WAAAAAAY fewer animals die, and no animals are actively enslaved, bread or abused. If crop farmers actually cared for animals, we would make farming systems that were actually mindful of small animals. The reason so many small animals are still sadly killed in crop farming is exactly because farmers do not care about animals. Maybe read up a bit on this.

[@nathanspark4876]

''the people who pay for the torture and killing of animals for food'' ...no my dear, we pay to eat meat. Your ''reasoning'' is not honest. So when you buy a car you are paying for the killing of midges and to spread pollution to all people's lambs? So killing animal for food is not good (EVEN IF IT HAPPEN EVERY DAY IN NATURE SINCE THE BEGINNING OF TIME) but killing human (including children) is acceptable/good/normal? AS EVERYTHING IN THIS WORLD, the truth is in the middle and never on the extremes: Intensive farming is wrong, I agree, but this doesn't mean we must stop farming, just stop INTENSIVE FARMING. This ''cruelty'' thing is just a stupid hypocritical non-sense! Did you know that wolves eats their prey while it is still trying to escape? They doesn't care to kill it before, they simply start biting it. This (and many many more APPARENT cruelty) happens EVERY F*******K DAY because simply is nature, and nature is not emphatic or unselfish, it is not a real thinking being, it's just how things evolved, clearly no God involved in fact CASUALLY we have no evidence for God. I could go on by humiliating your poor little mind but I well know you already decided that you are on the right side and will never actually question yourself, I mean, practically I just wasted some time.

@@nathanspark4876 animals dont torture. And ppl need to drive. they dont need to eat meat

[@henrik_xiii]

@@nathanspark4876 You bring up some good points here, but I think you should think more about the nature-argument. Yes, omnivores and carnivores kill other animals in the wild out of necessity. A necessity that we as humans living in developed countries no longer have. Besides, we have moral agency, a factor that makes us able to evaluate whether something is morally right or wrong. The wolves that you bring up, do not have that ability. They eat to survive. That's nature. But we as humans living in first world countries are no longer a part of that nature, we live in technologically developed nations, which could be argued to not be natural. Just because something happens in the wild or has happened since the beginning of time doesn't make it morally right. But I agree, we should absolutely advocate and do something about sweatshops and child labour, that is inhumane and morally wrong. Torturing and killing unnecessarily is wrong. However, due to technology becoming a greater part of our daily life, most of us can't participate in necessary actions, like school or work, without it. We should strive for more ethical technology, absolutely, like buying used, but one could argue that technology is a necessity for modern humans living in first world countries. Most of us need it to work, to be able to sustain ourselves, to put food on the table. But just because we can't be perfect, i.e. cause absolutely no harm, doesn't mean that we shouldn't try to better ourselves. This goes for both omnivores and vegans.

[@nettierose4915]

Gene Bauer was fantastic. He advocated for animals in a way that was persuasive. The clip speaks for itself, Tucker Carlson expected to be turned off and ended up being impressed and finding Gene’s points reasonable and sensible. The goal is not to win an argument, the goal is to be persuasive and get people to listen and consider. Too often vegan advocates speak in a way that is preaching to the choir but sadly turns non vegans off. Speaking the truth isn’t enough. We need to be effective which means considering human psychology.

If people stoped planting this amount of soy for and started planting other things like beans or lentils(only for humans), we could end this shit and even reforest the damaged areas. Search about it

the Gary Yourofski one on Israelian TV is a great one too imo .

I believe I am more healthier and looks younger than before since becoming a Vegan, I am nearly 70 years old in couple if years, but my blood pressure back to normal and so peaceful and relaxing everyday in life. 🐶💚🌷🌱🐱

My favorite is the last guy J, he speaks from the heart. As a former VEGAN activist....it was always SUPER uncomfortable to confront people, shame them, point at them, rage at them, all while only truly wanting to speak from my heart center. J does the justice of leaning humans into the heart, into love, into compassion....reminding us of our good & what we can do with it....not pointing out our faults so extremely

So proud of the Asian lady for standing her ground even if it meant not being able to do the show.

Got teary-eyed at the end... with the last one. I LOVE these people, all of them (the vegans); I wish all of humanity were composed of this level of intelligence and compassion (you cannot have one without the other).

While watching the documentary EARTHLINGS I was aware of being led from one horrific scene to the next by the mesmerizing voice and superb work being done by the talented narrator. So delighted to discover him to be Joaquin Phoenix!👏💚👏

I LOVE what Joaquin Pheonix said and the way he said it, a classic statement, he publicly supports the ALF as well, so he gets my vote, lol. 🌎✊🏽🌻

I loved the 1st man that noted that meat eaters think that vegans think they are better, then went to say vegans are better ethically!😂 I loved the man that didn’t speak for a year, how amazing!!

[@sophiemay2845]

I love seeing things like this, where people are standing up for animals and educating people on veganism. It takes a lot of guts! I've tried myself and I always end up getting shouted over or told that I've been brainwashed. People look at me like I'm insane and it's really upsetting that so many people are inexorable and unwilling to even listen. I honestly think that if meat and dairy eaters did their research, most would want to adopt a plant-based diet. I've only been vegan for 6 months, but I seriously am the happiest and the healthiest I have ever been in my life.

It's silly that someone would be offended that an ad chose to have a child stating what is most obvious to them. My 4 year old, all on her own has taken the same heart as the girl in the Tesco ad. She has inspired me to embark on a new journey or veganism that has long been in the works in my life. She doesn't want to EAT a living creature of any kind.

[@Adelehalsall]

How lovely that you are listening to your little girl, honouring her wishes and joining her on this wonderful journey. Whenever I expressed a wish to be vegetarian when I was a kid all I got was reasons why my parents didnt want to have to cook separate meals, why meat was “essential” to my health and insistence all the meat my mum bought was treated well and had a nice life. Just shows how deep the conditioning for most adults really is.

Loved this list! Nice one Klaus. Joaquin Phoenix's speech made me think of calling it calf milk.

[@ChrisGaultHealthyLiving]

Yeah, love that Joaquin Phoenix speech!

[@vegansausage4969]

That is exactly what we should be legally forcing the milk companies to have to put on their products "Calf Milk". You are onto something big here!!!

[@Adelehalsall]

Exactly! They call puppy milk “puppy milk” and kitten milk “kitten milk” in the shops. Should be no difference for calves’ milk.

The thing that pissed me off about the Phoenix speech at the Oscars was the rapturous applause he got at the end of it. All it made me think was that the majority of those people were two-face hypocrites who'd probably just eaten an animal before they got there

Clip at the very start is Troye King Jones being interviewed by Kirsty Wark (played by herself) on Newsnight in the 2017 film "Carnage". In real life Kirsty Wark actually did have a run-in with vegans over an interview with Joanna Blythman on the radio programme "Start The Week".

[@niamhoconnor8986]

I'm a pescetarian who'll happily concede the FACT that the vegan diet is by far the most ethical one. I think all the push-back vegans get is the result of cognitive dissonance and pride. People don't overtly condone animal cruelty, but support it financially nonetheless - and they won't owe up to the fact that _this is what they do_

[@j030977]

I still cannot believe an entire industry was allowed to bully a talk show host, a private citizen, because she said she "personally" wouldn't eat cows. How was that allowed to go to court?

Great clip to finish on! His words and the fragility in which he delivers them hit you hard.

Thanks, compelling as always. Really appreciate your intelligent and compassionate advocacy. To truly reach our true human potential as spiritually evolved beings we quite obviously have to relinquish any compunction or rationalisation that allows us to inflict harm and commit violence against other beings. I'm encouraged that in this time of great crisis that many are rising to shed light upon the darkness of animal cruelty and factory farming of animals for food. Namaste

Thank you so much for consistantly supporting vegan9sm. You look so young but you are educating us all . It is so wonderful to be able to open up youtube and find support against so much cruelty. Sometimes i cant stop crying because of the cruelty around me that I have no power to stop. We collect more and more animals but so many creatures are suffering and to hear you or joe carbstrong or myoko schinner and i feel supported …it is comforting. I am so in awe of the bravery and verbal skill of so many of you. Thankyou for what you are doing.
