Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
She tweaking off the dairy. Hard for me to even get past minute 5 with the straw man arguments but always great to see Ed.
Did she say she is neurotic and that is why she cannot be vegan?! She briefly mentioned her inability to branch out regarding her unwillingness to go vegan, but immediately sprang into an erratic and misinformed history lesson about meat-eating⦠what?!?
Edit to add: holy shit, this chick is confidently incorrect in every way.
Is there a reason to watch this past 6 minutes? Because I am not sure how much longer I can listen to her. She really needs to cut back on the Dr. Pepper.
Can anyone name a single colonizer who was a vegan?
And she brings up how people in India only avoid cows, this isn't true. I don't understand why so many people who claim to care about "indigenous" or minority cultures when it comes to veganism are so misinformed or ignorant about foreign cultures. I mean, I do, of course, 'cause they're just using them as props, but it's a bit ironic. About 20-30% of the Indian population is vegetarian, and even the meat eaters say they limit their intake of meat. There are also Satvic Hindus and the Jainists in India who are vegan, for the exact same reason some random woman in the US is vegan: non cruelty to other living beings.
Then there are Mahayana Buddhists throughout Asia who are either vegetarian or vegan. Jamaican Ital Rastafarians who are vegans. There's a 4000 person black Hebrew Israelite village of just vegans. Plus just lots of random vegans throughout all of history all over the world like Al-Ma'arri from Syria, Pythagoras from Greece, da Vinci from Italy. And probably loads of random vegans from thousands of indigenous tribes who just woke up and decided to abstain from meat for the same reasons everyone else does. It's not some white centered thing from some LA, I don't get why that's even become a belief. I became a vegetarian at the age of 4 staying with my family in Colombia because I learned where meat came from and that was that for me. I didn't even know the word "vegetarian" existed, I had no idea there were others. It didn't matter, I didn't want to see an animal die for a meal and that was that.
the way she didnβt understand thatβs sheβs appropriating indigenous culture to justify her actions was probably the best part. OH and when she said she said she needs her notes. I really strive to be able to argue veganism in this manner any time of day
Halal is the most barbaric method to kill an animal. I was a muslim for 30 years, i've seen it myself. Its like a living nightmare. A complete horror show
She did not witness the killing, she is right that halal farms do kill the animals on the farm at least that was my experience when i was a kid in a muslim family at the US halal farm in DC
In Pakistan the people typically take the animal home and kill it on their property or on the street, so the streets are pretty gross, a sibling of mine did SACRIFICE an animal at age 8 i think, i was around age 12 and i refused to do it and was crying and screaming, i never ever consumed goat or sheep again
The animals do still move and shake after they are cut, its not instant and they cry and its traumatizing for them because they KNOW their death is coming cause they arent blind
I DID believe that kosher and halal was the best option for killing animals based on the fact that i thought people needed to consume animals to survive, so whenever i went to BK, McD or other places i would get a vegetarian meal or fish, fish in general is just halal by default, we never consumed crab or other things in my family im not sure if thats a muslim thing
I stopped being muslim a decade ago and have been vegan for about 3yrs or so
You can tell that she is not listening at all
Love earthling Ed π
