If you're buying eggs, you're supporting an industry that exploits the reproductive system of hens
Their baby boys don't lay eggs - so they're murdered
Japan's largest animal org., the "animal rights center" promoting a cafe centred on animal rights violations 🤷
"DONATE" to them and you are contributing to this advertising.
Attempting to be "effective" has led them to abandon even "new welfarism".
an RT of vegansidekick's cartoon on "what about plants though?" gets 2M views, countless "burger pics", and a community note explaining that slaughterhouses are actually "very safe" and "very clean" places, with a link to a govt. infographic explaining how "cow becomes meat" 😩
As a social movement and philosophy, veganism is not about "saving animals" or getting people to stop being "cruel to animals", it is about fundamentally changing the way that we think about both humans and other animals. Everything else follows.
Non-vegans writing about ethical, environmental, or nutritional aspects of animal-use have an inherent conflict of interest since their conclusions may require them to face a change in personal worldview and lifestyle.
This is different for vegans writing about the same issues
Japanese "animal activists":
spend hours making phone-calls to farms where 'cruelty' has been documented and writing postcards to politicians, but draw the line at actually suggesting that people go vegan and stop paying for those animals to be force-bred and forced-dead 🙄
These pigs were only alive because people want to eat them.
As long as people continue to eat animals, millions more will be force-bred, force-fed, and forced-dead week-in, week-out.
Before asking for "CO2 to be banned", first
