Күн бұрын

Ed Winters is a vegan educator, best-selling author, public speaker and content creator, widely known for his viral debates, speeches, and video essays.
In this episode, Issy sits down with Ed to discuss his new book How to Argue With a Meat Eater (And Win Every Time), his nine-year vegan journey, how his mindset shifted from thinking vegans were humourless and attention seekers, to being one of the leading voices in the movement.
In this conversation Issy and Ed discuss topics, such as:
- Ed’s childhood and how university changed his mindset
- Specism
- Rupert the Hamster, his companion animal and his love of broccoli
- Expression, vulnerability in having your views questioned
- Culture wars and pseudo science
- Critical thinking

When he started talking about the cows I couldn't stop smiling! I really hope one day all cows will be able to grow into old in peace.

Once all the human population goes vegan there won’t be any cows on the planet. Cows are a human “construct” so to speak.

Ed mentioned a speaking on the Jeremy Vine Show on Radio 2 but I couldn’t find it. Anyone know where if or where I could find it? I thought that Ed might’ve posted it also.

Hello , It breaks my heart when I think of how many animals have been unnecessarily killed for our 15 minutes of pleasure over the many many decades . It also breaks my heart to think of the many more animals who will be killed over the next many decades . As compassionate Vegans , all we can do is educate and hope that the seeds will be planted in future generations as only they will have the means to stop this horrendous acts of cruelty , suffering and killings . Finally , sometimes I think that if there were Aliens out there in the Universe , what they must think of the human being species and what unnecessary pain we inflict on all sentient animals …no wonder they would dare try to connect with us …maybe for the reason that we might even eat them too to make a buck !!! Haha !!! Take care

I stopped the video to disagree a little bit with the rebuttal of the almond-bees argument. 1. First, my own problem with California almonds. He said we don't need to buy almonds from California. Well I agree for the almond milk, but I don't care about the milk. I want to eat almonds (relatively cheap nuts). And the Cheapest place I found them, the almonds were from California - I was Fucking Shocked. In other places the almonds are NOT affordable for me and... And they are most probably also from california. So, not a very good situation for me personally. 2. The alfalfa argument is not the best too. If somebody says: "The milk I buy is by cows fed with wheat or soy or grass (NOT alfalfa)". Then what, should I drink the same milk, because I hurt LESS Bees? It's not about what meat-eaters do wrong. It's about what Vegans do wrong in this case - Should we eat almonds or not! 3. The most Important. Let's change the system and to use Wild Bess/Pollinators. I may be wrong, but this sounds Stupid. The reason Vegans are blamed about bees is, because bees are dying from Pesticides! There can be other causes like mites - it doesn't matter. California also kills them with Pesticides. So, Why should I care if I kill Honey Bees or Wild Bees with the Pesticides- NO Difference at all?!? 4. Just a Bonus. I think bees can be killed for Any human plant food, that needs Pollination. And Everywhere in the World. Again because of Pesticides. There in no Country that can Guarantee they don't use pesticides that kill Bees. Only if you know the farm yourself. So, I can't know how many bees dye in Italy or Spain for the production of Almonds! (Ok, still better Not to buy Almonds from California.... If you have the Chance!) We just need to change the Pesticides or whatever - we need a real Vegan Solution!

I have big doubts about lab grown meat (or cultured or whatever). Because if we still use animals, which is the case, then we don't necessarily know the consequences, if this is world wide spread. We still will have some farming system in a relatively large scale. So, can we predict with certainty what will happen to animals? And what about old animals - if it turns around, that their cells are not suitable to create good meat? Then it would be financially inefficient to keep them alive... so would they be slaughtered or what? I am against lab grown meat. It could potentially cause problems for the Animals and we don't need it!

The goal would certainly have to be not to use animals for this or any purpose. I still wouldn’t want to eat meat, but if there was a real scientific breakthrough I’d be happy for everyone who still wants to have meat, but more importantly, for the animals.
