Vegan is the way

@@febo2367 so true!

Veganism is a fucking joke. Just a distraction for the wealthy elite to forget that real people are suffering. Let's just redirect attention to the suffering animals.

It does seem possible that there could be humanely produced dairy. It is the factory farm that produces animal products to be affordable, though. Barring some different more humane technology, only the wealthy elite can afford products produced without animal suffering. Even then, it is often a fraud that provides a false peace of mind.

@@rayjohansson1470 - I know, right? Those billion rich assholes in India need to shut up and get to work.

@@Qstandsforred dude we are mostly vegetarian and/or meat eaters... India is the largest producer of milk and yeah Veganism is a joke...

@@satyasubhash8869 You missed the point. There is no correlation between wealth and veganism. If anything, the reverse is the case. Beyond that, you are stupid and ignorant. You are the joke here, my friend.

Yes, people are entitled to their own views/opinions..everyone has the right to be ignorant..

Veganism is a fucking joke. Just a distraction for the wealthy elite to forget that real people are suffering. Let's just redirect attention to the suffering animals. Over 90% of the world can't afford to subscribe to your uppity ass morals.

Would world suffering go down if we reduced animal agriculture? Would we be able to feed people better if we stopped giving most of the grain we grow to farm animals? Would greenhouse gas emissions go down if we stopped making fertilizer for the crops we feed to animals? Would loss of biodiversity decrease if we stopped cutting down the rainforest to create grazing land for cattle? Would global health improve if we ate more plants? Now I agree with you that veganism is not the most efficient way to produce food. Grazing animals have the unique ability to convert grass and other inedible plants into meat and milk. We could also feed animals milling residues, protein-rich oil cakes left after extraction of oil, by-products from creating alcohol, leaves and peels from canning fruits and vegetables, and fruit pulp left from creating fruit juice. But let's be real here, eating less meat (and other animal products) is one of the best things you can do for the planet right now.

@@rayjohansson1470 Veganism is an ethical approach full of rational arguments. Your commentary is empty of rational arguments

@@rayjohansson1470 u r a fucking joke, animals of other species have rights ass us, we have a duty to protect them from people without values, without humanity like you, speciesist

​@@rayjohansson1470 An important point to make is that most humans are totally in favor of solving severe global human issues and can do little to stop them besides volunteering, advocating, donating, or working in the right job. As that's happening, most humans are also for minimizing animal cruelty and yet they can stop it at least 3 times a day. And don't.

Someone who has their priorities straight. This Israeli is okay with what Israel is doing to the Palestinians, and focusing his attention on animal suffering so he doesn't have to feel guilty about his role in the suffering of real people.

Why would anyone focused on having an objective view of the reality we live in and putting serious thought to it feel like that? To put your mind at rest, I present you an excerpt of an article he wrote for Haaretz in 2014. “Israel’s neighbors should recognize its existence, the Israeli occupation should end, and the Palestinian refugees should be allowed to strike roots, even if that falls short of giving them justice. In practice, as we all know, none of this is happening. The truly great anomaly of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is that the global order has been willing to allow these anomalies to fester for decades, as if they were perfectly normal.” www.haaretz.com/only-in-israel-or-only-in-palestine-1.5253847

@@rayjohansson1470 Again, Harari doesn't contribute to the suffering of Palestinians, while, if he ate animal products, he would contribute DIRECTLY to the suffering of conscious non-human animals. And also, again, you don't need to prioritize animal rights over Palestinian rights. You can be vegan effortlessly, and still spend your time stopping Palestinian abuse.

i agree!!

Cannot afford potatoes, beans, lentils, fruits, seasoning and basic vegetables, but can afford meat? Are you kidding me? Do you live in Siberia or something? I live in Finland which is a fairly expensive northern country and I'm living cheaper now when vegan. I eat around 2200kcal every day. I mean you didn't provide any real arguments and you've apparently copy pasted your comment to multiple threads here so I doubt you even watched the whole video. You probably have made your mind without anything real to back it up and now you're spreading your misinformation about veganis. If something, anti-veganism is the thing of elite.

I will translate to portuguese asap.

@@rayjohansson1470 You do know veganism would increase the amount of food humans have by 75%, and therefore be cheaper and actually be the quickest and most efficient way to stop world hunger. Maybe if you'd do some research you'd realize how effective veganism is at solving many of our biggest issues.

He is brainwashing you rich retards. Veganism is a fucking joke. Just a distraction for the wealthy elite to forget that real people are suffering. Let's just redirect attention to the suffering animals.

@@rayjohansson1470 Please stop copying and pasting the same stupid argument time and time again. If you thought critically and researched like he has, you might realize one of the best ways to solve human poverty issues is veganism. Also what utter rubbish about veganism being elitist. Do you know where most vegans live. In rural and very poor areas of Central Africa, Indian Subcontinent and SE Asia. Why? Because it is so many times cheaper to buy rice, legumes, grains, veggies... than meat, mik or eggs. Veganism isn't elitist, it's the diet of millions of the worst off people on the planet.

@@joephillips3520 Well said ! A critical & rational answer to the utter rubbish argument.

@@rayjohansson1470 If you can't change what's on your plate, especially considering the accessibility to data further reinforcing the efficacy and sustainability of a plant-based diet, then you are in absolutely no place to change the conditions under which humans live also. What you can do, however, is spout conspiratorial nonsense -- which you have done quite adequately.

We need not any government except ourselves. So let us be awakened to a myriad of truths about ourselves and our Earth. Then we may one day have at long last a sane and pragmatic world.For this world is not pragmatic, it is barbaric. It is immoral. It is mired in many lies. May this world end.

Are you writting as a troll or do you truly believe this? We don't need a collective idea that benefits all (well except for people who wish for anarchy) is crazy talk. You invoke "it is immoral" and barbaric with governments. Is it immoral because of government or because people don't accept their responsibility within the system? I suspect that with your last statement, "may this world end" you haven't accepted your responsibility within the system. Does this make you part of the problem?

Yes, it's time for science to have an authoritative role in society. That's the only realistic way to save the world and its creatures from misery and destruction. The modern world is way too complex and explosive for politicians and ordinary folks to wisely manage it; they simply aren't capable.

@@rayjohansson1470 wait, you say veganism is a joke, but proceed with redirecting to suffering animals? Veganism is a way of living to reduce the animal suffering so I don't know what you are on about. Just because veganism doesn't help everyone doesn't mean it helps a lot. It's the easiest way to reduce your negative impact on the planet

Aye I gathered whales have a higher spindle sell count than humans after taking into account size. I'm also not sure e.g. guilt is a uniquely human emotion. Dog owners intuit that guilt is a strong emotion for these animal companions. Considering we also know oxytocin (the 'love' drug) is highly secreted in dogs, and how much we might consider love and guilt as highly connected emotions (something I have observed and theorised, without scientific evidence, although perhaps something is out there on this?), I think a lot or all animals could experience guilt in some way. Motherly love and fear are, for me, the two basic emotions. I wonder if both consciousness and these two most basic primal emotions could go all the way back to amoebic life forms, on some essential level.

Humanity is sick. And this man is as well. Why is animal suffering high on his priority list when he lives in a country that is gradually causing the genocide of Palestinians? Because he doesn't need that guilt in his mind, he decides to tackle other issues. Fuck vegans. First world doesn't need to suffer anymore, and vegans think not suffering is an animal right? Humans are suffering, and over 90% of the world cannot afford to subscribe to your uppity ass morals.

@@rayjohansson1470 1. Veganism is cheaper than a meat based diet. 2. Many of that "90% that can't afford to subscribe to veganism" have a vegan diet because it's SO much more affordable and accessible. 3. Veganism can help solve many of humanities problems. With a vegan world, we'd lower air pollution, deforestation, dislocation of native tribes, death from heart disease, acidification, drought, extreme weather, and END world hunger. 4. Being vegan does not impede any other actions to help humans. A vegan can go on protests, sign petitions, put pressure for government action, volunteer with aid agencies... in the same way a non-vegan can. 5. What are you doing to contribute to, say, the abuse of Palestinians? Unless you're a Israeli government member, probably nothing. What are you doing to contribute to animal abuse? Everything: buying and financially supporting this abusive and murderous industry. By being vegan you can stop this abuse at no cost to any other human rights issue. So in conclusion, if you TRULY care about humans, you'd be vegan, as it's better for humans and doesn't impede you fighting against other human rights abuses.

Just do it!! I even hope to learn to share in my dialect.

@@rayjohansson1470 Oh for God's sake will you stop copying and pasting. I'll say it again: THE DIET OF MOST OF THE POOREST PEOPLE ON THE PLANET (in rural India, Central Africa, SE Asia...) IS, BY DEFAULT, VEGAN, AS THIS IS THE CHEAPEST OPTION!!! It's meat that's expensive, and meat that's elitist.

I would say plants don't have emotions because plants don't make decisions. Emotions are necessary to quickly make the right decision for survival or procreation. Plants can't move on their own, so they have no need to make any, especially quick, decision ever. So, there's no evolutionary impulse for a plant species to develop emotions. A plant that is afraid of a cow eating it won't live any longer than a plant that is completely fearless at the sight of the cow since neither plant can act on their emotion (or lack thereof).

That is assuming that the plant can even sense the presence of the cow. Which it also can not since, again, it couldn't act on that sensation anyway.

Animals can experience boredom and be traumatized by violence and shows in their abnormal behavior, just like humans. Can plants feel bored?

Yeah earthling Ed's TED speech "every argument against veganism"

This is a disconnect that the meat industries achieved by hiding the truth and advertising meat is good for you and the main source of protein. Just like the tobacco industries used to. It's brainwashing and indoctrination that cause people to be unable to disconnect meat with suffering of abuse and torure caused to the animals.

Ben Friton / like to see someone dig into that question, like where you’re heads at Specially w this Autism explosion

Jack Kabibble My guess is that stress, anxiety, and fear consumed begets stress, anxiety, and fear in the consumer. It is important to remember that the animals we are consuming could live +/- 50 times longer if they were in good conditions, but the animals they we are killing in 6-9 months would nearly all have overt diseases and organ failure. Exactly what we are seeing in the human population that are over-consuming these animals. I wouldn't be surprised if agricultural practices (having studied the studies) are responsible for much of our "unexplained" health epidemics.

Any of those studies you studied make a direct connection to support your claim? What is stress in a cow? Has anyone talked with a cow and asked them what is stressing them? Sure, in an industrial breeding situation, the cow isn't doing what it would normally do on a range. But then again, do humans accept their fate when they are put into horrible situations for extended periods? I suspect there are some studies done (Hitler might have done it to Jews) of taking a baby, toddler, 10 year old, teenager, adult and having them live in isolation without human contact of any kind. Did they stress, I suspect they did, but then did they adapt and accept what was happening to them? If they accepted, didd their stress go down? Once we personify the cow with human emotions that scientists haven't proven, there becomes a subjective or non-scientific argument that will create sides. Sure, by nature, a cow, elephant, chimp will wish to go to its mother. The mother will allow her young to suckle but may not let just any young suckle. Humans, the father doesn't get any kind of empathy towards their child except through the bound they have with their spouse. I've also read a piece that claimed human babies have some of the father's features so the father will bond with the child. This is mine, I shall protect it thinking because men don't get that it was growing in me like the mom gets. Emotions are nurtured. In the absence of the nurturing behind the stimulus for the emotion, the emotion may never materialize. Isn't that demonstrated when DOCs claim a person who kills pets, etc, because they didn't have an emotional tie to a parent as an infant makes it possible for them NOT to feel the emotion of love, caring, understanding or empathy to other humans. This lack of connection makes it possible for them to indescremently kill others? That is how many wish to claim a mass murderer or serial killer is capable of doing this horrible deed rationalizes the act? They didn't get the nurturing. If this IS true, and if cows DO have emotions beyond flight or fight and herd mentality, then NOT having the emotional ties to the cow and the subsequent nurturing given to the calf by the cow won't happen. They won't realize that the mechanical utter placed in front of them isn't mom that should be giving it emotions, higher order feelings, etc. The nurturing associated within its world is all it knows. Because it is all it knows, it isn't going to be stressed other than what fight or flight is found in the calf. At some point early in its life it realizes that if it tries to run or fight it gets hurt and all the noises around it are not something to stress over? That it acclimates to its surroundings. Arguably, aren't people who are claiming the calf is overly stressed giving it qualities and experiences that the calf never had making the stressful environment people see to be greater than what the calf is experiencing? That we, with our knowledge and world experiences are putting our selves in the position of the calf and then saying, "geeze, I wouldn't want that" as if the calf is thinking that. Yet the calf doesn't know any other life so it accepts this life which removes the stresses from its thinking? It does go to the genesis of the question if you never experienced freedom, do you know that you are missing it? But once you experience freedom, you can never forget it? The calf never experienced anything other than this life. To this particular calf, it doesn't know other calfs eat grass and suckle on its mother's utter. This calf is ignorant of what other calfs have. It has food, it has water, it is safe from preditors. From a cow's perspective, that is a good life. Humans may not like that thinking, but that is the life of a cow. Born to be a hamburger and a leather belt.

Very valid question. And I believe that when it comes to nature, morality does not exist, however, the physiological effects of consuming plants as against sentient beings may be a significant factor.

"If they accepted, didd their stress go down?" Yes, it's called depression. Most of your questions were already answered by the foundations of psychology, when human infant psychological traumas were studied through experiences with non-human mammals and confirmed that the mechanisms are the same.

You have not, since no other species uses tears as signal of sadness (some do cry, but for other reasons).
