Cattle ranching is a war on nature unlike ANY other (and vast majority of soy = feed). Let’s stop passing the buck solely to corporations and start taking personal accountability for upholding what has LONG been an unreasonably resource-intensive symbol of status and dominance.

The idea that vegan diets are innately inaccessible / unaffordable is based on affluent nations’ warped concept of what vegan food even is, dictated by their own globally aspirational livestock-centric diets. 90% of global calories come from staple crops, not Beyond Meat burgers.

Tearing down monuments that glorify racism isn’t about “erasing history,” it’s about no longer glorifying racism. Stop being so damn obtuse.

Seamus As bad as that is, urbanization is a drop in the ocean compared to livestock production, the leading cause of habitat loss. Of habitable global land area, just 1% is built-up urban area and HALF is used for agriculture, 77% of it for livestock production. ourworldindata.org/land-use

Mmm these are making us all the way hungry🤤 Which brands are y’all going to try?? vegnews.com/2021/2/vegan-b…

In the last 100 years, the world lost as much forest as it had in the previous 9,000 years. This is largely with animal agriculture in the driver's seat. There's optimism in shifts to #wfpb, cultured, & plant-based meats that free up huge amounts of land. ourworldindata.org/world-lost-one…

I just found a whole piece of broccoli in what was supposed to be riced broccoli. My husband joked it’s like the vegan version of when horrified people find some unprocessed animal part in their non-vegan food. 😆 would’ve included it in photo but too late, I ate it. I may sue.🤪

Driving unsustainable soy demands: ❌vegan soy foods & soy oil ✅soy meal for livestock feed ❌population growth in general ✅population demanding soy-fed livestock foods Agricultural pressure overall is being primarily driven by globally increasing *livestock-centric* diets.

The #plantbased fridge & pantry provide free produce, canned goods, and items like legumes, rice, & beans. The pantry also supplies #vegan clothing & toiletries. Items are available 24 hours a day and are free to anyone in need: livekindly.co/community-vega…

There has been so much dairy disinformation linking soy milk & deforestation that even vegan sites often incorrectly report this. Only 2% of global soy is used for soy milk, & in U.S. & many countries, soy milk brands mainly source their soy domestically: bit.ly/grass-fed-fraud

I don't think the racism mixed race kids face from their own families is discussed enough.

Soy (a bean) does NOT contain hormones - but ostensibly may affect your hormones Everyone: soy is not safe in large amounts!!! Dairy (lactated by pregnant and/or recently pregnant animals) DOES contain actual female sex hormones Everyone: eats dairy foods at basically every meal

Similarly confused folks, think of it this way: Do you drink animal-based milk because you really want the human-based version you enjoyed as babies? Similarly, vegans don’t eat plant-based milk/meat because we really want the animal-based versions we had before going vegan. Lol
