Help me build a crowd-sourced thread of boutique meat brand scandals involving fraud, labor abuse, and animal cruelty: Polyface Farms: Interns allege unpaid hours, verbal abuse, campylobacter poisoning, discouragement of medical treatment oneexperienceofmany.weebly.com/intern-reviews…

Advocates of “regenerative ranching” methods claim they’re slashing the carbon footprint of the ranching industry — but they’re actually propping up a scam that Big Ag is bankrolling. jacobinmag.com/2022/03/big-ag…

A single 1/4 beef patty requires 460 gallons of water. 2 months worth of showers!

✨A human that is vegan was mean to me online, therefore I, myself, can never be vegan. The animals must suffer as retribution✨

its always veganism has ties to colonialism but never speciesism has ties to colonialism.. interesting

Imagine calling an animal entirely dependent on your care a freeloader. Gross. You love your cats, dogs, goldfish, hamsters, and cockatiels unconditionally, then have conditional, transactional relationships like this with animals who are no different from your beloved pets.

What this effectively reveals is that your average sushi roll and tuna can likely has a direct financial link to shark finning and slavery. This is not just an Asian problem. Fish killed by this fleet are sold in restaurants and grocery stores all over the world.

I recognise that many people don’t want to face this reality. But you just cannot reconcile the production of appreciable amounts of food by livestock farming with the protection of Earth systems.

"Vegans are extreme" And yet you kill animals just for a snack

Here's the #COP27 menu...ignoring the fact that #animalagriculture goes hand in hand with mass #deforestation, #ClimateChange, trillions of gallons of water usage. Could always opt for the Sea Bass and help contribute towards Ocean dead zones. 🤡🤡🤡

Time to admit that our carnivorous appetite is one of the most dangerous forces on the planet.

This influential creator's silence on animal ag has been deafening. Silence broken! We'll see how this goes...

In case you had any doubts about global leaders' ability to lead on climate change...

"Virtue signaling" is a "May all beings be free of suffering" bumper sticker on your car when you are not a vegan. Being a vegan and rejecting all animal use in your daily life is the single most important form of activism for animals in which you can engage. #vegan #veganism

COP27 is nothing but a matter of greenwashing to promote the fantasy peddled by government/corporate interests that we can save the planet without radical change. COP27 and all COPS are COP OUTS. Nothing more. #vegan #veganism

"Fine" cheese takes on a different light when you realize that it’s the result of mixing an unconsenting mother’s stolen milk with fluids from her stolen baby’s dead body.

Wow look at all of these dead vegans who died of malnutrition from their deficient vegan diets

Oof literally just had to explain this to my mom. she tried to make me watch dressage videos with her

but, like, have you even tasted bacon?

Ditto for being *any* kind of animal advocate. Advocacy will never be effective if the people doing it have not fully broken their false entitlement to use and exploit animals whenever it benefits them
