Many traditional Democrats - aided and abetted by progressive politicians and non-profits who in their hearts know better - support Biden on the basis of the increasingly absurd proposition that he is the only one who can beat Trump. 1/4

Anyone who wants to help the people of Gaza by giving a message to Joe Biden - something I think is a very good idea, by the way - would most powerfully do so by voting for the candidate who has called for a ceasefire from the very beginning.

Americans are obsessed with protein. They eat about 2x as much of it as the federal government advises, and 60% of US adults are trying to get even more of it into their diets. Excessive protein consumption could be making us sick. It's also wrecking the planet. How much

For rescuing two nearly-dead baby pigs with no market value, Wayne Hsiung was charged with felony racketeering & burglary charges, a case pursued by *dozens* of FBI agents. It's a shocking abuse of law enforcement, punitively targeting dissidents of corporate power.

The death (murder?) of Alexey Navalny is a travesty, demonstrating the deep rot in Russian politics. But similar corruption exists in the United States - just when activists threaten ECONOMIC rather than POLITICAL power. 1/x

White culture doesn’t care for animals. White societies eat more animals per capita than the rest of the world by a wide margin. White countries clear-cut their forests and invented dedicated factories to kill more animals. The dog obsession thing is just a performative façade.

The National Chicken Council wants plant-based meats to be "labeled in a way that clearly explains ... how they were made." Which is a principle I agree with ... and would love to see applied to factory farmed chicken.

Yesterday a major research paper comes out showing how two university research centers are de facto doing paid-for meat industry science and comms on climate. No news coverage and not a peep from most food and climate journos. But we ask: how did tobacco and oil get away with it?

JULIAN ASSANGE IS FREE Julian Assange is free. He left Belmarsh maximum security prison on the morning of 24 June, after having spent 1901 days there. He was granted bail by the High Court in London and was released at Stansted airport during the afternoon, where he boarded a

I recently visited my family in Springfield Ohio, I gotta be honest the situation was way worse than I thought. Here’s what the media isn’t telling you.

Just to clarify these terms: #Veganism is an ethical principle that rejects animal exploitation. It's not a diet. Whole food plant-based diets have benefits for both health and the environment. #Carnivore diet is an eating disorder.

Prediction: 100 years from now, people will say the most neglected moral issue of our age was wild animal suffering. I am in Costa Rica and while there is mind blowing beauty there is also disturbing cruelty and suffering. I saw a pit viper eat a hummingbird alive.

The only truly democratic approach voting is to be a single-issue voter focused on animal rights. Non-human animals are 99.9+% of the sentient beings on earth. Voting for them is voting for democracy - and against violent rule by a single group.
