Will I watch "Dominion?" I'm not sure. Sometimes I find the fortitude to witness what other people are still doing to the lovely, innocent animals; other times, I am entirely overwhelmed and cannot possibly tolerate viewing another "expose film" detailing how those gorgeous, hopelessly exploited creatures suffer and die. 21+ years veggie and 7+ years vegan has left me rather exhausted regarding seeing/reading about animal exploitation (including human animals). I'm unsure if I need to look at this horrible reality yet again. My wish is that those who were deliberately unaware were forced to watch docs like like to understand what they are doing every time they use animals and their "products" as opposed to those of us who have completely stepped away from these outrages. Breaks my heart. To pieces. Every. Time....
Vivisection is Scientific Fraud you're absolutely right! The more slaughterhouse docs the better though, I say. At the end of the day it's not for us vegans. This doc will be posted somewhere and a non vegan will see it, hopefully, and they tell another non vegan about the doc and that person tells 2 people who in turn tells 4 people and so on...
Drunk Vegan Gal and Vivisection is Scientific Fraud: I can't watch these things for more than brief snatches, which leave me with flashbacks for days, either. Perhaps the answer is that hopefully for non-vegans, small snatches of minutes or even a few seconds will be enough. And with more and more of this information getting out, it will be harder for them to avoid at least momentary exposure. I so respect the courage and fortitude of those who make these films!
Julian juleZ ...so glad you caught it like the rest of us did. So glad it touched your heart. Thank you for listening to our message and taking action to help save these loving innocent animals ❤
Julian juleZ Man, you have all my respect!!!!! Going vegan at your age is amazing. My father in law is about your age and his attitude is "why should I change at my age?" All the best wishes and a long and healthy life to you! 😉👍🏼💪🏼🌱
Tom Vegan Form I went vegan 6 months ago, I am 51. My kids are now vegan. It doesn't matter what age you are, it's never too late. Wish the rest of my family would just get it...me and my kids just woke up 😀
It doesn't matter how many times I see footage of calves being stolen from their Mothers, it leaves me sobbing. I am so thankful to filmmaker activists that bring these atrocities into the open. 💚
My 90 year old Mother decided to go Vegan 3 weeks ago!!! I AM SO PROUD OF HER! Her health is already improving plus her eye color is changing from black to blue!!! I turned Vegan last November at age 50 and am loving every day!! I've never felt better and wished I had done it sooner!! If this message reaches anyone who is considering adopting a Plant-based Lifestyle, please don't hesitate! It will be one of the best decisions you'll ever make!! Peace and blessings to all living beings on our precious planet~ thank you for making this documentary~ may it reach the masses~ much love~ 💖💖💖
A friend with terminal C cleaned up her diet, with the help of a good practitioner. Her black eyes also turned blue as C left her body. Happy for you and your mom!💚
Jaeshran Reddy not sure i if it is that but yeah it for sure might open more eyes for the truth about animal agriculture and how much of a threat it is even to ourselfs cause it is one of the major main causes that our economical system is going to a icetime if we dont change in the next years
No it's not. It's debunked just like every other piece of shit Vegan documentary ever. Nothing different here, it's typical propaganda lies and nonsense.
These type of movies are inspirational and motivational for me to stay vegan, they are my daily reminder of how much I can do for the world by just being vegan. Thank you for everything.
I watch these movies and consider that veganism must stay alive as an idea and ideology after we die. It's like we're an outnumbered Jedi rebel force and we have to unbrainwash the millions of storm troopers who currently work for the dark side of the force. There is ample evidence that Yoda was vegan in both his diet and his wise philosophy: Luke: "How do I know the good side from the bad?" Yoda: "You will know, when you are calm, at peace, passive. A Jedi [Vegan] uses the Force for knowledge and defense, never for attack." ... Yoda: "Train yourself to let go of everything you fear to lose [formerly tasty animal products]." ... Yoda: "Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, and hate leads to suffering. [Don't fear changing to a different way of living] Sorry, not sure how I got off on this Star Wars tangent but my point is that all types of movies including vegan documentaries inspire me to maintain my veganism.
@@pablitos99 phychos. New religion.... I am a great person even if I do eat meat. A tiger eats meat. Is he an asshole too?! A stronger animal hunts and eats weaker. A stronger smarter man emplys the less clever to work for him. This is how the world revolvs. Sorry. Suck it up.
@@marinalazaeva1974 lady... gorillas, cows, horses, chickens, rams, goats, elephants... plenty of strong ass animals only eat plants 😂😂 you don’t get protein from animals it all originated from plants. You’re uneducated :)
Thank you to all the Vegans who have dedicated themselves to bringing the truth to the world. I am 62 years old and have become a Vegan because of your efforts. I only wish I had known about the cruel methods employed in the Meat Industry long before. I am so sorry for my ignorance. I watched Earthlings and it was the most emotional and shocking film I have ever seen. Cried my heart out and asked the suffering animals to forgive me. I then threw out all my meat from the freezer and everything containing animal products. I have felt liberated ever since. Not the same for the animals sadly. My goal is to talk to everyone I know about what I have learned and if they reject it or me...so be it. The food industry has a lot to answer for. It's killing us all. God bless the innocent animals of the Earth. God bless the brave and dedicated Activists.
I must watch it! I saw Earthlings in June 14, 2014 and the next day I stopped eating meat. I'm vegetarian since April 2015, transitioning to Vegan until the end of 2017. I tried to watch The Land of Hope and Glory and I stopped at 10:40, I'm gaining courage to watch it until the end, it will give me strength and determination to become vegan and an activist!
Yes, you can do it! So great that you are an aware person... it makes a lot easier to transition, if you find delicious recipes (I love Lisa Lorles` recipes and The Easy Vegan plus The Happy Pear)
Even as a vegan, it is extremely hard for me to watch those videos, but I do it to keep the suffering of animals fresh in my mind so that I'm always passionate and always ready to advocate on their behalf. You can do it!! There is a whole community to support you:) . Best of luck on your vegan journey
If only there were more people in the world like you! Thank you so much for bringing this out in the open. It is so disturbing and needs to be shown just as it really happens. Love you!
People are starting to avoid me because they feel guilty about eating meat or talking about it around me. It's difficult to persuade someone to watch something that will be difficult to deal with. I still think about the poor cow trying to turn around because he fears what's in front of him. I love animals so I can't stand the thought of them being killed for uninformed or uncaring people. But yes, I'll watch the movie. Thank you for what you're doing.
Yes, I experienced the same, but this gives you a chance to find new ones, which you probably feel more deeply connected with (I hope so for myself ;-) )
Many people are just no longer the people you thought they were once you opened your eyes. The blood remains on their hands every meal they consume suffering and death, and we can only point them in the direction of peace and love. Unfortunately, we cannot carry them there.
I find people become defensive because deep down they know it is wrong, They like to live in thier bubble of ignorance so they can continue to eat meat. I just keep sugesting they watch footage of a slaughterhouse, then decide if they want to keep eating meat. Its hard talking to people who just don't want to know, :(
First of all they don't fell guilty, Second they want to eat whatever food they want in peace. Also you probably promote veganism way too much, causing them to not like you. As if it was slowly changing your personality
Looks like I'll be bawling through another documentary 💔 I hate seeing animals struggle. I'm so sorry life is like this for you. Aaaaaand I'm already crying.
+Milli....haven't watched this video yet; (don't want to watch it before I go to bed)....but I agree with your statement: "disgusting what our society has become".....
Yes, it's disgusting how society has become. There are school shooting, church shootings, bombing buildings, rape,pedophiles, racism, road rage, sexism, murder, stealing, etc,etc. There will ALWAYS be meat eaters. That will never change. What NEEDS to change is the be TREATMENT of this animals.
This is what the world needs to see. One day animals will be able to live their lives in peace. No more exploitation, no more suffering, and no more torture.
Hopefully this documentary is going to awake many souls. Good marketing and the film's distribution is definitely crucial! Thank you, Chris & Plant Based News crew - two thumbs up for all what you guys are doing.
I give thanks every morning for my vegan lifestyle and for all who have made the connection to choose correctly. This movie will change many; I am grateful for it.
Vegan a couple of months and I'm grateful for eye opening documentaries such as these. Sadly I was unaware of the atrocities these poor animals suffer until a few months ago. This footage is heart wrenching and I know this will make an impact on others. ❤️
5 років тому+2
I can hardly breathe how horrific this is and has been forever! If everyone would wake up and see these films, they would never touch animal products again. We all need to come together. I had a partner who had Amazing ranch, and they were so loved and loved us. I rescued my doggy, and she has saved my life after losing my mom, she has given me more love and loyalty then any human being ever. Thank You Chris and PBN❤️
Although I know this will be difficult to watch I know I must not only watch it, but share it with others who are not Vegan. I've been vegan for about 3 months now after watching numerous documentaries. Thank you so much for this film, hopefully it will make so many others consider becoming vegan.
I'm a 65 year old woman who's been vegan for 5 years and wish more people would make the transition. It's so hard to watch these movies, but necessary if we want to help others see the truth. If meat eaters had to kill their animals before they ate them, there'd be more vegans. I will share "Dominion" with my family in hopes they will see the light.
Even the trailer is so disturbing. I have watched so many documentaries and videos on animal cruelty that I am not sure that I can watch another. Every one makes me cry. I'm trying so hard to change the people around me.. starting with my family. I'm not the typical under 34 vegan. Im 46 and became vegan in January for health reasons. since then I have learned so much. I'm hoping for better news soon.
This video gives me chills.... I crowd funded Chris's last doco "Lucent" but think this one will be game changing. Its as terrible as it is beautiful with its imagery and sound...It both destroys me and inspires me . It builds my determination as an activist and advocate at once. Thank you so much Chris and team and PBN for this interview... Chris is one of Australias most brilliant and eloquent communicators both as a speaker and indeed a film maker. My respect for his work is immense. I will share the hell out of this movie and this interview also.
Another older vegan here (,not in it for the good looks) I saw Lucient & it totally gripped me .Dominion looks to be a huge consciousness changer You are doing awesome work Chris.
PLANT BASED NEWS yeah, you're right. But once I watched this sort of stuff, me and my kids went vegan overnight - and it was SO EASY and the best thing we have done. I know my kids are going to grow up with huge respect and compassion for animals, not to mention better health. I will share this far and wide 😀
Claire same with me. Once I knew, I switched overnight, kids weren't far behind and they GET IT. It's not so hard to understand why everyone should get this. Wake up, world. :(
I think once you see this you can't go back. I went vegetarian after cowspiracy and vegan after watching clips like this on UA-cam. You just can't go back after you see this. And to answe how question, on why people are not going vegan, I think people., same as me, just had no connection and no idea about how this all goes. I mean you just don't think about it when you are in the shop. But once you start opening your eyes to this you can't stop.
Oh my word. This made me cry even more than earthlings, in just minutes. Phew. Wow. I'm going to watch it, because as a new vegan, I don't ever want to forget what's really going on.
Thank you... and yes, I know what you mean, sometimes I also feel like it is important to remind myself of what happens to the animals (but I barely can watch those graphic scenes, a glimpse of it is enough to break my heart, so this film won`t be for me)
Barb, it took me 53 years to realise the hell we subject animals to. I cry most days at my shame for taking so long. However if silly old buggers like me and you can change, so maybe can everyone else. This cruelty will come to an end. Good on you Barb.
When this documentary comes out, Vegans around the world need to promote the hell out of it, every way possible. Social media, flyers, chalk bombs, etc. It's all of our responsibility to open as many eyes as possible. In the meantime, keep promoting Earthlings every way you can. We WILL win this war...... for the animals!
I've been vegetarian 26 years and a practicing vegan for 2years. I feel so much healthier, I'm 66 and my health and energy levels are really good. Very distressing watching some of these scenes and sad that it took me so long to wake up. We must care...we must unite, we must be the change we want to see in the world ❤️
Thank you Chris! I was vegetarian for the best part of 12 months before hearing James Aspey's interview on Rich Roll podcast and in it he mentioned Dominion. I watched in the following week and went vegan on the spot. Haven't looked back. It's such a powerful exposé on what is a horrifically cruel and unnecessary evil industry.
This looks like another film i'll be crying over in the kitchen while cooking the tea😥 i'm not sure how many more of these things I can watch. It's sometimes very hard to get the images out of your mind in the dark of night.
chisler26 Go out there and do something radical in the form of vegan activism. Slowly get out of your comfort zone. Instead of subjecting yourself to all these sad documentaries, why not buy a projector and go find some public place and project the movie onto a huge wall? Even if one person considers it and goes vegan say a year from now, that’s 365 animals per year that are not killed for palate pleasure (for as long as that person is vegan and alive). I’ve been a stay at home passive vegan for four years until recently I’m getting out there on the weekends with Anonymous for the Voiceless. Feels good AND I think it’s at least somewhat effective. We need creative non-violent vegan education and the animals and our planet and our health care system need it now!!
Kakashi Zero715 also if they were in the wild, instead of a human killing them, it would be a wolf tearing them apart. They are just genetically weaker species
As hard as it is to watch, this is something that needs to be exposed. This will be an awesome film to really wake people up about the truth. I have been vegan 9 months and never looking back. I love and support all those animals and hope one day this will end. Don't know if it will be in my lifetime but with films like these it could be a possibility!
I'm totally heartbroken, I've been going through a process on how to convert to veganism I just don't know how quiet I need some help thank you for sharing such a powerful film.

Great interview! Thank YOU both! I am still unsure if I could get through the whole thing but it is important to bear witness for our friends who were unable to fight back.
A massive thank you to Chris Delforce and his team for producing this. This film will be a game changer. Heroes and Legends are often overused words , however its was Chris' speech at the Melbourne March to Close all Slaughterhouses, in March 2017, that really inspired me. For that he will be a hero in my eyes.
Ecrasez l'infâme! What a mesmerising haunting soundtrack. The footage leaves me emotionally distraught. The new moral baseline is Vegan activism. Let's keep chipping away at the wall of indifference. Reverence for Life irrespective of species En marché!
Vegan 9 years, Veg before that for many years. Y'all are standing on the shoulders of many of us who throughout the years were scoffed, laughed at, written off and deemed kooks. Even today this is the case, the brainwashing and heart numbing is horrendous. I am so grateful to you all who are of such noble hearts. Blessings and Peace to Everyone and Everything Everywhere! Thank You all ... live it, propagate it, revel in your decency and compassion ,,, and finally, an idea whose time has come!.
How could I not watch Dominion? I agree that specism is akin to racism, sexism, and so on. The believe that those we mistreat are somehow inferior is at the heart of this ism. It is natural to become desensitized. This is a coping mechanism. I like Chris Delforce because he is very "human" and it is easy to see that he is a compassionate being.
I'm so thankful that more and more vegan films are being produced. It was too easy to ignore the abuses when there wasn't very much coverage. Thank you for promoting this, and thank you to the filmmakers for producing this.
It is great to see all of you supporting this documentary. I have not seen any backlash comments like I usually do. But I am seeing that many of you are in agony over the needless torture of these millions of innocents. I want to remind you all who are suffering so much to remember your self care. I was a mess my first few years as a vegan, from compassion fatigue. It is debilitating, and also not necessarily productive. Ask yourself this: Have I become vegan? Yes you have, which is a great thing, every day. Do I wish to minimize suffering in the world? Most vegans are driven by this. So please remember to do your very best to overcome your own suffering. Please don't reward such a great and natural evolutionary deed of peace, becoming vegan, with the punishment of torment and sorrow; be fair to yourself. This state of mind is draining and you can go mad from grief. Yes for many of us this is normal and it may not seem right to feel any other way considering the horror. I think of suffering and peace( I will use peace as the word that means the opposite and absence of suffering) in a pie chart. Which side of this chart are you on? Imagine if all the vegans were on the suffering side. Now imagine all the vegans on the peace side. If you remove yourself from the suffering side and place yourself on the peace side, the suffering side shrinks and the peace side grows. Can you still do everything you do to promote the end of animal slavery without being in a state of misery? You can and I believe you must. Peace
I don't understand how people find it taboo to eat dogs and cats, yet are fine with eating other animals. We've been socialised to believe that certain animals exist to be eaten. It's so hypocritical.
Well, dogs and cats have been raised at the beginning for practical reasons like helping sheperds, defend goods and humans, catching mice, saving humans. Others animals like pigs are raised only for their flesh and usually can't help humans. Furthermore, dogs and cats are pets and pigs, cows, sheeps aren't. But for centuries even in Europe people used to eat also dogs and cats.
I can now officially say I've helped someone to shrug off their indoctrination and become vegan. My physics/chemistry teacher went vegan this past June. I'm so happy!
Laurent Faurite Lmao okay mate. Living in line with my morals is indoctrination? Refraining from supporting industries that cause harm to person, animal, and environment is indoctrination? You need to go back to school mate. I think you learned the wrong definition of indoctrination.
@@indigodragon0613 Accept the fact that everybody don't have your same morals. Definition, for Oxford dictionary, is the process of teaching a person or group to accept a set of beliefs uncritically
Laurent Faurite Uncritically, huh? I actually criticize my own morals quite regularly. I question myself to see if anything has changed and why. I do believe that is not indoctrination. Also, I’m curious. Do you think that it’s okay if certain people believe things like murder, rape, and abuse are morally acceptable? I’m curious to see where your acceptance of different morals ends. There are just some things that society has collectively agreed are not morally acceptable. And they were not always seen as such. So I’m curious.
@@indigodragon0613 I think that I don't have to force my values on other people. For my morality these things are not OK but a person can think in a different way. The only important thing is that even if people don't consider these acts immorals they respect the law.
Watching the trailer for this documentary makes me want off this planet! We have to keep focused on the amazing change we are witnessing! I'm proud to be vegan 💚🌱
Just watched the intro in tears. Brand new vegetarian of two weeks following a family visit to an organic farm. I watched my daughter stroke a lamb to sleep before my husband took us to the freezers to stock up on meat. Something clicked and I will never go back to eating animal flesh. I feel so much happier in myself, I have no idea how or why. If only I had discovered the truth sooner...
I'm going to share this, but I can't watch anymore. I feel what they feel, and experience what they experience. I've seen things that are in my mind that will never go away. I get extremely depressed if I even think about any kind of animal suffering. :(
Interview Questions so you can hear from the director, click the time to jump ahead 4:58 - What was your first memory of having a bond with an animal? 5:35 - What is your background with animals? 7:00 - Why are you so passionate about animal rights? 8:00 - With so much suffering and abuse in this world, how do we remain positive? 9:00 - Do you think human beings are born with compassion built in or do you think we have to learn it as children? 11:00 - What was it like making the film Lucent? 12:45 - Tell us the process of making the new film Dominion 14:30 - Let's talk about the word Dominion and what that means? 16:00 - Will technology revolutionize vegan films and activism? 18:00 - How did it feel for you making this film, on an emotional level? 21:00 - How can we become better vegan activists? 23:40 - How can people get in touch with you?
I cried. I'll step it up as an ethical vegan, the torture of our animal families MUST STOP!! I will not stop till the day I die. Dominion will have a huge impact. A big thank you and a bigger mahalo!!! Aloha friends. Stop ignoring the TRUTH! NO excuses.
Vegan Bear I can’t even imagine. The hundreds of hours of footage they had to comb through of the most devastating and barbaric acts. Let alone sneaking into these places and witnessing the violence firsthand. Thank God for the activists who are displaying to the world in unflinching detail what goes in these places. The impact is immeasurable.
Great great video, my wife and I and my 2 boys started eating plant based 4 months ago. The best decision we made, feel great. God bless keep up the fantastic work your doing.
Me and my wife became vegan. we never felt that good before...I'm so mad at my school and college. The doctrine of killing and eating animals is so brutal and uncivilized.. I'm an ecologist. I'll do my best to spread the awareness. “As long as there are slaughter houses there will always be battlefields.” Leo Tolstoy
Thank you so much for all what you do, Go vegan, Direct Action Now for the Animal Liberation! Hugs from Peru: ) Excuse me, whats the name of that beautiful song?
That was one of the most powerful trailers I've ever seen. How it starts out with wide shots looking at these industries almost like organisms until you get to the individuals and the shots of their eyes. It's just fantastic editing (Im a film person).
As well as not buying/eating animal foods we can help them by visualising them free, happy and in nature. These films are crucial to wake people up but we must 'see' an animal compassionate world before it can happen. Energetically speaking, what we focus on grows. Focusing on their suffering sends them more of that same energy. It;s a fine balance between the need of exposing the truth and then collectively intending and seeing/feeling that all this horror this is in the bin of the past. I hope people see what i'm trying to say. It's just too much to bear seeing them suffer. So i countereact it by imagining a world where we humans only take care of animals. Every change starts with an intention. Collectively we are powerful.
I agree, positivity is always better. It sounds you mean like The Law of Attraction? :) I'm all for it, but most people wouldn't go vegan because they saw a happy cow on a lawn. For example, I'm living on the countryside, so I'm always seeing farm animals outside and that didn't made me go vegan. That never made me rethink why we eat animals. Except I already couldn't and wouldn't eat rabbit, sheep and goat meat as a child because my family kept them and slaughtered them for food and since I saw where there came from, I helped feeding them, so I had a connection to them and I couldn't bring myself to eat them. But I ate pork, chicken, beef etc. I never had this connection with a random cow I saw somewhere. And most people don't. Only when I saw what I never saw before, how brutally animals are treated and slaughtered, that made me go vegan. There are "happy" farm animals all over commercials, promoting how good the milk from this cow is etc. (that hurt even typing it) so as you might know we get all brainwashed by this, who would overthink where this cow really comes from without at least a piece of information that it could be different? For people to wake up we need to show them the truth and make them overthink everything they believed in.
After seeing this documentary I hope everyone goes vegan! I’ve been vegan for over 20 years because of Peta! Personally I don’t know how anyone could go back to eating animals after watching this film!
Chris Delforce - what a resilient, dedicated, knowledgeable and giving man. Such strength of character. A pioneer who has made and is continuing to make so many more activists and provided for a platform on which Anonymous for the Voiceless could begin. 'Lucent' opened my eyes to the immense suffering , the way it really is and it provided me with the knowledge to share with others. And this is the starting point. Chris has opened the gates for huge changes to come. Thank you to Plant Based News for sharing and interviewing Chris. I think the numbness Chris talks about is a defence mechanism for self preservation.
Today i am headed to the International Animal Rights Convention in Luxembourg to spend time with other vegans and discuss our Anonymous for the Voiceless group here in Trier, Germany as well as the fact that we are about to kickstart Germany's very 1st Pig 🐷 Save at a slaughterhouse in Wittlich, Germany. ✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼 I show LUCENT to many people while I am in the Cube of Truth and it is astonishing how effective it is in waking them up from their cognitively dissonant slumber! Thank you so much for everything you do for the animals ♥️ I know that AFV have LUCENT available to download so we can save/play it during activism, will DOMINION also he available for download?
It's films like this that make me hate the backlash effect the most. There is so much information, footage, data, etc. behind a simple concept of removing animal products from food but very few will actually dive in to it. Even the non-vegans that do watch it tend to spend the whole time calling it propaganda and saying they don't care " cuz bacon tho, intelligence tho, deserted island tho, grass fed tho, etc." instead of actually considering the actual victims point of view. At this rate i want to start making a website where i can just host all of the information and films regarding the vegan argument (unless there is one already). At the very least to be able to point to something when carnists mention "baseless religion" and i can just send them to the wall of (peer-reviewed) information.
I just can’t. 😭 I’ve been transitioning to vegan for the past few months after being vegetarian for several years. I’ve managed to get through a few movies but I just can’t bear seeing this suffering any longer. I pray documentation and awareness will continue to wake up more and more people. What we do to innocent animals is horrific.
Janet Donald that’s what documentaries like Dominion are for. To shock people out of lethargy and instill a sense of urgency. The scope of suffering is so vast, but there are plenty of people who are as horrified as you, and will do anything to help lessen it. Activism is a great place to start.
We as humans always believe that to anything there must be a usage, we ask ourselves how much value do animals have to us, but please have some humbleness... why not live on this earth and being grateful for the beauty it has and just treating the whole earth with it`s earthlings with love and respect... gosh I wish such a world would come, this would be paradise
It is horrible how these beautiful animals are slaughtered for food. I am so thankful i stopped eating animals three years ago. My one regret is not doing it much sooner.
Dominion mi je slomio srce. Postala sam 15.5.2022. Veganka. I to cu biti do kraja svog zivota. Oduvijek sam voljela zivotinje, samo mi je pogled bio zamracen. Mir i ljubav svim zivim bicima na planeti!
Man (when he is a North American Indian) gouges out his prisoner's eyes; when he is King John, with a nephew to render untroublesome, he uses a red-hot iron; when he is a religious zealot dealing with heretics in the Middle Ages, he skins his captive alive and scatters salt on his back; in the first Richard's time he shuts up a multitude of Jew families in a tower and sets fire to it; in Columbus's time he captures a family of Spanish Jews and (but that is not printable; in our day in England a man is fined ten shillings for beating his mother nearly to death with a chair, and another man is fined forty shillings for having four pheasant eggs in his possession without being able to satisfactorily explain how he got them). Of all the animals, man is the only one that is cruel. He is the only one that inflicts pain for the pleasure of doing it. It is a trait that is not known to the higher animals. The cat plays with the frightened mouse; but she has this excuse, that she does not know that the mouse is suffering. The cat is moderate -- unhumanly moderate: she only scares the mouse, she does not hurt it; she doesn't dig out its eyes, or tear off its skin, or drive splinters under its nails -- man-fashion; when she is done playing with it she makes a sudden meal of it and puts it out of its trouble. Man is the Cruel Animal. He is alone in that distinction. Man is the only Patriot. He sets himself apart in his own country, under his own flag, and sneers at the other nations, and keeps multitudinous uniformed assassins on hand at heavy expense to grab slices of other people's countries, and keep them from grabbing slices of his. And in the intervals between campaigns, he washes the blood off his hands and works for the universal brotherhood of man, with his mouth. Man is the organize Religious Animal. He is the only organized Religious Animal. He is the only animal that has the True Religion -- several of them. He is the only animal that loves his neighbor as himself, and cuts his throat if his theology isn't straight. He has made a graveyard of the globe in trying his honest best to smooth his brother's path to happiness and heaven. He was at it in the time of the Caesars, he was at it in Mahomet's time, he was at it in the time of the Inquisition, he was at it in France a couple of centuries, he was at it in England in Mary's day, he has been at it ever since he first saw the light, he is at it today in Crete (as per the telegrams quoted above), he will be at it somewhere else tomorrow. The higher animals have no religion. And we are told that they are going to be left out, in the Hereafter. I wonder why? It seems questionable taste. Man is the Reasoning Animal. Such is the claim. I think it is open to dispute. Indeed, my experiments have proven to me that he is the Unreasoning Animal. Note his history, as sketched above. It seems plain to me that whatever he is he is not a reasoning animal. His record is the fantastic record of a maniac. I consider that the strongest count against his intelligence is the fact that with that record back of him he blandly sets himself up as the head animal of the lot: whereas by his own standards he is the bottom one. In truth, man is incurably foolish. Simple things which the other animals easily learn, he is incapable of learning. Among my experiments was this. In an hour I taught a cat and a dog to be friends. I put them in a cage. In another hour I taught them to be friends with a rabbit. In the course of two days I was able to add a fox, a goose, a squirrel and some doves. Finally a monkey. They lived together in peace; even affectionately. Next, in another cage I confined an Irish Catholic from Tipperary, and as soon as he seemed tame I added a Scotch Presbyterian from Aberdeen. Next a Turk from Constantinople; a Greek Christian from Crete; an Armenian; a Methodist from the wilds of Arkansas; a Buddhist from China; a Brahman from Benares. Finally, a Salvation Army Colonel from Wapping. Then I stayed away two whole days. When I came back to note results, the cage of Higher Animals was all right, but in the other there was but a chaos of gory odds and ends of turbans and fezzes and plaids and bones -- not a specimen left alive. These Reasoning Animals had disagreed on a theological detail and carried the matter to a Higher Court. One is obliged to concede that in true loftiness of character, Man cannot claim to approach even the meanest of the Higher Animals. It is plain that he is constitutionally incapable of approaching that altitude; that he is constitutionally afflicted with a Defect which must make such approach forever impossible, for it is manifest that this defect is permanent in him, indestructible, ineradicable. I find this Defect to be the Moral Sense. He is the only animal that has it. It is the secret of his degradation. It is the quality which enables him to do wrong. It has no other office. It is incapable of performing any other function. It could never hate been intended to perform any other. Without it, man could do no wrong. He would rise at once to the level of the Higher Animals. Since the Moral Sense has but the one office, the one capacity -- to enable man to do wrong -- it is plainly without value to him. It is as valueless to him as is disease. In fact, it manifestly is a disease. Rabies is bad, but it is not so bad as this disease. Rabies enables a man to do a thing, which he could not do when in a healthy state: kill his neighbor with a poisonous bite. No one is the better man for having rabies: The Moral Sense enables a man to do wrong. It enables him to do wrong in a thousand ways. Rabies is an innocent disease, compared to the Moral Sense. No one, then, can be the better man for having the Moral Sense. What now, do we find the Primal Curse to have been? Plainly what it was in the beginning: the infliction upon man of the Moral Sense; the ability to distinguish good from evil; and with it, necessarily, the ability to do evil; for there can be no evil act without the presence of consciousness of it in the doer of it. And so I find that we have descended and degenerated, from some far ancestor (some microscopic atom wandering at its pleasure between the mighty horizons of a drop of water perchance) insect by insect, animal by animal, reptile by reptile, down the long highway of smirchless innocence, till we have reached the bottom stage of development -- nameable as the Human Being. Below us -- nothing. .

Will I watch "Dominion?" I'm not sure. Sometimes I find the fortitude to witness what other people are still doing to the lovely, innocent animals; other times, I am entirely overwhelmed and cannot possibly tolerate viewing another "expose film" detailing how those gorgeous, hopelessly exploited creatures suffer and die. 21+ years veggie and 7+ years vegan has left me rather exhausted regarding seeing/reading about animal exploitation (including human animals). I'm unsure if I need to look at this horrible reality yet again. My wish is that those who were deliberately unaware were forced to watch docs like like to understand what they are doing every time they use animals and their "products" as opposed to those of us who have completely stepped away from these outrages. Breaks my heart. To pieces. Every. Time....
THAT'S GREAT! YOU NOTICED THAT IF YOU SEARCH SLAUGHTERHOUSES WITH GOOGLE MAPS THERE ARE NON IMAGES OR PLACES???
Vivisection is Scientific Fraud you're absolutely right! The more slaughterhouse docs the better though, I say. At the end of the day it's not for us vegans. This doc will be posted somewhere and a non vegan will see it, hopefully, and they tell another non vegan about the doc and that person tells 2 people who in turn tells 4 people and so on...
Drunk Vegan Gal and Vivisection is Scientific Fraud: I can't watch these things for more than brief snatches, which leave me with flashbacks for days, either. Perhaps the answer is that hopefully for non-vegans, small snatches of minutes or even a few seconds will be enough. And with more and more of this information getting out, it will be harder for them to avoid at least momentary exposure. I so respect the courage and fortitude of those who make these films!
what animals feel with their bodies, you see with your eyes..!
I'm 71 and been vegan for two years SAD how brain washed I was for so many years! I'm proud to be vegan thanks for sharing!
PEACE LOVE RESPECT
Julian juleZ congratulations! So great! 💚🙌
+Julian juleZ 18 and 2 years vegan here.
Julian juleZ ...so glad you caught it like the rest of us did. So glad it touched your heart. Thank you for listening to our message and taking action to help save these loving innocent animals ❤
Julian juleZ Man, you have all my respect!!!!! Going vegan at your age is amazing. My father in law is about your age and his attitude is "why should I change at my age?"
All the best wishes and a long and healthy life to you! 😉👍🏼💪🏼🌱
Tom Vegan Form I went vegan 6 months ago, I am 51. My kids are now vegan. It doesn't matter what age you are, it's never too late. Wish the rest of my family would just get it...me and my kids just woke up 😀
It doesn't matter how many times I see footage of calves being stolen from their Mothers, it leaves me sobbing. I am so thankful to filmmaker activists that bring these atrocities into the open. 💚
Becky Johnson it doesn't have to be this way.....
Becky Johnson we can support nowadays thanks to donations or even PATREON!
Becky Johnson Yes, I am in full tears watching the trailer and every other documentary I've ever watched...
Same, my god 😭
Becky Johnson many times I have to look away my heart breaks every time
Very powerful... hard to watch, but it can't be ignored any longer. People are slowly waking up..
More than slowly my friend
Akuma the saddest part being that it ever got to this point to begin with. 😢
My hubbs and I just went totally vegan!
GypsyQT that's awesome!!! 😊😊😊🐮🐷🐴
Exactly. I was vegetarian mostly for so long until I found about dairy. And eggs. Vegan strong now.
My 90 year old Mother decided to go Vegan 3 weeks ago!!! I AM SO PROUD OF HER! Her health is already improving plus her eye color is changing from black to blue!!! I turned Vegan last November at age 50 and am loving every day!! I've never felt better and wished I had done it sooner!! If this message reaches anyone who is considering adopting a Plant-based Lifestyle, please don't hesitate! It will be one of the best decisions you'll ever make!! Peace and blessings to all living beings on our precious planet~ thank you for making this documentary~ may it reach the masses~ much love~ 💖💖💖
How wonderful!
This is quite a story! Thanks for sharing with us.
Wow, that is so empowering!!!! :) thanks for sharing
A friend with terminal C cleaned up her diet, with the help of a good practitioner. Her black eyes also turned blue as C left her body. Happy for you and your mom!💚
Gosh, something just sounds like bullshit to me about that! Yeah, it is bullshit.
This documentary is going to be revolutionary.
Jaeshran Reddy not sure i if it is that but yeah it for sure might open more eyes for the truth about animal agriculture and how much of a threat it is even to ourselfs cause it is one of the major main causes that our economical system is going to a icetime if we dont change in the next years
Jaeshran Reddy If people will watch it.
No it's not. It's debunked just like every other piece of shit Vegan documentary ever. Nothing different here, it's typical propaganda lies and nonsense.
@@Magani79 or here is one or those idiots in movie who are.beatting animals!!!
Bimbambu tV hey man your comments 2 weeks old
These type of movies are inspirational and motivational for me to stay vegan, they are my daily reminder of how much I can do for the world by just being vegan. Thank you for everything.
fabnsass activism is the next step
I watch these movies and consider that veganism must stay alive as an idea and ideology after we die. It's like we're an outnumbered Jedi rebel force and we have to unbrainwash the millions of storm troopers who currently work for the dark side of the force. There is ample evidence that Yoda was vegan in both his diet and his wise philosophy:
Luke: "How do I know the good side from the bad?"
Yoda: "You will know, when you are calm, at peace, passive. A Jedi [Vegan] uses the Force for knowledge and defense, never for attack."
...
Yoda: "Train yourself to let go of everything you fear to lose [formerly tasty animal products]."
...
Yoda: "Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, and hate leads to suffering. [Don't fear changing to a different way of living]
Sorry, not sure how I got off on this Star Wars tangent but my point is that all types of movies including vegan documentaries inspire me to maintain my veganism.
@@pablitos99 phychos. New religion.... I am a great person even if I do eat meat. A tiger eats meat. Is he an asshole too?! A stronger animal hunts and eats weaker. A stronger smarter man emplys the less clever to work for him. This is how the world revolvs. Sorry. Suck it up.
I want to thank you for being vegan also, the more of you who are helps bring down the price of meat for the rest of us to enjoy :)
@@marinalazaeva1974 lady... gorillas, cows, horses, chickens, rams, goats, elephants... plenty of strong ass animals only eat plants 😂😂 you don’t get protein from animals it all originated from plants. You’re uneducated :)
Thank you to all the Vegans who have dedicated themselves to bringing the truth to the world. I am 62 years old and have become a Vegan because of your efforts. I only wish I had known about the cruel methods employed in the Meat Industry long before. I am so sorry for my ignorance. I watched Earthlings and it was the most emotional and shocking film I have ever seen. Cried my heart out and asked the suffering animals to forgive me. I then threw out all my meat from the freezer and everything containing animal products. I have felt liberated ever since. Not the same for the animals sadly. My goal is to talk to everyone I know about what I have learned and if they reject it or me...so be it. The food industry has a lot to answer for. It's killing us all. God bless the innocent animals of the Earth. God bless the brave and dedicated Activists.
I must watch it! I saw Earthlings in June 14, 2014 and the next day I stopped eating meat. I'm vegetarian since April 2015, transitioning to Vegan until the end of 2017. I tried to watch The Land of Hope and Glory and I stopped at 10:40, I'm gaining courage to watch it until the end, it will give me strength and determination to become vegan and an activist!
Yes, you can do it! So great that you are an aware person... it makes a lot easier to transition, if you find delicious recipes (I love Lisa Lorles` recipes and The Easy Vegan plus The Happy Pear)
So great ! Good luck ! You can do it!
Even as a vegan, it is extremely hard for me to watch those videos, but I do it to keep the suffering of animals fresh in my mind so that I'm always passionate and always ready to advocate on their behalf. You can do it!! There is a whole community to support you:) . Best of luck on your vegan journey
Veganism is the practical path of a waking , evolving human civilisation.
I live in hope.
One of the most important filns ever made, in my opinion!
Everyone should watch it.
If only there were more people in the world like you! Thank you so much for bringing this out in the open. It is so disturbing and needs to be shown just as it really happens. Love you!
People are starting to avoid me because they feel guilty about eating meat or talking about it around me. It's difficult to persuade someone to watch something that will be difficult to deal with. I still think about the poor cow trying to turn around because he fears what's in front of him. I love animals so I can't stand the thought of them being killed for uninformed or uncaring people. But yes, I'll watch the movie. Thank you for what you're doing.
Yes, I experienced the same, but this gives you a chance to find new ones, which you probably feel more deeply connected with (I hope so for myself ;-) )
That only reflects who they are, not who you are.
Many people are just no longer the people you thought they were once you opened your eyes. The blood remains on their hands every meal they consume suffering and death, and we can only point them in the direction of peace and love. Unfortunately, we cannot carry them there.
I find people become defensive because deep down they know it is wrong, They like to live in thier bubble of ignorance so they can continue to eat meat. I just keep sugesting they watch footage of a slaughterhouse, then decide if they want to keep eating meat. Its hard talking to people who just don't want to know, :(
First of all they don't fell guilty, Second they want to eat whatever food they want in peace. Also you probably promote veganism way too much, causing them to not like you. As if it was slowly changing your personality
It breaks my heart in million pieces 💔💔💔💔
Looks like I'll be bawling through another documentary 💔 I hate seeing animals struggle. I'm so sorry life is like this for you. Aaaaaand I'm already crying.
Had me crying in the first 2 mins. Disgusting what our society has become
Milli Mango same here. Unbelievable how society is.
Same. Had to stop it at 2:26. Seeing the lamb being herded to slaughter and trying to turn back. :( :( :(
+Milli....haven't watched this video yet; (don't want to watch it before I go to bed)....but I agree with your statement: "disgusting what our society has become".....
Same here. I was bawling my eyes out. 😢
Yes, it's disgusting how society has become. There are school shooting, church shootings, bombing buildings, rape,pedophiles, racism, road rage, sexism, murder, stealing, etc,etc. There will ALWAYS be meat eaters. That will never change. What NEEDS to change is the be TREATMENT of this animals.
This is what the world needs to see. One day animals will be able to live their lives in peace. No more exploitation, no more suffering, and no more torture.
Farmed animals cannot survive without human's help, they are not wild animals.
I seen this aint no changes happening wit this fat boi!
Technically there will still be predation, but the mass, inhumane, unsustainable suffering of these animals will end.
Hopefully this documentary is going to awake many souls. Good marketing and the film's distribution is definitely crucial!
Thank you, Chris & Plant Based News crew - two thumbs up for all what you guys are doing.
I give thanks every morning for my vegan lifestyle and for all who have made the connection to choose correctly.
This movie will change many; I am grateful for it.
Vegan a couple of months and I'm grateful for eye opening documentaries such as these. Sadly I was unaware of the atrocities these poor animals suffer until a few months ago. This footage is heart wrenching and I know this will make an impact on others. ❤️
I can hardly breathe how horrific this is and has been forever! If everyone would wake up and see these films, they would never touch animal products again. We all need to come together. I had a partner who had Amazing ranch, and they were so loved and loved us. I rescued my doggy, and she has saved my life after losing my mom, she has given me more love and loyalty then any human being ever. Thank You Chris and PBN❤️
Although I know this will be difficult to watch I know I must not only watch it, but share it with others who are not Vegan. I've been vegan for about 3 months now after watching numerous documentaries. Thank you so much for this film, hopefully it will make so many others consider becoming vegan.
So proud of u for being awake to this Biggest Evil of our society.
I'm a 65 year old woman who's been vegan for 5 years and wish more people would make the transition. It's so hard to watch these movies, but necessary if we want to help others see the truth. If meat eaters had to kill their animals before they ate them, there'd be more vegans. I will share "Dominion" with my family in hopes they will see the light.
Even the trailer is so disturbing. I have watched so many documentaries and videos on animal cruelty that I am not sure that I can watch another. Every one makes me cry. I'm trying so hard to change the people around me.. starting with my family. I'm not the typical under 34 vegan. Im 46 and became vegan in January for health reasons. since then I have learned so much. I'm hoping for better news soon.
brain washed lol sheeple
Hi Irma. Thanks for your comment (4 years late lol). Do you have any tips for a newish vegan on how to interact with friends and family?
This video gives me chills.... I crowd funded Chris's last doco "Lucent" but think this one will be game changing. Its as terrible as it is beautiful with its imagery and sound...It both destroys me and inspires me . It builds my determination as an activist and advocate at once. Thank you so much Chris and team and PBN for this interview... Chris is one of Australias most brilliant and eloquent communicators both as a speaker and indeed a film maker. My respect for his work is immense. I will share the hell out of this movie and this interview also.
Another older vegan here (,not in it for the good looks) I saw Lucient & it totally gripped me .Dominion looks to be a huge consciousness changer You are doing awesome
work Chris.
damn dude you got brain washed
This documentary is going to be iconic and revolutionary
It's full of lies
I just don't get why the majority of ppl on this planet just don't *get* this. It's a sick world...😰😰😰
Social conditioning
PLANT BASED NEWS yeah, you're right. But once I watched this sort of stuff, me and my kids went vegan overnight - and it was SO EASY and the best thing we have done. I know my kids are going to grow up with huge respect and compassion for animals, not to mention better health. I will share this far and wide 😀
Clare Birschel cognitive dissonance
Claire same with me. Once I knew, I switched overnight, kids weren't far behind and they GET IT. It's not so hard to understand why everyone should get this. Wake up, world. :(
I think once you see this you can't go back. I went vegetarian after cowspiracy and vegan after watching clips like this on UA-cam. You just can't go back after you see this. And to answe how question, on why people are not going vegan, I think people., same as me, just had no connection and no idea about how this all goes. I mean you just don't think about it when you are in the shop. But once you start opening your eyes to this you can't stop.
Oh my word. This made me cry even more than earthlings, in just minutes. Phew. Wow. I'm going to watch it, because as a new vegan, I don't ever want to forget what's really going on.
Thank you... and yes, I know what you mean, sometimes I also feel like it is important to remind myself of what happens to the animals (but I barely can watch those graphic scenes, a glimpse of it is enough to break my heart, so this film won`t be for me)
Tanya S. Agree completely with you sis'....😭
62 became vegan year, I too am so sad that I took so long to WAKE UP.
We have been deeply programmed we are victims of the system. I think once you know what is going on you just cannot carry on!
+Barb Skarie, Age doesn't matter. All that matters is that you have become Vegan.
It doesn't matter how long it took. What matters is that you made the change. You were the change you wanted to see in the world.
Barb Skarie you're ahead of me. God bless.💚
Barb, it took me 53 years to realise the hell we subject animals to. I cry most days at my shame for taking so long. However if silly old buggers like me and you can change, so maybe can everyone else. This cruelty will come to an end. Good on you Barb.
I will be looking forward to watching this. Incredibly sad.
I can't stop crying... this is why I decided to become a vegan. I can't believe I wore blinkers for so long... it's devastating what we are doing!
When this documentary comes out, Vegans around the world need to promote the hell out of it, every way possible. Social media, flyers, chalk bombs, etc. It's all of our responsibility to open as many eyes as possible. In the meantime, keep promoting Earthlings every way you can. We WILL win this war...... for the animals!
Shayke Speeer absolutely! Urgency ✌✌
I've been vegetarian 26 years and a practicing vegan for 2years. I feel so much healthier, I'm 66 and my health and energy levels are really good. Very distressing watching some of these scenes and sad that it took me so long to wake up. We must care...we must unite, we must be the change we want to see in the world ❤️
Will watch and will share as much as possible! On all of my available platforms. Such an emotional movie, I can tell from the preview ... ;-(
These animal Activists are Angels in disguise..
Keep up the good work.♡♡♡
Thank you Chris! I was vegetarian for the best part of 12 months before hearing James Aspey's interview on Rich Roll podcast and in it he mentioned Dominion. I watched in the following week and went vegan on the spot. Haven't looked back. It's such a powerful exposé on what is a horrifically cruel and unnecessary evil industry.
This looks like another film i'll be crying over in the kitchen while cooking the tea😥 i'm not sure how many more of these things I can watch. It's sometimes very hard to get the images out of your mind in the dark of night.
chisler26
Go out there and do something radical in the form of vegan activism. Slowly get out of your comfort zone. Instead of subjecting yourself to all these sad documentaries, why not buy a projector and go find some public place and project the movie onto a huge wall? Even if one person considers it and goes vegan say a year from now, that’s 365 animals per year that are not killed for palate pleasure (for as long as that person is vegan and alive).
I’ve been a stay at home passive vegan for four years until recently I’m getting out there on the weekends with Anonymous for the Voiceless. Feels good AND I think it’s at least somewhat effective.
We need creative non-violent vegan education and the animals and our planet and our health care system need it now!!
sounds a great idea, i'll look at what's going on locally.
chisler26 Agree whole-heartedly 😢😢😢
Yeah, I won't be seeing it. I don't need to. But I'm glad for this film..there are many many more who do need to see this.
I can't stop crying.
:-(
me too!
Same 😭
Really?
Me too!!!
My heart broke - again. So glad I don't eat those beautiful creatures anymore
Tips please!! 🥺
Kakashi Zero715 also if they were in the wild, instead of a human killing them, it would be a wolf tearing them apart. They are just genetically weaker species

Can't wait to see the film! The trailer looks very promising. Also, great interview! Salute from The Netherlands.
I can't wait to see and share!
As hard as it is to watch, this is something that needs to be exposed. This will be an awesome film to really wake people up about the truth. I have been vegan 9 months and never looking back. I love and support all those animals and hope one day this will end. Don't know if it will be in my lifetime but with films like these it could be a possibility!
Hats off, veganism is the way! Thanks for sharing!

Great interview! Thank YOU both! I am still unsure if I could get through the whole thing but it is important to bear witness for our friends who were unable to fight back.
The trailer is heartbreaking... 😢
A massive thank you to Chris Delforce and his team for producing this. This film will be
a game changer. Heroes and Legends are often overused words , however its was Chris' speech at the Melbourne March to Close all Slaughterhouses, in March 2017, that really inspired me. For that he will be a hero in my eyes.
Ecrasez l'infâme!
What a mesmerising haunting soundtrack. The footage leaves me emotionally distraught. The new moral baseline is Vegan activism.
Let's keep chipping away at the wall of indifference.
Reverence for Life irrespective of species
En marché!
Vegan 9 years, Veg before that for many years. Y'all are standing on the shoulders of many of us who throughout the years were scoffed, laughed at, written off and deemed kooks. Even today this is the case, the brainwashing and heart numbing is horrendous. I am so grateful to you all who are of such noble hearts. Blessings and Peace to Everyone and Everything Everywhere! Thank You all ... live it, propagate it, revel in your decency and compassion ,,, and finally, an idea whose time has come!.
How could I not watch Dominion? I agree that specism is akin to racism, sexism, and so on. The believe that those we mistreat are somehow inferior is at the heart of this ism. It is natural to become desensitized. This is a coping mechanism. I like Chris Delforce because he is very "human" and it is easy to see that he is a compassionate being.
I'm so thankful that more and more vegan films are being produced. It was too easy to ignore the abuses when there wasn't very much coverage. Thank you for promoting this, and thank you to the filmmakers for producing this.
It is great to see all of you supporting this documentary. I have not seen any backlash comments like I usually do. But I am seeing that many of you are in agony over the needless torture of these millions of innocents. I want to remind you all who are suffering so much to remember your self care. I was a mess my first few years as a vegan, from compassion fatigue. It is debilitating, and also not necessarily productive. Ask yourself this: Have I become vegan? Yes you have, which is a great thing, every day. Do I wish to minimize suffering in the world? Most vegans are driven by this. So please remember to do your very best to overcome your own suffering. Please don't reward such a great and natural evolutionary deed of peace, becoming vegan, with the punishment of torment and sorrow; be fair to yourself. This state of mind is draining and you can go mad from grief. Yes for many of us this is normal and it may not seem right to feel any other way considering the horror. I think of suffering and peace( I will use peace as the word that means the opposite and absence of suffering) in a pie chart. Which side of this chart are you on? Imagine if all the vegans were on the suffering side. Now imagine all the vegans on the peace side. If you remove yourself from the suffering side and place yourself on the peace side, the suffering side shrinks and the peace side grows. Can you still do everything you do to promote the end of animal slavery without being in a state of misery? You can and I believe you must. Peace
So very well stated, and quality thinking from a noble soul. Blessings!
I don't understand how people find it taboo to eat dogs and cats, yet are fine with eating other animals. We've been socialised to believe that certain animals exist to be eaten. It's so hypocritical.
John Gable Smith I eat all
Well, dogs and cats have been raised at the beginning for practical reasons like helping sheperds, defend goods and humans, catching mice, saving humans.
Others animals like pigs are raised only for their flesh and usually can't help humans.
Furthermore, dogs and cats are pets and pigs, cows, sheeps aren't.
But for centuries even in Europe people used to eat also dogs and cats.

@@brabssmaster186 What do you mean?
Laurent Faurite fax means facts
I can now officially say I've helped someone to shrug off their indoctrination and become vegan. My physics/chemistry teacher went vegan this past June. I'm so happy!
Veganism is also indoctrination.
Laurent Faurite
Lmao okay mate. Living in line with my morals is indoctrination? Refraining from supporting industries that cause harm to person, animal, and environment is indoctrination? You need to go back to school mate. I think you learned the wrong definition of indoctrination.
@@indigodragon0613 Accept the fact that everybody don't have your same morals.
Definition, for Oxford dictionary, is the process of teaching a person or group to accept a set of beliefs uncritically
Laurent Faurite Uncritically, huh? I actually criticize my own morals quite regularly. I question myself to see if anything has changed and why. I do believe that is not indoctrination. Also, I’m curious. Do you think that it’s okay if certain people believe things like murder, rape, and abuse are morally acceptable? I’m curious to see where your acceptance of different morals ends. There are just some things that society has collectively agreed are not morally acceptable. And they were not always seen as such. So I’m curious.
@@indigodragon0613 I think that I don't have to force my values on other people.
For my morality these things are not OK but a person can think in a different way.
The only important thing is that even if people don't consider these acts immorals they respect the law.

💪🏼🌱👍🏼🙏🏼🌎❤️
My heart aches. The people who film and bring it to the masses are heroes. I would fall apart.
I just watched Dominion today and it inspired me to go vegan again, very powerful film.
Went vegan 7mos. ago. This was hard to watch...couldn't look at it all! The music is beautiful.
That intro broke my heart.
Watching the trailer for this documentary makes me want off this planet! We have to keep focused on the amazing change we are witnessing! I'm proud to be vegan 💚🌱
I've been vegan for 35 years now and the only thing that makes my days a bit more optimistic is that there are more and more vegans every day
Just watched the intro in tears. Brand new vegetarian of two weeks following a family visit to an organic farm. I watched my daughter stroke a lamb to sleep before my husband took us to the freezers to stock up on meat. Something clicked and I will never go back to eating animal flesh. I feel so much happier in myself, I have no idea how or why. If only I had discovered the truth sooner...
I'm going to share this, but I can't watch anymore. I feel what they feel, and experience what they experience. I've seen things that are in my mind that will never go away. I get extremely depressed if I even think about any kind of animal suffering. :(
YESSSSS I can't stop watching this trailer! So amazing!
I had to quit after 3 minutes......disgusting! My heart is saddened by the way humanity treats animals.

It must have been even more difficult to make the film than to watch. Thank-you to all my vegan family out there.
Vegan Bear I can’t even imagine. The hundreds of hours of footage they had to comb through of the most devastating and barbaric acts. Let alone sneaking into these places and witnessing the violence firsthand. Thank God for the activists who are displaying to the world in unflinching detail what goes in these places. The impact is immeasurable.
Nothing will pain my soul.. As much as this..the pain I feel inside my chest throat and stomach.. Please world.. Change.. Quickly..
Fantastic interview ❤️
Thank you so much - Robbie
Great great video, my wife and I and my 2 boys started eating plant based 4 months ago. The best decision we made, feel great. God bless keep up the fantastic work your doing.
❤️❤️❤️ I will watch, bawling all the way through.
Me and my wife became vegan. we never felt that good before...I'm so mad at my school and college. The doctrine of killing and eating animals is so brutal and uncivilized..
I'm an ecologist. I'll do my best to spread the awareness.

Thank you so much for all what you do,

Excuse me, whats the name of that beautiful song?
That was one of the most powerful trailers I've ever seen. How it starts out with wide shots looking at these industries almost like organisms until you get to the individuals and the shots of their eyes. It's just fantastic editing (Im a film person).
I want to watch. I'd have to wait til it's free or on UA-cam.
As well as not buying/eating animal foods we can help them by visualising them free, happy and in nature. These films are crucial to wake people up but we must 'see' an animal compassionate world before it can happen. Energetically speaking, what we focus on grows.
Focusing on their suffering sends them more of that same energy. It;s a fine balance between the need of exposing the truth and then collectively intending and seeing/feeling that all this horror this is in the bin of the past. I hope people see what i'm trying to say.
It's just too much to bear seeing them suffer. So i countereact it by imagining a world where we humans only take care of animals. Every change starts with an intention. Collectively we are powerful.
I agree, positivity is always better. It sounds you mean like The Law of Attraction? :)
I'm all for it, but most people wouldn't go vegan because they saw a happy cow on a lawn. For example, I'm living on the countryside, so I'm always seeing farm animals outside and that didn't made me go vegan. That never made me rethink why we eat animals.
Except I already couldn't and wouldn't eat rabbit, sheep and goat meat as a child because my family kept them and slaughtered them for food and since I saw where there came from, I helped feeding them, so I had a connection to them and I couldn't bring myself to eat them. But I ate pork, chicken, beef etc.
I never had this connection with a random cow I saw somewhere. And most people don't. Only when I saw what I never saw before, how brutally animals are treated and slaughtered, that made me go vegan. There are "happy" farm animals all over commercials, promoting how good the milk from this cow is etc. (that hurt even typing it) so as you might know we get all brainwashed by this, who would overthink where this cow really comes from without at least a piece of information that it could be different? For people to wake up we need to show them the truth and make them overthink everything they believed in.
After seeing this documentary I hope everyone goes vegan! I’ve been vegan for over 20 years because of Peta! Personally I don’t know how anyone could go back to eating animals after watching this film!
Chris Delforce - what a resilient, dedicated, knowledgeable and giving man. Such strength of character. A pioneer who has made and is continuing to make so many more activists and provided for a platform on which Anonymous for the Voiceless could begin. 'Lucent' opened my eyes to the immense suffering , the way it really is and it provided me with the knowledge to share with others. And this is the starting point. Chris has opened the gates for huge changes to come. Thank you to Plant Based News for sharing and interviewing Chris. I think the numbness Chris talks about is a defence mechanism for self preservation.
Thank you for making this films...you are amazing
Vero W agreed
Awwwww this is toooooo sad! Couldn’t bring myself to watch it all. I now feel sick! I have recently become a vegan and I Stand by this 💖💜💙
Today i am headed to the International Animal Rights Convention in Luxembourg to spend time with other vegans and discuss our Anonymous for the Voiceless group here in Trier, Germany as well as the fact that we are about to kickstart Germany's very 1st Pig 🐷 Save at a slaughterhouse in Wittlich, Germany. ✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼 I show LUCENT to many people while I am in the Cube of Truth and it is astonishing how effective it is in waking them up from their cognitively dissonant slumber!
Thank you so much for everything you do for the animals ♥️
I know that AFV have LUCENT available to download so we can save/play it during activism, will DOMINION also he available for download?
Chris Delforce is such a bright soul. Thank God for people like him.
It's films like this that make me hate the backlash effect the most. There is so much information, footage, data, etc. behind a simple concept of removing animal products from food but very few will actually dive in to it. Even the non-vegans that do watch it tend to spend the whole time calling it propaganda and saying they don't care " cuz bacon tho, intelligence tho, deserted island tho, grass fed tho, etc." instead of actually considering the actual victims point of view.
At this rate i want to start making a website where i can just host all of the information and films regarding the vegan argument (unless there is one already). At the very least to be able to point to something when carnists mention "baseless religion" and i can just send them to the wall of (peer-reviewed) information.
I just can’t. 😭 I’ve been transitioning to vegan for the past few months after being vegetarian for several years. I’ve managed to get through a few movies but I just can’t bear seeing this suffering any longer. I pray documentation and awareness will continue to wake up more and more people. What we do to innocent animals is horrific.
Just bought my tickets for the Toronto premiere! I'm excited to show my support and also terrified of what i'm going to see.
Wondering what the song is in the trailer. It's really beautiful

Wow💔 great film. Let's all keep doing what we're doing🤘🏻 all sorts of activism. Veganism is fkn rising🍃❤🌍🐏
I'm so glad to be vegan but my heart is breaking for the suffering of animals on such a massive scale. I'm going to start campaigning 💗🇦🇺💚🌈
Take part in your local activist group: anonymousforthevoiceless.org
Janet Donald that’s what documentaries like Dominion are for. To shock people out of lethargy and instill a sense of urgency. The scope of suffering is so vast, but there are plenty of people who are as horrified as you, and will do anything to help lessen it. Activism is a great place to start.
We as humans always believe that to anything there must be a usage, we ask ourselves how much value do animals have to us, but please have some humbleness... why not live on this earth and being grateful for the beauty it has and just treating the whole earth with it`s earthlings with love and respect... gosh I wish such a world would come, this would be paradise
Thanks for helping me become vegan and spreading the light that I need to see
Jesus that intro was heartbreaking.
In tears... such a terrible thing that you all are bringing to light. Thank you all so much!!
It is horrible how these beautiful animals are slaughtered for food. I am so thankful i stopped eating animals three years ago. My one regret is not doing it much sooner.
well you pay for it to happen by buying soy products that is what they feed them
Dominion mi je slomio srce. Postala sam 15.5.2022. Veganka. I to cu biti do kraja svog zivota. Oduvijek sam voljela zivotinje, samo mi je pogled bio zamracen. Mir i ljubav svim zivim bicima na planeti!
Man (when he is a North American Indian) gouges out his prisoner's eyes; when he is King John, with a nephew to render untroublesome, he uses a red-hot iron; when he is a religious zealot dealing with heretics in the Middle Ages, he skins his captive alive and scatters salt on his back; in the first Richard's time he shuts up a multitude of Jew families in a tower and sets fire to it; in Columbus's time he captures a family of Spanish Jews and (but that is not printable; in our day in England a man is fined ten shillings for beating his mother nearly to death with a chair, and another man is fined forty shillings for having four pheasant eggs in his possession without being able to satisfactorily explain how he got them). Of all the animals, man is the only one that is cruel. He is the only one that inflicts pain for the pleasure of doing it. It is a trait that is not known to the higher animals. The cat plays with the frightened mouse; but she has this excuse, that she does not know that the mouse is suffering. The cat is moderate -- unhumanly moderate: she only scares the mouse, she does not hurt it; she doesn't dig out its eyes, or tear off its skin, or drive splinters under its nails -- man-fashion; when she is done playing with it she makes a sudden meal of it and puts it out of its trouble. Man is the Cruel Animal. He is alone in that distinction. Man is the only Patriot. He sets himself apart in his own country, under his own flag, and sneers at the other nations, and keeps multitudinous uniformed assassins on hand at heavy expense to grab slices of other people's countries, and keep them from grabbing slices of his. And in the intervals between campaigns, he washes the blood off his hands and works for the universal brotherhood of man, with his mouth.
Man is the organize Religious Animal. He is the only organized Religious Animal. He is the only animal that has the True Religion -- several of them. He is the only animal that loves his neighbor as himself, and cuts his throat if his theology isn't straight. He has made a graveyard of the globe in trying his honest best to smooth his brother's path to happiness and heaven. He was at it in the time of the Caesars, he was at it in Mahomet's time, he was at it in the time of the Inquisition, he was at it in France a couple of centuries, he was at it in England in Mary's day, he has been at it ever since he first saw the light, he is at it today in Crete (as per the telegrams quoted above), he will be at it somewhere else tomorrow. The higher animals have no religion. And we are told that they are going to be left out, in the Hereafter. I wonder why? It seems questionable taste.
Man is the Reasoning Animal. Such is the claim. I think it is open to dispute. Indeed, my experiments have proven to me that he is the Unreasoning Animal. Note his history, as sketched above. It seems plain to me that whatever he is he is not a reasoning animal. His record is the fantastic record of a maniac. I consider that the strongest count against his intelligence is the fact that with that record back of him he blandly sets himself up as the head animal of the lot: whereas by his own standards he is the bottom one.
In truth, man is incurably foolish. Simple things which the other animals easily learn, he is incapable of learning. Among my experiments was this. In an hour I taught a cat and a dog to be friends. I put them in a cage. In another hour I taught them to be friends with a rabbit. In the course of two days I was able to add a fox, a goose, a squirrel and some doves. Finally a monkey. They lived together in peace; even affectionately.
Next, in another cage I confined an Irish Catholic from Tipperary, and as soon as he seemed tame I added a Scotch Presbyterian from Aberdeen. Next a Turk from Constantinople; a Greek Christian from Crete; an Armenian; a Methodist from the wilds of Arkansas; a Buddhist from China; a Brahman from Benares. Finally, a Salvation Army Colonel from Wapping. Then I stayed away two whole days. When I came back to note results, the cage of Higher Animals was all right, but in the other there was but a chaos of gory odds and ends of turbans and fezzes and plaids and bones -- not a specimen left alive. These Reasoning Animals had disagreed on a theological detail and carried the matter to a Higher Court.
One is obliged to concede that in true loftiness of character, Man cannot claim to approach even the meanest of the Higher Animals. It is plain that he is constitutionally incapable of approaching that altitude; that he is constitutionally afflicted with a Defect which must make such approach forever impossible, for it is manifest that this defect is permanent in him, indestructible, ineradicable.
I find this Defect to be the Moral Sense. He is the only animal that has it. It is the secret of his degradation. It is the quality which enables him to do wrong. It has no other office. It is incapable of performing any other function. It could never hate been intended to perform any other. Without it, man could do no wrong. He would rise at once to the level of the Higher Animals.
Since the Moral Sense has but the one office, the one capacity -- to enable man to do wrong -- it is plainly without value to him. It is as valueless to him as is disease. In fact, it manifestly is a disease. Rabies is bad, but it is not so bad as this disease. Rabies enables a man to do a thing, which he could not do when in a healthy state: kill his neighbor with a poisonous bite. No one is the better man for having rabies: The Moral Sense enables a man to do wrong. It enables him to do wrong in a thousand ways. Rabies is an innocent disease, compared to the Moral Sense. No one, then, can be the better man for having the Moral Sense. What now, do we find the Primal Curse to have been? Plainly what it was in the beginning: the infliction upon man of the Moral Sense; the ability to distinguish good from evil; and with it, necessarily, the ability to do evil; for there can be no evil act without the presence of consciousness of it in the doer of it.
And so I find that we have descended and degenerated, from some far ancestor (some microscopic atom wandering at its pleasure between the mighty horizons of a drop of water perchance) insect by insect, animal by animal, reptile by reptile, down the long highway of smirchless innocence, till we have reached the bottom stage of development -- nameable as the Human Being. Below us -- nothing. .
