You bring up an interesting point. I think they touched on it in the video, but what you're talking about is animal welfare (killing them in the least painful way possible) vs rights (not killing them at all). When you include 'not killing them' as an option, a bullet still seems immoral imo.
@@Jai-707 Veganism existed for countless years before the foundation of the Vegan Society or the coining of the word Vegan. Check out Abu al-‘Ala’ al-Ma’arri's historic poem written in the 10th century.

These people probably don't realise the amount of rainforest that's destroyed, in order to plant some of the stuff that makes their alternatives to milk. Like almonds, soya and other similar things.

I love meat. I respect what the farmers and meat processors do for us to eat. These videos haven't changed how I feel about food, but I have more respect for how others feel about food and for those who produce the food we eat.
@@blacktoaster7101 you mean, if someone were to eat me? Like an alligator or a shark or another creature? Yeah, I can imagine that, and I know I would taste great, just like the meat and food I eat tastes great. That's why those of us who eat meat eat meat, because it tastes great.
Keep researching sentience. Keep researching how to grow meat in labs and meat alternatives. When will people successfully breed an unequivocally intelligent and sentient animal to prove this point? When will tge human species be tired of being alone in the universe.
we are al cattle in the eyes of these animals. when i was a kid our grand father bought us a little sheep to care for and then to be slaughtered and eaten. it was horriblly beautiful. also we were made to care for litlle chickens.

@@FallenCarnation No, I mean sapient, they are also proven to have their own seperate lines of thought outside of normal plant life. Indeed, many plants have the capability of not only feeling, but understanding why they feel. Of course, no scientist would tell you this, they are often wrong.

@@waladoopa2667I'm not talking about the banking system. But speaking of banks, that's where farmers and animal aggribuisness puts their money, including billions in subsidies every year in order for the continued torture and slaughter of 2trillion animals per year. We can dent their profits by not participating in paying for that cruelty on our behalves. Then that's less money going into their literal piggy banks. Is that how you're trying to link banking with meat and dairy etc?
the bigest problem is that there are just to many humans........so anyways i was going to publish this paper on cannibalisms and the positive impacts it would have on the environment.
Funnily enough, I'm actually completely open to the idea of eating vegan alternatives so long as they're tasty. However, protests like this LITERALLY makes me want to eat meat as a counter protest.
If people singing in a way you don't like makes you want to consume an animal that was tortured and killed on your behalf, then you never cared about animals in the first place.
@@Assassin99584 you've written this line on quite a few threads so it's you with the buzzwords. You just don't want to know that animal agriculture is responsible for 2trillion+ killings a year and a ton of environmental problems and that you can stop contributing to that by going vegan.
It is up to the people to decide what to eat..... Eating meat doesn't mean that you are a animal hating person. To all vegans, if you are wearing a leather belt or shoe, you have indirectly contributed to the death of an animal for leather.
Yup, there can be hypocrisy there. Though the majority of vegans don't wear animal products either. Plant based eating is where I see a lot of focus, separate the morality from it and focus on reducing meat. Not everybody wants to quit meat fully, and some groups don't have access to nutritional alternatives (e.g. food deserts, underdeveloped nations).
It’s up to me if I want to abuse dogs or not. Just because I like kicking dogs doesn’t make me a bad person, and just because you don’t kick dogs doesn’t make you better than me. And dogs would die in the wild anyway.
I’m pretty sure I’m gonna get backlashed, but I just don’t believe why people should agree with this. Humans shouldn’t eat just plants. Let me get one thing out of the way, Herbivores and Vegans are definitely different things. Herbivores always eat plants, while vegans may have had meat before they actually switched to being vegan. Anyways, humans require meats and plants to survive. Meats have a huge amount of protein, which can help muscle and tissue development. While plants do have many good attributes, I believe meats are much better for development. Many of these animals we get our meats from are livestock. That means we will continuously get meats from them and they will most likely never go extinct. These people feel bad for the animals, when in reality, there are millions and millions of them and it’s almost impossible for the livestock to ever experience extinction. Facts, over feelings.
I've been vegan since I was 26, I'm now 51, haven't been to the doctors for anything except some virus I picked up on holiday which was the first time I've ever needed medicine. I know plenty of other vegans who have been vegan longer than me and are also incredibly healthy so I am not convinced by your argument that we need to eat meat. I am fairly fit, you can't see me in the video climbing a tree, but you can hear it! I'm the older guy on the middle slot in the video. I hope you don't consider this "backlash" as I'm just referring to my own anecdotal evidence as to my fitness. However I think if you google you'll find plenty of old people who are healthy and don't eat meat or dairy, I think you could go further and say that meat and dairy are actually bad for people, plenty of science to support that position.
@@Assassin99584 Fun fact: then you'll be fascinated to learn that vitamin B12 is not available in the food of most livestock nowadays, so it has to be added to their diet as a supplement, and that's how nonvegans get your B12. If you want to get your B12 more directly, you'd be best off going vegan and taking the supplement directly yourself.
But, it is not choice based, they are compulsive only masking it with mild surface behavior which is superficial. Animal love is for the eco systems and their habitat and the efforts to change the wild animals to become farm/domesticated through different programs is where it should be opposed not for domestic animals which are farm based and are used for eating. It is the choice of people if they eat meat, or go vegan.
@@nicolasceresoli9121 The official definition of veganism includes the phrase "as far as practicable and possible" which basically means that sometimes you don't have an option. Vaccines and other medication fall under this. It's a situation, like many others, in which you have to fight the system while participating in it.
@@PeacewithRhys you can't fight against medical testing system that already works better because "emotions". Animal testing is justified as long as it doesn't involve cosmetic testing since that falls into a less necessary concept.

But the fact they do this means thousands of people who will never go to these places will hear the screams. Some people may cut out animal-products as a result. I doubt the activists enjoy being there.
The squealing to death which your money pays for.
Unfortunately it’s beyond the comprehension of individuals like you!!
It's a place of food.

As an occasional hunter, the sound of those pigs in fear, was surprisingly daunting. But a bullet is definitely more humane than gas, pretty damn sure. Poor pigs.
You bring up an interesting point. I think they touched on it in the video, but what you're talking about is animal welfare (killing them in the least painful way possible) vs rights (not killing them at all). When you include 'not killing them' as an option, a bullet still seems immoral imo.

Veganism is the best way
And steak is the tastiest
Veganism is promoting western Culture
The classics also appreciated a nice peppercorn steak accompanied by a glass of wine
@@Jai-707 Veganism existed for countless years before the foundation of the Vegan Society or the coining of the word Vegan. Check out Abu al-‘Ala’ al-Ma’arri's historic poem written in the 10th century. Vegans who ignore these foundations suck, of course, but recognition of the rights of animals crosses continents and millennia.
@@Jai-707 Veganism dates back to 600BC if I'm not mistaken, and can be found in some of the oldest cultures in Asia. Check out Jainism.
No kiling of animals
These people probably don't realise the amount of rainforest that's destroyed, in order to plant some of the stuff that makes their alternatives to milk. Like almonds, soya and other similar things. There's a reason why we eat meat. We've eaten it for thousands of years without any problems. They can be vegan if they want but don't criticise people who arent.
Love your work ….
So sad
Thanks The Guardian for this awareness series...we should know the background of every food we eat and cruelty behind that
I like eating meat thou
The standard of living in the UK is too high, the crowds of young loafers are going crazy.

I love meat. I respect what the farmers and meat processors do for us to eat. These videos haven't changed how I feel about food, but I have more respect for how others feel about food and for those who produce the food we eat.
You too are an excellent advert for veganism!
You talk about "meat" and "food". What do you think about the animals? Can you imagine being in their place?
@@blacktoaster7101 you mean, if someone were to eat me? Like an alligator or a shark or another creature? Yeah, I can imagine that, and I know I would taste great, just like the meat and food I eat tastes great. That's why those of us who eat meat eat meat, because it tastes great.
disgusting.
The craving to eat a grass-fed juicy steak and fill my B12 and animal protein needs right now...

Keep researching sentience. Keep researching how to grow meat in labs and meat alternatives. When will people successfully breed an unequivocally intelligent and sentient animal to prove this point? When will tge human species be tired of being alone in the universe.
Newsflash... the ‘unequivocally intelligent and sentient’ animals are here already!!
Eat insects Instead
we are al cattle in the eyes of these animals. when i was a kid our grand father bought us a little sheep to care for and then to be slaughtered and eaten. it was horriblly beautiful. also we were made to care for litlle chickens.

Edgy so funny haha. What is your issue with vegans?
@@DM5550Z Did you know that all plants are sapient creatures that can feel pain and emotions
@@TheGateShallStand No evidence, try again. Every scientist disagrees, plants may only exhibit automatic reflexes to specific stimuli since they are living things. I am not against eating animals that are not conscious such as bivalves though.
@@TheGateShallStand You mean sentient. Only a few species aside from humans are sapient and they are all animals.
@@FallenCarnation No, I mean sapient, they are also proven to have their own seperate lines of thought outside of normal plant life. Indeed, many plants have the capability of not only feeling, but understanding why they feel.
Of course, no scientist would tell you this, they are often wrong.

@@Assassin99584 For me, was the realization that animals are individuals that experience life similar to us.

@@rickysandwich whether there’s need or not is irrelevant as need doesn’t dictate actions anywhere in life and that doesn’t take away from the fact it’s objectively beneficial

You'll note flying avocados halfway round the world is just fine by the bourgeoisie.
No, the bourgeoisie eat meat like carnivores, except with fancy utensils. It's hippies and young people who are going vegan.
The bourgeoisie are scoffing down steaks and every other meat available to them.
You CAN be vegan and not eat avocados.
I thought it was mostly non-vegans buying avocados. Thanks!
When I bought lamb imported half way around the world nobody cared, now that I'm vegan suddenly the hyporthical avocados I dont even eat are my fault.
Go vegan😊😊😊💚💚💚

Stop telling me what I can and cannot eat!
who?
Why don't you lobby Boris to invest money in a meat substitute that looks and tastes 99% like real meat, instead of guilt-tripping your viewers into getting rid of meat entirely?
Why should anyone do that? If you’re so morally and ethically bankrupt that you cannot find it in yourself to make compassionate choices, then you’re the problem!!
It’s not guilt tripping. It may feel like that, but reality is harsh and we ought to improve.

@@waladoopa2667I'm not talking about the banking system. But speaking of banks, that's where farmers and animal aggribuisness puts their money, including billions in subsidies every year in order for the continued torture and slaughter of 2trillion animals per year. We can dent their profits by not participating in paying for that cruelty on our behalves. Then that's less money going into their literal piggy banks. Is that how you're trying to link banking with meat and dairy etc?
Well there are much more humans on this planet, eat humans in that thought
All of em white middle class and cosseted
the bigest problem is that there are just to many humans........so anyways i was going to publish this paper on cannibalisms and the positive impacts it would have on the environment.
I will not eat bugs you globalists
Bugs aren’t vegan idiot
But you’re already eating bugs.
lol who hurt u?
You would be hard pressed to find a vegan who is calling for humans to start eating bugs.
Vegans don't eat bugs.
If people had to hunt & gather.... there would be no obesity problem.
Fr. I hunt each season for my meat.
Funnily enough, I'm actually completely open to the idea of eating vegan alternatives so long as they're tasty. However, protests like this LITERALLY makes me want to eat meat as a counter protest.
Why? Why is this your reaction? I am asking seriously.
If people singing in a way you don't like makes you want to consume an animal that was tortured and killed on your behalf, then you never cared about animals in the first place.
@@dontnoable nice buzzwords hypocrite

It is up to the people to decide what to eat..... Eating meat doesn't mean that you are a animal hating person. To all vegans, if you are wearing a leather belt or shoe, you have indirectly contributed to the death of an animal for leather.
They are All morons
Yup, there can be hypocrisy there. Though the majority of vegans don't wear animal products either.
Plant based eating is where I see a lot of focus, separate the morality from it and focus on reducing meat. Not everybody wants to quit meat fully, and some groups don't have access to nutritional alternatives (e.g. food deserts, underdeveloped nations).
It’s up to me if I want to abuse dogs or not. Just because I like kicking dogs doesn’t make me a bad person, and just because you don’t kick dogs doesn’t make you better than me. And dogs would die in the wild anyway.
And one of ya self defined as 'celestina'.
Disgusting
@@leonardomattarmonteiro2824 you can’t force me to not kick dogs. Bye vegan.
You can not get rid of carbon. 0 carbon = 0 life
No one's trying to get rid of all the carbon?
I’m pretty sure I’m gonna get backlashed, but I just don’t believe why people should agree with this. Humans shouldn’t eat just plants. Let me get one thing out of the way, Herbivores and Vegans are definitely different things. Herbivores always eat plants, while vegans may have had meat before they actually switched to being vegan. Anyways, humans require meats and plants to survive. Meats have a huge amount of protein, which can help muscle and tissue development. While plants do have many good attributes, I believe meats are much better for development. Many of these animals we get our meats from are livestock. That means we will continuously get meats from them and they will most likely never go extinct. These people feel bad for the animals, when in reality, there are millions and millions of them and it’s almost impossible for the livestock to ever experience extinction. Facts, over feelings.
Humans don't require meat. The NHS agrees with this. Meat contains nothing unique, that you can't get another way.
I've been vegan since I was 26, I'm now 51, haven't been to the doctors for anything except some virus I picked up on holiday which was the first time I've ever needed medicine. I know plenty of other vegans who have been vegan longer than me and are also incredibly healthy so I am not convinced by your argument that we need to eat meat.
I am fairly fit, you can't see me in the video climbing a tree, but you can hear it! I'm the older guy on the middle slot in the video. I hope you don't consider this "backlash" as I'm just referring to my own anecdotal evidence as to my fitness. However I think if you google you'll find plenty of old people who are healthy and don't eat meat or dairy, I think you could go further and say that meat and dairy are actually bad for people, plenty of science to support that position.
the massive farm houses are methane grounds which propel climate change.
@@alfpressofficeruk2450 supplements aren’t replacement for food
@@Assassin99584 Fun fact: then you'll be fascinated to learn that vitamin B12 is not available in the food of most livestock nowadays, so it has to be added to their diet as a supplement, and that's how nonvegans get your B12. If you want to get your B12 more directly, you'd be best off going vegan and taking the supplement directly yourself.
But, it is not choice based, they are compulsive only masking it with mild surface behavior which is superficial. Animal love is for the eco systems and their habitat and the efforts to change the wild animals to become farm/domesticated through different programs is where it should be opposed not for domestic animals which are farm based and are used for eating. It is the choice of people if they eat meat, or go vegan.
funnily enough I think having a pet is odd, I don't know why you would want to own another creature.
Choosing not to support animal exploitation is godawful to you?
@@maomao180 hey, Vetard, did you got your vaccines? You can thank animal testing for that if you did.
@Han Boetes depends on what you define "perfection".
@@nicolasceresoli9121 The official definition of veganism includes the phrase "as far as practicable and possible" which basically means that sometimes you don't have an option. Vaccines and other medication fall under this. It's a situation, like many others, in which you have to fight the system while participating in it.
@@PeacewithRhys you can't fight against medical testing system that already works better because "emotions". Animal testing is justified as long as it doesn't involve cosmetic testing since that falls into a less necessary concept.
This is quite upsetting to see these animals going to slaughter, I'm so upset I'm only having half a pack of bacon tonight 🤣🤣🤣
