vegan artist w/ a degree in medicine, a rescue dog, & radical opinions apparently
Though I can't confirm or deny it, I'm seeing a few people on r/vegan say that they're being banned from r/leftist for posting about animal oppression. This is the stupidest shit, but it comes with the territory of being on the frontier of thought and public discourse. We fight on.

Also, it's v easy to blame the Right for this anti-science bs they've been at for the last decade (more?), but I wonder if it could have been done w/o the hippie idiots pushing herbals and astrology for so long.

There is def still a non-trivial amt of lib dumdums pushing shit on "intuition" smh

Late to the party, but felt like typing today.

I thought the one good thing abt this era was that Kimmel and LS-version Colbert were going off the air. This liberal fake ass shit bores me to death. Couldn't believe ppl were talking so much abt Kimmel when so much more important shit is happening

+400k lives brought into this world - for the sole purpose of KILLING them in the name of people's gustatory pleasure - were wiped out by the flu because they're incarcerated in disgusting, horrid conditions.

If you think this shouldn't happen to humans or pets, why other animals? Why not go vegan?

I know sports in the US are very right-wing/center-right coded overall, but it's such a bummer that both NBA and Stanley Cup champions wear military-inspired shield emblems. And what's worse is that the overtly military-inspired of the two is such a better design.

Bro-y dude asked me about the assassination attempt in Colombia, and after hearing my concise but sober accounting of neoliberalism, violence, elite impunity and political continuity, he responds "They always want to kill the peacekeepers - him, MLK, Trump, Michael Jackson..."

Amazing how Defense Forces can launch so many Pre-emptive Strikes.

Obviously the state doesn't believe that "violence is never the answer" when it arms other nations, terrorists, opposing sides of the same conflict, and its own citizens, or when it assassinates people speaking most loudly for NON-violence.

If I'd been alive in 1517, first of all I would have been like "Martin put on a fucking costume and get some candy you fucking wet blanket it's October 31st" but then I would have been like "deeds don't matter? so much for protestant work ethic!"

If people who identify as moderates are more willing to accept the actions of the far-right than they are the far-left, then they're probably more right wing than moderate, aren't they?
March 28, 2025 at 7:34 PM
Per many scholars in fields studying the subject, we're nearing full on fascism. Per our greatest thinkers of the last ~100 years, all signs point to the same conclusion.

And what got us here, as ever, are the moderates capitulating to the far right, feeding the most vulnerable sheep to the wolves.

This is egregiously unacceptable, @washingtonpost.com.

Trump cannot do this. It's illegal. You know it! You say it!

And yet, you *still* give him the headline. This is journalistic malpractice, with democracy hanging in the balance.

PLEASE, if u r considering taking a non-human animal into your home, adopt one from a shelter!

Buying bred animals - u'v no doubt heard - perpetuates a cycle that pumps more animals into the shelter system where, per ASPCA, ~920,000 beings r killed annually (2019 data).

Local shelters here r FULL.

For anyone who doesn't already realize it, there's a thread that connects anti-racism, feminism, LGBTQIA+ advocacy, abolitionism, veganism, anti-imperialism, anti-ableism, leftist politics (socialism, anarchism, etc), indigenous rights advocacy, and probably more movements I'm forgetting to mention.

Watched "I'm Still Here" the night before last. Started reading Pedadogy of the Oppressed last night. Feel like a Caipirinha and raging against the machine over the wknd.

Obviously veganism isn't actually "radical" or "extreme." Not in the past (well-known vegans have existed in Asia and Europe for millennia), and certainly not in an era wherein many of us have access to fresh fruit/veg, or myriad options of "plant-based" meat alternatives for those transitioning.
March 13, 2025 at 4:46 PM
I feel like I say this all the time, but it bears repeating:

If you want a world with as little suffering as possible, you should cause as little suffering as you can in your world.

It starts with each one of us. Go vegan.

On another level, I'm amazed at how many ppl are still staunch supporters of either major american political party. They are one and the same. Good Cop and Bad Cop are both cops. ACAB.

The same goes for this talk of egg prices. They're missing the big picture. We don't need to buy eggs at all.

Per Wikipedia, ~7B male chicks are KILLED annually worldwide just for eggs.

Get your protein from plants (which don't have the capacity to feel mental or physical pain). Go vegan.

Ppl online are arguing over Trump and transgender mice experiments. But the real problem isn't the type of experiment - it's that humans are forcing sentient beings to be tortured and killed without their being able to consent to it. Per PETA, ~110M animals die in testing annually. Stop. Go vegan.

Apple destroys iOS typing functionality, only to suggest with every new release that it’s new and improved. Like Coke Classic after fumbling their new and improved recipe. So is the tactic of the incoming POTUS, smarmiest salesman of all, to sell u on a platform his own party took away (for a day!)
