Speciesism (Will not fail to dissapoint)
 

http://veg-tv.info/Earthlings

1.5 Hr long documentary on speciesism... the 5 ways in which animals serve us, the 5 ways in which we continue to contribute to the cruelest holocaust mankind will ever know.

I'll be honest, I got quite overwhelmed just within the first 10-15 minutes.

Just to make it plain and clear. I do eat meat and in no way am saying that we should be doing something great, or immediately to stop this. I'm just sharing this so that we might all be a little more educated and aware, if some of us aren't already.

ok. that was interesting. but i still gotta eat. what can you do about that?

and why did they use jaquein phoenix..what a douchebag.

eating isnt what this documentary about, its about the humane treatment of our resources, specifically animals. by abusing the process of mass producing animals as food, were slowly turning nature against us, and its made pretty evident if you watch the entire thing

watched the whole thing... thanks

the kosher thing was brutal

veg-tv.info, i'm not expecting a slant on this movie.

phoenix doesnt have the documentary voice. disappointed

id rather just not watch it and maintain the status quo. the tasty tasty status quo

The pet section hits close to home because I have a dog of my own.

I don't understand why that just because vegitables don't move and woof at us it is less cruel to eat them?

So it's better to beat on the retarded kid? Is that it?

On the contrary, I think we should eat less vegetables - give them more time to make us more oxygen....Makes more sense to me. Kill those that uses the same oxygen as we do. ROFL.

well, well, well. aren't we all just good and completely disgusted with ourselves now, hmmm?
my gf's parents run a vietnamese restaurant that is completely vegan. i think if it were more common to see vegetarian restaurants, the choice could be made much simpler.
i know in my short stint of vegetarianism, i didn't mind the actual lack of meat so much as the lack of variety for foods. i think i may try it again though

funny you should mention that. tests have actually proven that plants can in fact sense to a certain extent. quite dated tests, i might add

Damn man, Reality.

Cant believe they put the dog into the garbage truck and crush it. The hell man.

They are animals, not humans, so no need for humane treatment there. I really don't care how my Hamburger gets to me, as long as I can eat it.

No I have not watched the video, but I will tomorrow.

Can somone tell me why they cant put down cows, pigs, etc in a more humane way? Like...needles?
Cant they start the butchering after they are dead?

are you seriously asking why they cant poison cows that are going to be butchered and used for food?

I DONT know. Im not educated in killing animals. Im asking if there is a DIFFERENT way than butchering them so violently while they are alive.

Dont try to be a smartass and take it out of context. I didnt say anything about poisoning. If there is another way, then I would like to know.

there are multiple ways, i'm sure. these are the most cost efficient though. and when you're dealing in the slaughter of millions of animals, every penny counts. always the mighty dollar...

take a bow, my friend. take a bow

yeah..cause pulling a vegetable out of the ground isn't treating it as an inferior...

im all against animal abuse..but food is food.

holy shit at 8:10..is that macdonald's farm?

^^ that was sarcasm, i hope. or were you seriously trying to justify not being vegetarian with that defense?
the torches to the pig's skin was interesting though. did you know that pigs skin is the most similar to humans? lotta testing done with those torches

shit i watched about 20 min then it just got depressing
the people who do those jobs really must have no heart or get paid big bones and dont care
the dog getting crushed in the garbage truck is srsly wtf, the whole video really disgusts me even though thats reality :(

hmm
interesting

im gonna go make myself a burger

i'm pretty sure they get paid next to nothing to do it. which really only leaves one other reason to pursue such an occupation...

man, when i saw the garbage truck, I was like no way, they aren't doing that. . .and then . .. .WTF???? NOOOO U BASTARDS!!!!!!!!!!!
