    TODAY'S VIDEO:
    I headed to a food festival in London to ask the visitors some thought-provoking questions about the dishes that they intended on buying, including asking them whether they would be willing to kill the animals that they're about to eat themselves.

    The way you ask questions, the way you don't make them feel like they are losing, the way you encourage them to find the compassion already present within them, the way you create a safe space for the people to open up and really think is.. Inspiring beyond words. I really wish to become like you someday so I can educate better. You are my idol, you are my role model. :")
    Ed, thank you for existing and being who you are.
    Tons of love from India. ❤🍀

      I think it's because it's become so normalised and how there's more information. So people aren't as on the defence and obviously there's no excuse to not turn vegan Unless you literally have allergies to food that makes if hard to do that then that's fine.

      It's damage control. His critics said that he's skinny, so he's working out now to show he's not. They said that he wears really thick clothing (even in not-so-cold weather), so he took his coat off now. Someone exposed his real name on TH-cam (i.e., Edward Gaunt), which was kept secret, and now it's not anymore. He's a snake-oil salesman; an actor, who discreetly keeps on adjusting his image to avoid suspicion/exposure and to carry out his propaganda as efficiently as he can.

    I remember simply typing ”vegan” into youtube because i wanted to explore the arguments and see if there was anything to it. I’d watched cowspiracy about a year before and went vegetarian afterwards, but you know.. cheese... I watched what the health also after a couple of months of being vegetarian and i was like ”dude, maybe the cheese isn’t worth it”. A lot of what they said just stuck in my head and changed my mindset after a while! ”Milk is baby cow growth fluid” and ”eggs are made to run a baby chick for 21 days”, ”cheese is coagulated cow pus” 🤮 and so one day i felt inspired and just went on youtube and found one of your videos where you were speaking in a lecture hall. it just hit home to me! I knew what i needed to do💚 so over the next couple of weeks as a baby vegan I watched like EVERYTHING out there: earthlings, dominion, your documentary land of hope and Glory, lucent, some swedish docs, from farm to fridge, forks over knives, cowspiracy (again) etc. I also binge watched both yours and Joeys channels (and some food channels for inspiration). Hands down, going vegan is best desicion I ever made! It is like i put on a pair of glasses and now i see the truth! I could never go back. Animal products are pure violence and exploitation 💔 love your channel btw, it teaches us all great ways to talk to others about veganism! Thank you!!

Do you have friends that are still eating meat? giving you their reasons like they have to for health? I have compassion for them and love, but if I dont have proper self care in the morning I am super triggered, Their ignorance and lack of love for animals (unconciousLY) Really is starting to way me down. excuses hurt my heart, Like That hurt is me wishing I can speak FOR the animals, do you run into that struggle with friends and or family?

      Those documentaries really opened my eyes too, especially when organisations actively turned a blind eye to studies and recent findings all in the name of profit. I've been fully vegan for 3 months now and I've never felt better my body is functioning how it should when it didn't before. While fruits, vegetables and vegan options in general, are available, I will remain vegan. There is no need or reason for me to consume animal products and therefore I won't. Like Ed says, it all comes down to necessity.

So the question isn't "is it natural ?" but "Is it moral (to exploit and kill other sentient beings when it's not a necessity) ?"

      So...
      1. Please remember that SOME vegans are dishonest etc etc hacks. Oftentimes but not always, the least logical and most obnoxious of any given group are the most vocal, and that is what people see from the outside, which is unfortunate, and probably the cause of most of the world's problems. 95% of my friends, coworkers, co-volunteers and family are not vegans and not vegetarians, and they do not have giant issues with me nor I with them. Same goes for religious and political stuff. You know? The good people are there in every group, and they're probably the majority or close to it. Just gotta weed through em.
      2. Well, yeah, I know I could google it. My point was that you're the one who made the claim, so it's on you to substantiate it, not me.
      3. You're asking me to give you evidence that dairy is bad for your health. I never even mentioned the word dairy and am not sure how it became a focal point. I never said dairy was unhealthy, and frankly, I couldn't care less; health concerns aren't the reason I don't consume dairy products.
      4. Maybe that's another distinction people need to know about (this is referencing #1 and #3): yes, there are crazed vegans who are going to try to prove to you with no real facts how poisonous a meat and dairy diet is, etc etc etc, just as there are meat and dairy eaters who hell-bent on trying to convince you, again, factlessly, how ill and weak and crumpled in a ball vegans are or will be soon. Those are the health-focused ones. And from that angle, you're right -- there are not long-term studies about the health of veganism, so it's not proven that it's beneficial. But it's also not proven that it's harmful, and it also doesn't explain all the people in hospitals right now -- are they all vegans, since we're the ones who have such poor health? Makes you wonder. But I digress.
      Then there are people like me. I've always been a healthy eater all my life -- when I was a meat and dairy eater, as a vegetarian, and now as a vegan. So I'm not worried about that aspect. At all. My sole motivation for eliminating animal products from my diet is about my relationship to nature. It's very personal. And there are a lot of people out there like me. We are on a huge spectrum, please understand that. We're not all assholes, we're not all interested in debating 24/7. We just don't want to eat animal stuff.

There is no right or wrong, no matter how you play it out to be, so the fact that you try to put those who don’t choose your lifestyle down is pathetic and ignorant. You give other sane vegans a bad name. That lady is well spoken, intelligent, and probably more compassionate than you.

    • @papparocket
      @papparocket 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@AlbanianRS I'm sorry if I came across as bashing her. That was not my intent. Everybody has cognitive dissonances. Often they are subtle. All I was trying to say is that this lady understood and clearly elicited the ethical issues with consuming animals for food, yet at the same time offered up nearly all of the standard rationalizations necessary for her to ignore those issues in her personal life in order for her to continue to consume animal flesh and excretions.
      Each of Ed's videos is a master's class in the use of the Socratic Method to help people articulate explicitly what they already know, if only peripherally or unconsciously, with regard to the ethics of eating sentient beings for taste/pleasure/habit/culture/etc. But humans are great at rationalizing their actions and so struggle to deny to themselves the truth of the words that just came out of their own mouths. That is cognitive dissonance. All I was saying is that such dissonance is seldom as clear as it is in this case. And since she was so clear and articulate about the ethical issues surrounding the consumption of animals, I think it quite likely that she will reflect further on what she said to Ed and her high intelligence will require her to fully integrate her personal morals with her actions and she will eventually become vegan.

    Hi! I need your help, I tried having the conversation of veganism and the ethical reasons with my roommates, and tried to bring in some good points you also address in lots of your videos (the taste/life choice, why we do not need animal products, etc). However, when I explain that we are disconnected from the animal that is on our plate and the animals in the slaughterhouses, they argue they do not feel responsible for the cruelty that is inflicted upon those animals, as they ‘can’t help it anyway, I cannot change the world alone so why would I try’. In addition, they start talking about problems in Syria, or the healthcare problem or poverty in our country, etc. What would be good (counter)arguments to make them realize they are in fact contributing to the exploitation of animals, and what could help them realize they could start solving one problem by becoming vegan? I do want to stay calm and collected and not freak out, but it’s hard for me as I’m very passionate about it. Thank you!
