They profit from the unspeakable pain and suffering of billions of defenseless animals and they profit from making humans deathly ill from consuming their products.

So glad you are doing this important work.. my mum talks about you everyday and how much she admires you and your activism ..she became a vegetarian when she was a child , brought me up as a vegetarian and then became a vegan when she was seventy five, eight years ago when we both learnt the truth about the dairy and chicken industries ..sending you and the other animals at the sanctuary lots of love!
The amount of meat industry conspiracies that exist with damnable proof are absolutely amazing. This line of thought I think will help people understand why there should be boycotts of these businesses. Even if they could care less about anything else, this is heinous.
It's so crazy to actually see and witness these shady practices of the dairy and meat industry on a personal level. These past few days, a Wisconsin (my home state) senator, who is also very involved in the dairy and meat industry, is trying to have vegan products banned for using the word "dairy" on the product when saying that these products are dairy free. She says, and I am not joking, that "Wisconsin is a dairy state, we are very protective of our heritage", so, therefore, having dairy free products in Wisconsin is attack on our culture??? It honestly baffles me that she is claiming that vegan options are the manipulative ones. I just can't even put into words how insane this is to me.
They are fighting until the end to keep up the most evil and disgusting industry. That shows up they're violent and criminal. But vegans will win the fight❣️💪✌️💚

Burning cows alive? People...are so....I have no words. This kind of content triggers me so much, but thank you for doing it Ed. It's important to inform people.
The sad fact is that, people just conveniently and deliberately forget all about these incidents...Every person whom I discuss veganism with, ends the conversation with something along the lines of "I get what you're saying but I just don't care enough" after running out of all 'arguments' against veganism.
Ugh I hear you. I’ve been getting a lot of “I don’t mind that you’re vegan” crap, like what do you expect me to say, “I don’t mind you eating corpses and trashing the planet”? Can’t stand any of this bull crap anymore. 10+ years of being vegan and I’ve heard it all.
But don't forget, particular people need to eat certain things because their body can't handle certain foods, people tend to eat vegetables and fruits because their body can't handle meat and they get sick, some people tend to eat more meat because their body requires it, this comment isn't an excuse but it is something that shouldn't be thrown away and not be looked at.
@@Lammy2023 Yes, I understand, but those "need meat to survive" are a tiny percentage. BTW it isn't the meat they need, but the amount of b vitamins... huge difference there. I know this from personal experience. I use to think that way till 11 years ago I made a huge leap, due to laziness and curiosity. Found out it wasn't the meat I needed, but the proteins and B vitamins which I can get through duckweed, spinach, kale, and collard greens. Anyways lets say it is the meat they need... it is unfortunate there are people who don't need to be meat-eaters use that as an excuse so they don't need to try out the alternatives first to see. 🙄Very small percentage of humans need to consume meat at all. Very small percentage! It has to do with genetics. You can't tell me that 80% of the world population suffer from this rare genetic disorder of needing meat? 🙄🤔We aren't cats!!! People always finding excuse to continue these barbaric practices. Sorry but that whole needing meat is an excuse. Again, I use to be such individuals until I actually got tired of cleaning blood stains and dealing with horrible smells. My laziness lead me to being a vegetarian and focus more on plant alternatives. I properly will end up being vegan due to my gardening, since that makes one be more self reliant and stop relying on deadly industries that destroys life, including that of humans.
Just want to say thank you so much for all your hard work on these very informative videos! I have been vegan for many years now and always appreciate the opportunity to learn more and share with others. 💛
It is so sickening that there is so much ignorance, corruption and greed like you showed in these stories. I hope all the people involved will somehow see the light sooner and step away from the dark side. Thanks Ed for making this video, I always watch them with great interest.
Great work! Well done for exposing more gut curling corruption and cruelty of the meat and dairy industry. They should be brought to justice sooner rather than later.
This is so disgusting. Everything about that industry is disgusting. Yet this is still being seen as perfectly normal by the majority of people... It really makes me sad that some of my best friends and family members simply turn a blind eye to these gigantic problems, simply because they don't want to give up eating animal products. Even though they would be absolutely against it if they just took a look at it neutrally.
It's sad to see so much corruption and injustice in this world, not only in industries and but organizations which are suppose to be for justice. We have the power to root it out, to make things better, more than we realize.
The work you do is absolutely amazing. Everytime I watch a video of you I cry, get really depressed, mad, and then remember again why I went vegan almost a year ago. You've changed my life and vieuw on veganism and you're changing many more lives every day. I am so inspired by you. Thank you so much Ed.
Lol. Get ready for depression, malnourishment, brain fog, a decrease in your testosterone, muscle decay, your brain to slowly shrink, and a list of other stuff.
@@GarudaLegends I've been vegan for 3 years, have gained 7kg in muscles, by blood results are great, had a decrease in brain fog and my mental health is way better. You're saying stupid things to justify your unethical behaviour. I think you can do better than that ;) My blood test showed that I have very high iron (not dangerous yet) and very high testosterone. The last point is a bit concering, cause I'm pretty sure it will increase my hair loss, but that's a genetic thing. There are tons of studies on health on a vegan diet and it's safe, so get educated.
When I went vegan, I tried a lot of new recipies and cooked things I'd never heard of, I can recommend discovering new food. That way, you enjoyment for your food will become richer and it'll be more fun! :)
ed, I'm constantly trying to find better ways to discuss the importance of going vegan with the people around me, the work you do is absolutely amazing.
Hey, I love to cook as well! I just don't use meat in my cooking. No grudges with people in my family that do though; open, factual discussion is important!
In France it's even worse, it is now forbidden to name plant-based milks "milk", they must use another word. Also, the right created a huge controversy after a city council proposed to add a vegetarian option to canteen menus for the schools. the research for synthetical meat in laboratory has legally been stopped, it's clearly very concerning
as a vegan it can be hard not to lose faith in humanity. Ed's videos are so good they should be mandatory viewing for the entire world population. Keep up the fantastic work, Ed. You are an inspiration.
How can people consider themselves progressive and leftist but keep paying for this and don't bother changing their habits? Where is your sense of justice?
I know right. People keep using animal products while complaining about other people using animal products. It's almost like they don't do their own research and instead rely on these talking head personalities to do their thinking for them.
Five minutes left to watch & the scariest was the BSE part for me- so many deaths, so much suffering & fear. Seeing my companion dog just a bit scared or having a panic attack myself already hurts so much, I can't imagine what these cows & people must have gone through. Just overall "what the heck" & an even bigger "what the heck" to all those knowing/learning about these things & looking away or even pushing them. Thank you so much for your work to you & every other vegan activist
@@GarudaLegends they're not raising their dog to eat it or profit from it. The only few places I've seen farm animals be given a happy full life are in sanctuaries. You can't even release domestic animals. It would be unethical as humans have bred them to the point where they depend on us. Stray dogs never do well. Maybe you see it as contributing to someone else's justification but I see it as taking responsibility.
@@flowerbabyliz nope. Owning a pet is no different from owning livestock. Pet is just a fancy word for slave. Ppl like you who enslave pete are no better than farmers enslaving livestock. An animal sanctuary is a literal zoo
@VOTERFRAUD BIDEN you do realize it takes time and money to be an activist right? You can't just expect people to edit your videos, animate them, film them, write them for free now can you? Ed has bills to pay, just like the rest of us. The difference is he has the freedom and time to advocate for animals without having to worry about where the money will come from. That's well worth it, imo. Just like if you were to buy the music of a musician you like, funding Ed's activism enables him to do more of it, and at a greater scale.
Your content is getting really freaking good. It's not NSFW that it turns everyone off so you can get the average person to watch it and it's still very informative and paints the picture. Well done dude and the people behind the scenes.
Amazing video, love the production. keep them coming. the cartooish format of the voice-over is a very good format i think. Ed you are one of my heroes. Calm compasionate focused empathic voice of the vegans
these industries only work because there is a demand for these products. imagine if everybody realized the injustices we commit towards the innocent animals and went vegan......; we truly have the power to change things by not participating in these inhumane practices and avoid all animal products. I see it as our duty as vegans to inform everyone and anyone that crosses our path and to plant the seed that will grow to eventually open their eyes and make them understand that what we're doing to animals is wrong and veganism is the moral baseline. most people are against hurting animals and are already vegan at heart, they simply have not made the connection yet, and that is where we come in......❤️❤️
I"ve been vegan 6 months now thanks to your videos! I think I'll do some research on the effects covid had on animal agriculture. I heard about the pigs being gas when it happened, but never looked into it since I wasn't vegan then. Now I'll look into it.
As you say, these industries do not care about the animals, the environment and they certainly don't care about their fellow humans. I stopped funding these amoral criminals 5 years ago, but I wished I started sooner.
@@simonacattina815 Very true, and without tax payers bailing the industry out, then it would no longer be in business. The industry is corrupt to the core.
Nothing surprises me anymore. I don't put any of these actions above anyone. I feel like sometimes we need to "fight fire with fire", if you will. Any progress the vegan community makes can technically be squashed immediately by throwing millions of counter-advertising at it. Imagine a world in which we're silenced and attempted to be 'canceled' because of words nobody uses such as 'milk', 'mayo' and the sorts. They're feeble and fragile and we must continue our fight.
On one hand they have money and they can pretty much stretch the bounds of law to shut down vegan product manufacturers as they wish, on the other hand, no matter how much propaganda they vomit facts are still facts and people are getting educated slowly but surely and, besides, the fact they feel the need to try to "shut us down" really speaks to how much of an impact veganism has on these soul-less corporations that abuse animals for money and lie to consumers 99.99% of the time.
@@linksusbellgate5619 Is having a "degree" not even worth the paper it's printed on from an unaccredited diploma mill in rural Wisconsin your idea of being "well educated"?
Everytime I think that I know of all the horrors of animal agriculture you prove me wrong. How worse can they get? Thank you for bringing these cases to the spotlight. The mad cow disease is definitely concerning.
Thanks Ed. My family was personally affected by the BSE crisis and we had always been involved in the livestock industry in one way or another. Although my family cared about their animals ,I had seen enough from others that I wanted nothing to do with it and my biggest reason is the ongoing destruction of the environment and wildlife because of crop and animal agriculture. I have recently been transitioning to veganism and I want to thank you for shining a light on these issues. I do wish there was some kind of money market funds that people could buy into to purchase land from farmers to return to wild lands. I realize that if everyone goes vegan than not as much crop land will be needed but farmers also can’t afford to just let their retirement funds and assets disappear. If city people would like to get together to buy land to rewild that would be ideal.
Yeah that's a really good idea, to buy unused farm land and rewild it. It will also be good for farmers since they can get money which will help them invest in different infrastructure for plant farming. I suppose we would need to strategically choose which land to rewild to create "corridors" for wildlife to migrate via. But apart from the initial investment to buy the land, plant the trees and only ongoing cost would be hiring some rangers to detract dumpers/poachers/loggers so it definitely sound practical.
What your talking about is being plant-based. Veganism is an ethical stance that's changes your lifestyle. Everything else looks health or environmentalism is being plant-based. I know I sound stingy but I feel like it's key to know the difference when discussing this issue.
@@devvyas6751 Isn't it an ethical stance to say "animals should not be kept in captivity"? So rewilding is about providing a proper home to animals so they can explore their capabilities and be free of humans having control of their reproduction and social behaviour.
@@mistahkurtz2351 very true, but see if it was an ethical stance mostly everything they would be worried about the animal in a way like, to stop the cruelty and slaughter. But your point is still valid

Thank you for everything you do Ed! I want to take a more active role in animal rights movement. Thank you for inspiring and educating us.
These stories are both scary and infuriating!
as a vegan it can be hard not to lose faith in humanity.
Ed's videos are so good they should be mandatory viewing for the entire world population.
Keep up the fantastic work, Ed. You are an inspiration.
Mandatory? How about no, you commie
@@GarudaLegends commie? 😁 What century do you live in?
Absolutely frightening the lengths they are prepared to go. I hope this gets seen by many.
Ed, you’ve changed so many lives with your activism. Stay safe, bro.
The quality of these videos is insanely good. Thank you Ed for the great work and information.
I love your informative videos like this. These videos should be blasted on billboards and schools to spread awareness.
When will people wake up and realize Animals are not food!!!! 🤯
How can people consider themselves progressive and leftist but keep paying for this and don't bother changing their habits?
Where is your sense of justice?
I know right. People keep using animal products while complaining about other people using animal products.
It's almost like they don't do their own research and instead rely on these talking head personalities to do their thinking for them.
The level of corruption in the food industry and the gov't (U.S.) is so vast is seems hopeless. Thank you, Ed, for making sure these stories are told.
Loving the animations and presentation of all your latest videos! Thank you for everything you do 💚
I think he payed animators to do it
ya animation style is op
Amazing job. You always
exposes the very heart of the horrific animal exploitation business, with solid hard evidence. Thank you !! Excellent!
I turned vegan a few months ago, never going back!:)👍👍😎
Ed is simply, an intelligent, beautiful, honest, compassionate person......WE LOVE YOU ED!!!!!
Excellent investigation Ed!!! Thank you very much to help to uncover these evil industries. Sharing💚
Five minutes left to watch & the scariest was the BSE part for me- so many deaths, so much suffering & fear. Seeing my companion dog just a bit scared or having a panic attack myself already hurts so much, I can't imagine what these cows & people must have gone through.
Just overall "what the heck" & an even bigger "what the heck" to all those knowing/learning about these things & looking away or even pushing them.
Thank you so much for your work to you & every other vegan activist
A Dog? You are a slave master for owning a dog. You are part of the problem and you are the reason why meat eaters justify owning livestock. SMH
@@GarudaLegends they're not raising their dog to eat it or profit from it. The only few places I've seen farm animals be given a happy full life are in sanctuaries. You can't even release domestic animals. It would be unethical as humans have bred them to the point where they depend on us. Stray dogs never do well. Maybe you see it as contributing to someone else's justification but I see it as taking responsibility.
@@flowerbabyliz nope. Owning a pet is no different from owning livestock. Pet is just a fancy word for slave. Ppl like you who enslave pete are no better than farmers enslaving livestock. An animal sanctuary is a literal zoo
@@GarudaLegends no try visiting a farm and then visit a vegan sanctuary. Huge difference.
@@flowerbabyliz do you mean farm or zoo?
Thank you for your tireless advocacy for animals and the planet.
@VOTERFRAUD BIDEN you do realize it takes time and money to be an activist right? You can't just expect people to edit your videos, animate them, film them, write them for free now can you? Ed has bills to pay, just like the rest of us. The difference is he has the freedom and time to advocate for animals without having to worry about where the money will come from. That's well worth it, imo. Just like if you were to buy the music of a musician you like, funding Ed's activism enables him to do more of it, and at a greater scale.
Your content is getting really freaking good. It's not NSFW that it turns everyone off so you can get the average person to watch it and it's still very informative and paints the picture. Well done dude and the people behind the scenes.
Thank you so much for consistently creating and sharing great educational videos like this 💚
They put cows in an oven alive?!?!?!?!?! what the hell... truly HELL. This is so heartbreaking :(
Amazing video, love the production. keep them coming.
the cartooish format of the voice-over is a very good format i think.
Ed you are one of my heroes.
Calm compasionate focused empathic voice of the vegans
We must hold wrongdoers accountable. So, all of us. We should all be vegan by now. Thanks Ed for sharing all this brother. ❤️🎉👏👏👏🔥😌🤘👽😮💥
these industries only work because there is a demand for these products. imagine if everybody realized the injustices we commit towards the innocent animals and went vegan......; we truly have the power to change things by not participating in these inhumane practices and avoid all animal products. I see it as our duty as vegans to inform everyone and anyone that crosses our path and to plant the seed that will grow to eventually open their eyes and make them understand that what we're doing to animals is wrong and veganism is the moral baseline. most people are against hurting animals and are already vegan at heart, they simply have not made the connection yet, and that is where we come in......❤️❤️
@@keeshea6718 amen brother. 🙌💓 I gotta make music on the topic, in good time. :)
The kid shying away from the burger is all you need to know
Yes!!! Expose all of these evil people!
I"ve been vegan 6 months now thanks to your videos! I think I'll do some research on the effects covid had on animal agriculture. I heard about the pigs being gas when it happened, but never looked into it since I wasn't vegan then. Now I'll look into it.
More people need to see this!
Animals need help. Please share this video.
As you say, these industries do not care about the animals, the environment and they certainly don't care about their fellow humans. I stopped funding these amoral criminals 5 years ago, but I wished I started sooner.
It's so sad that even though we do not directly fund them, our tax money is still going to them
@@simonacattina815 Very true, and without tax payers bailing the industry out, then it would no longer be in business. The industry is corrupt to the core.
I would click the ❤️ button instead of 👍 if there was one.
I wish there was a button that closes all slaughterhouses forever.
Spreading this!! Unbelievable 🥺
Nothing surprises me anymore. I don't put any of these actions above anyone. I feel like sometimes we need to "fight fire with fire", if you will. Any progress the vegan community makes can technically be squashed immediately by throwing millions of counter-advertising at it. Imagine a world in which we're silenced and attempted to be 'canceled' because of words nobody uses such as 'milk', 'mayo' and the sorts. They're feeble and fragile and we must continue our fight.
On one hand they have money and they can pretty much stretch the bounds of law to shut down vegan product manufacturers as they wish, on the other hand, no matter how much propaganda they vomit facts are still facts and people are getting educated slowly but surely and, besides, the fact they feel the need to try to "shut us down" really speaks to how much of an impact veganism has on these soul-less corporations that abuse animals for money and lie to consumers 99.99% of the time.

Astonishing job putting these together. Thank you!
Clear and concise video, Ed! You rock!
great job ed, keep exposing these monsters!!
Brilliant video! It's really eye opening. I'd love to see this as a full documentary.

Everytime I think that I know of all the horrors of animal agriculture you prove me wrong. How worse can they get?
Thank you for bringing these cases to the spotlight. The mad cow disease is definitely concerning.
Thank you for all your work Ed!!! This is super insightful and important
Excellent as always Ed. Keep up the good work.
Awesome job on the animation. Thanks Ed.
💔 Thank you for this difficult work
Liked, shared and commented. You do great work Ed.
These poor pigs 😔 Some people deserve to be in that shed to be roasted instead of these innocent animals
Thank you so much for your work. You are the unspoken hero of humanity.
The production quality just keeps getting better and better. Great work
Amazing production quality, Ed. Thanks so much for making these.
Thanks Ed. My family was personally affected by the BSE crisis and we had always been involved in the livestock industry in one way or another. Although my family cared about their animals ,I had seen enough from others that I wanted nothing to do with it and my biggest reason is the ongoing destruction of the environment and wildlife because of crop and animal agriculture. I have recently been transitioning to veganism and I want to thank you for shining a light on these issues. I do wish there was some kind of money market funds that people could buy into to purchase land from farmers to return to wild lands. I realize that if everyone goes vegan than not as much crop land will be needed but farmers also can’t afford to just let their retirement funds and assets disappear. If city people would like to get together to buy land to rewild that would be ideal.
Yeah that's a really good idea, to buy unused farm land and rewild it. It will also be good for farmers since they can get money which will help them invest in different infrastructure for plant farming. I suppose we would need to strategically choose which land to rewild to create "corridors" for wildlife to migrate via. But apart from the initial investment to buy the land, plant the trees and only ongoing cost would be hiring some rangers to detract dumpers/poachers/loggers so it definitely sound practical.
What your talking about is being plant-based. Veganism is an ethical stance that's changes your lifestyle. Everything else looks health or environmentalism is being plant-based. I know I sound stingy but I feel like it's key to know the difference when discussing this issue.
@@devvyas6751 Isn't it an ethical stance to say "animals should not be kept in captivity"? So rewilding is about providing a proper home to animals so they can explore their capabilities and be free of humans having control of their reproduction and social behaviour.
@@mistahkurtz2351 very true, but see if it was an ethical stance mostly everything they would be worried about the animal in a way like, to stop the cruelty and slaughter. But your point is still valid
@@mistahkurtz2351 I guess veganism is more of a stop the abuse kind of movement than provide a better lifte style for the animals.
Very upsetting to watch but so important to talk about. Thanks for another informative video Ed
Great video Ed so informative 👍🏻👏🏻
Powerful work, amazing🌿
