Also it's a yellow vegan symbol and http://WatchDominion.org it's a documentary about the standard practices of what unavoidably occurs to animals when they're being used for food, clothing and other purposes

The QR code and http://dontwatch.org It's to raise awareness of what people usually either don't realise they're participating in or are disconnected or desensitised from

Oh I see, cheese is very addictive after all (casein turns into casomorphin in the body, which has an opioid effect). Just wondering, have you tried vegan/plant-based cheese? I love it. Does the same job as cheese for me, though I don't have it that much.

I personally decided that the ethical and environmental problems, in addition to the health impacts, of animal derived cheese/dairy weren't worth purchasing and consuming it. But luckily we have products that taste exactly the same, lol.

I respect that but it's still difficult for me to see what everyone else is doing to animals, and that's even if I don't get any rude comments from people because of my vegan (plant-based) food.

Any way forgive me but I feel like every vegetarian deserves to know the truth about the dairy industry: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UcN7SGGoCNI

And here's a good video about why I don't eat eggs either: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7YFz99OT18k

Happy thanksgiving :)

It's an oof because it shows, yes, we could live happily coexisting with animals without unnecessarily exploiting, enslaving, abusing and killing them for commodities and entertainment, which we have alternatives for. The future is vegan/plant-based and animal rights are respected in a progressive world.

Hence why veganism is a moral obligation to animals. It's indefensible to kill or exploit/harm an animal without their consent (which they can't give), and which clearly isn't in their best interests

Unnecessarily killing or harming a sentient individual is wrong, full stop

Is it just "extreme temperatures" in general that can have medicinal properties?

Films about slavery usually focus on the victims themselves, which is understandable.

Instead, I'm looking for movies (or TV series) which depict abolitionists at the time of widespread and normalised human slavery in society, and the rise of the abolitionist movement. That is, I want to see anti-slavery activists and how they eventually overtook society and transformed from a minority into the majority of people agreeing with them.

I'm interested in showing abolitionists in general but specifically in showing the growth of the abolitionism movement from being a vocal minority seemingly hated by most people, to the majority view in society. (Truly it would have to cover hundreds of years to show this complete, slow transition of society turning against slavery.)

I believe animal rights activists today might benefit from seeing the perspectives of people campaigning to end human slavery despite most of society being against them, and be inspired by how they eventually convinced everyone to reject slavery, as animal rights activists attempt to convince everyone to reject animal exploitation in modern day.

It's "at a loss for words", not "at a lost of words".

CNN’s Wolf Blitzer seemed at a loss for words at the justification being used to bomb a refugee camp in Gaza.
