Paul McCartney narrates a documentary explaining many important reasons for not eating meat— showing the horrible suffering that poultry, pigs, cows and fish are routinely subjected to in order to create meat that is eaten by people. Also see this article.
This video explains the horrible Islamic “Halal” slaughtering technique, where the throats of the animals are cut while the animal is still conscious and alive, causing them to suffer greatly. Also see this article.
I keep seeing stories that warn about an agenda of the global elite to make people stop eating meat, such as by “making people eat ground-up bugs” for example. It is true that some of the elite like Klaus Schwab and Bill Gates have said that they want to make people eat ground-up bugs, but there is no reason to eat ground up bugs (which aren’t vegan anyway) on a vegan diet because there are many other sources of protein such as beans, for example.
I think the political Establishment in fact has exactly an opposite agenda where they don’t want conservatives and others to become vegans, so they can exploit the issue as one to cause divisiveness as well as for other reasons.
If the political Establishment actually wanted people to become vegans, they would simply tout information on their media outlets informing people about such food along with the reasons to be vegan, which they never do. Instead they are focusing their efforts on doing whatever is possible in order to make conservatives and others view such a diet with contempt. Even most liberal media outlets won’t mention anything about it.
I’m not opposed to all meat eating, but I think the animal should be well-treated during its entire life and killed in a painless manner, which is almost never the case with the meat that most people consume.
