suffocated inside plastic bags, ground up alive, or gassed to death by the billions yearly… that’s what happens to chicks in the egg industry. CASTRATION, tail docking, and other forms of mutilation such as teeth yanking, dehorning, beek filing, etc. are performed on other animals WITHOUT PAIN RELIEF. These are STANDARD practices done to farm animals across the globe. Look up what a gestation crate is on Google, imagine being confined there & not being able to take a step forward, backward, or even turn around. You’d think after all that they can die a peaceful death, but no during transit depending on how far away the slaughterhouse is, many of the animals die from thrist, heat, & the cold. If you watch interviews with ex-slaughterhouse workers they maintain that a lot of animals remain conscious as they’re hung upside down choking on their own blood. When you buy animal products, you are funding the atrocities committed unto animals.
According to the American Dietetic Association (consisting of 100,000 professionals in health and nutrition) we can thrive on a vegan diet at every stage of life: pregnancy, lactation & infancy. This is backed by the British Dietetic association, the Canadian Dietic Association, the NHS, as well as many other.
Furthermore, meat consumption is absolutely devastating for the environment. The United Nation published a 40 page report titled Livestock’s Long Shadow detailing every envionmental issue we face as a result of animal agriculture. The list is extensive everything from global warming, climate change, water pollution, resource depletion, antibiotics resistance, deforestation (to make room for feed crops) leading to habitat loss and species extinction at an unprecedented rate… and so on
Still insist we have valid reasons for meat consumption? Look up “earthling ed ted talk every argument against veganism” he will debunk all the best points waged against veganism
To the vegetatians out therewho arent aware of the cruelty of dairy and eggs. Please look up “why aren’t vegans just vegetarian earthling ed” here on YouTube
“…but protein, b12, dha, etc!) – See my playlist, The videos in my playlist will dispel any misconception you might have about nutrition, there’s also good documentaries on animal agri. in my playlist

it doesn’t need to go both ways. Walk in others shoes and learn their experiences. Then they are faced with choice of accepting compassion or not.

When you have been effectively locked up together for a year straight, almost any relationship will be strained, compassion isn’t the solution when Covid has destroyed your general appreciation of or ability to put up with another person.

I am so glad that you have discovered compassion. Not new, people have been doing it for 100,000s of years. Although suffering alongside someone sounds a bit silly… you can sympathise and understand other people’s point of view without the suffering. Not quite sure why this is a TED talk..

How about acceptance culture. Accepting true diversity manifesting itself as diverse thought and opinions.
Thank you Betty. For reminding folks of the options we have.
Cancel culture must end.
Otherwise our society is doomed to fail.

We are at a crossroads here that compassion stuff will leave you open to narcissistic abuse, scam artist and manipulation. The cancel culture stuff will eliminate freedom, free thought and individuality. Just be the best you you can be and hope for the best.

Thats a stupid concept.
If you don’t open yourself up to the things you disagree with then you reach a box of seclusion and ignorance and if you stay in that box you gain a massive ego even for being wrong but if you open yourself up to things you can understand more,widen your views and become more intelligent

Just a reminder that you shouldn’t try compassionate culture with abusive people (emotionally or physically). You deserve better, it’s not your job to “fix” them. Get your distance please and focus on your mental and physical health. I’m a person with sociopathic parents. Try showing them some empathy. They take it all, never get tired of getting, but they won’t give you anything in return. Not all people change. And for the ones who do, let’s meet them again when they have already changed.
