I've always been a big meat-eater and milk-drinker, and I've never had the money or time to consider becoming a vegan. I want to try now, though, but I don't know where to start, because I really love the taste of meat, and I have a very low income. What should I do?

If money is standing in your way of the diet or life style you wish to have, then there's nothing to be ashamed of(?) if that is even the correct wording. I have the privilege of choosing the diet and foods and clothes that eat, wear and buy.You can always be as vegetarian or vegan as you can, within your monetary limits. But it is up to you and how you can manage it.

Why? Here are three good reasons.

Ethical treatment of animals? Really?

Sexist marketing ploys (galore, Google any PETA ad and it’s probably a photoshopped woman’s body to sell their message)

Sympathizes with the police state

WHY HONEY ISN’T VEGAN.

most of the information i have gleaned for this post is from a wonderful movie called

vanishing of the bees, which is conveniently on netflix right now for your viewing pleasure.

the very basis of veganism itself is that animals are not ours to exploit for any reason whatsoever. this includes wearing their pelts, taking products that come from their body and their flesh itself, using products that have been tested on animals and supporting companies that practice vivisection, and the usage of animals for entertainment value, such as circuses and bullfighting. 

obviously, honey is a product that is made by bees, so by this very logic, the consumption of their honey goes against the very definition of veganism.

but since this seems to not be enough to dissuade “beegans” from consuming honey, here are a few other reasons.

contrary to seemingly popular belief, honey is not made specifically for human consumption. it is made to feed larva and to feed the worker bees themselves. larva also feed on pollen, which is where they get the majority of their nutrients. honey is like the red bull of the bee world, it provides energy for them. nurse bees, who tend to the queen, must also consume honey and pollen in order to make royal jelly, which is fed to the larva. the amount of royal jelly fed to larva will determine which become worker bees and which will become queen bees. royal jelly is also harvested by humans, along with beeswax.

in a typical beekeeping situation, the beekeeper will remove only what is perceived as “excess” honey from the hive. this “excess” is in fact what the hive stores in order to survive the winter months. sometimes the beekeeper will remove all of the honey, and feed the bees sugar or corn syrup in autumn, a practice that is viewed with distaste by many traditional beekeepers. this is common practice in an industrial beekeeping scenario, and is invasive and devastating to the bees.

another disturbing practice is the removal and beheading of the queen. like many aspects of industrial farming, humans aim to breed for certain qualities, like breeding cows that produce large quantities of milk, or cows with larger flanks. beekeeping is no different, and different queens will produce larva that have desired traits.

the old queen is removed, her head is “pinched” and she is killed. before the new queen is introduced she will be sedated, shoved face down into a tube with her thorax hanging out, artificially inseminated (raped), have a number glued to her, and placed in a small cage inside the hive. this is to insure her survival, since for the first 7 to 10 days the hive will most likely reject her and try to kill her.

most people associate beekeeping with an intimate, respectful relationship between apiarist and bee. sadly with the rise of industrial animal keeping, this is no longer a common reality.

a lot of people are environmental vegans, which is rejecting the usage of animal products on the basis that the industrial practice is unsustainable and damages the environment. when these aforementioned practices are put into use, and many more, it can cause something called “colony collapse disorder”, which could ultimately lead to the devastation and downfall to our ecosystem completely.

since the beginning of time bees and humans have shared a special and sacred relationship. it is time to stop exploiting our hardest workers, and give them the respect and protection they deserve. this is one of the crucial keys to saving our environment, and a huge step in the right direction of non-human animal rights.

So I'm looking for printed brochures, texts, pamphlets, anything about going veg and environment that I could hand out to 40 people. So if you have some or know organizations I could contact in order to do so. Thank you very much and sorry for the multiple ASKs. JT

Hi. I just sent you an ASK but i don't know if it worked so i'm going to retry now. I was saying that in an Environmental Anthropolgy class at Laval University (Canada), I must talk about any environmental issue of my choice and i chose to work on going veg and the impact it can have on environment. When I'll present my work to the class, I'd like to hand out brochures pamphlets, infos about it to the class (aprox 40 people). I agree with your views about PETA and I was wondering if you knew

IF YOU ARE PASSIONATE OR CARE ABOUT ANIMALS AT ALL:

Deputies found more than 160 Malamute dogs with little to no water and their kennels full of feces. During their search, deputies also found a marijuana operation with more than 200 plants.

Mike Chilinski faces charges of felony criminal production or manufacturing of dangerous drugs, criminal possession with intent to distribute and use or possession of property subject to criminal forfeiture along with a misdemeanor animal cruelty charge.

Authorities say several additional felony animal cruelty charges are pending.

The seizure and transportation of the dogs was completed with assistance from the Humane Society of the U.S., the Lewis and Clark Humane Society, more than 20 volunteers and several local veterinarians.

All of the dogs – including about 20 puppies and 12 pregnant dogs – are being taken care of at the Lewis and Clark Humane Society. State director for the U.S. Humane Society says Chilinski sold puppies – some of which were very sick – through the internet and newspaper ads, claiming to offer show-quality dogs.

Many of the dogs were underweight, had parasites and untreated wounds. A spokesperson for the Lewis and Clark Humane Society says the dogs are now resting comfortably and settling in.

Jamie Oliver's 'Ethical' Fish Sticks.

[whypetadoesnotspeakforme]

theinformedvegan:

For those who hate the planet, there are regular fish sticks. For those who love mother earth but still want to deep fry her children and dunk them in tarter sauce, there are celebrity chef Jamie Oliver’s “ethical” fish sticks.

The common fish stick is usually made from cod fish which are currently threatened from overfishing but Jamie’s “ethical” fish sticks contain pollack meat. Oliver, and other pseudo-environmentalists, claim that it is morally superior or even “ethical” to eat fish like pollack that aren’t as threatened YET.

Real environmentalists, scientists, and even Greenpeace are all warning that after cod, pollack are the next fish species to experience a population collapse. The white pollack fish is one of the most common species used for processed fish products (think Fish-Fil-A) and imitation crab. It hardly seems “ethical” of Jamie to accelerate their demise.

Extinction concerns aside, eating animals isn’t ethical, period. Fish feel pain and have the same desire to survive, thrive, and procreate that all animals do. Pollack don’t want to be your deep fried after school snack anymore than cod do.

Abundant or not, killing someone who doesn’t want to be killed is never ethical.

ATTN: PETA crtiticism reposters.

Most anti-peta stuff, including petakillsanimals.com and the petition to classify PETA as a slaughterhouse are put out by the Center For Consumer Freedom, a group funded by Philip Morris and devoted to helping large corporations fuck everyone over.

So yes, PETA has questionable and outright oppressive campaigns and bad tactics, however, CHECK YOUR FUCKING SOURCES. As far as bad things go, the enemy of your enemy is not always your friend. They could in fact be a coalition of evil megacorps, and they are.
