Someone Explained Why Veganism Is Not Cruelty Free, And It Might Make You Think Twice Before Going Vegan

Tell me, Max, I guess you still ... KILL ... all those cattle you raise. So how would they see your argument?

Well, the unlogic thing would be to follow up this logic with the conclusion "So it's totally ok to be racist, I see"

Oh, veganism is not 100% cruelty free? Then let's kill animals instead ... :-( Most amazed about the argument "Immigrants get exploited for crops" ... pray tell, who do you think works in slaughterhouses, most often under horrible conditions???

if your parents live in the countryside, i believe they own cats, dogs, or even horses. Do they eat them also??

Thank you for this comment Sarah Sharpe, I couldn't have put it better myself.

Yes is so silly blaming exploitation on veganism, is the system that has to change not veganism. For almost every product in the supermarket, people is exploit. The system has to change. Excuses, excuses to keep a cruel life-style.

People have also been raping and killing each other since our existence, you dipshit. That's no excuse to keep doing it.

I'm not a vegan, but this is the most idiotic argument I've seen against veganism. That's like someone saying: "No one should be racist!" And someone else arguing: "It's impossible to eradicate racism because there's no such thing as a cruelty free world and some cultures and religions support systematic racism and here are some cherry-picked examples in which bigotry has benefitted certain cultures!" Solving problems (such as saving the planet and animals) is difficult, but arguing against people trying to help solve the problem is just counterproductive.

Oh my god this is so incredibly stupid. Of course veganism isn't 100% cruely free, we all know. But it's a whole lot less cruel than partaking in the killing of 150+ billion animals each year. Or does vegan food kill 150 billion workers each year? How fantastically stupid many people are never ceases to amaze and depress me.

I'm really confused as to why this Bored Panda shares so much anti-vegan propaganda. I love the animal pics, the heart warming stories, the funny anecdotes, and the awesome art, but why this???

Someone Explained Why Veganism Is Not Cruelty Free, And It Might Make You Think Twice Before Going Vegan

I'm a little disappointed in this article. Veganism does not equate to 100% cruelty free, nor does it stand for being perfect. Before I get any further into this, I think it needs to be addressed that me being vegan doesn't make me better than anybody else, and stating that I am vegan is not a personal attack towards someome that isn't. That being said, this whole idea of "there will never be a cruelty free way to live so might as well not eat vegan" is ridiculous and albeit lazy. Not every vegan you meet is a quinoa, whole foods loving, preachy vegan (that is only in it for the aesthetic). That is a gross stereotype and is only a small percent, so please don't brush off real issues. The mest and dairy industries are the number one source of greenhouse gases, the number one motive behind deforestation. All the grain we are producing to breed (inseminate) more livestock to keep the cattle alive could feed most of the world. To reiterate, I said meat and dairy industries, not small farms which is a different argument. Veganism = doing the best you can to protect not only fellow inhabitants of the earth but our earth itself. It is not a fairytale ideology. People are self destructive creatures and it's important to weigh out the pros and cons of all the choices available to you.

This article does not address that non-vegans are eating from the same crops as vegans! It makes it sound like vegans are contributing more to human cruelty that non-vegans, which is not true. Veganism is a fight against animal cruelty- human cruelty is a separate issue that needs to be adressed by all people. Vegans have little to no bearing on it. The foods people labor to make are bought by vegans and non-vegans alike.

Let's not forget how much of food is wasted every day, every year. Plus consumption of meat is getting crazy, my grandparents ate meat once per week, my parents grew up having meat few time per week, now people in my country having meat everyday for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Despite all opnions given. I think we can all agree that the problem is the humans. we kill, we destroy and blame each other for it. we have no respect for the place we live in and we intend to move to another planet, like a disease, and do it all over again.

What about crops wihch are exported or harvesed by children to feed animals that will be eat by men?

Someone Explained Why Veganism Is Not Cruelty Free, And It Might Make You Think Twice Before Going Vegan

Cows require more agriculture to farm than a veg diet requires to eat, for the same reason that your weight it not a combined weight of everything you've ever eaten. Feeding a cow in order to eat the cow is logistically the same as using a fire hose to turn the knob on your kitchen tap. The meat industry could be more humane and considerate, as could the agriculture industry, but if both of them became as humane as possible, only one would still be taking lives. You can only be so humane when you're killing a sentient being. That said, of course eating meat is natural, and of course I'm not going to yell at my cat for not becoming a vegetarian. However if I can go about my daily life without killing something, and with consuming less resource then that's better off in my eyes.

Veganism is a step in the right direction. That doesn't mean the direction is paved with gold. Eating quinoa is not fundamentally endorsing child labor - the fact that child labor is used has nothing to do with the environmental impact of the diet itself, it's a separate injustice to correct. However, eating meat fundamentally requires more land and resource to produce, and fundamentally produces more waste (methane, most of all), however there could just as well be children working the farms, particularly in Brazil's notorious meat industry which is taking down the rainforest faster than any paper mill. If you want 100% in control of the cruelty in your diet, have your own farm where you grow all of your food your own way. If you're going to be a vegan, it just means you have a LOT less work to do on the farm, and a LOT less space needed for it.
