Medical Medium Community! Animals Need Your Help Now

This is not intended to create conflict but to bring attention to a very important issue so that it can be addressed!

• The MM community is harboring vegans and unintentionally suppressing them from speaking about veganism and animal rights because of the social pressure within the community to not take a stance on veganism.
• This is a disaster because the MM community is one of the largest plant-based communities in the world, yet it has been practically silenced on the issue of veganism and animal rights, holding back the success of the animal rights movement. MM community, please take ownership of this and turn this around!
• Anthony William stated in a livestream that the vegan movement has been greatly damaged by anti-vegan misinformation because the vegan community lacks the knowledge of MM info to be able to defend itself. While this may be partly due to the vegan community lacking open-mindedness towards MM info, this is also exacerbated by the MM community’s silence on veganism and animal rights, which means that far less vegans are exposed to MM info!

Animals Need Your Help Now!

• To understand the severity and urgency of this issue you must view the footage of how animals are treated in the industry. Until you see what is happening with your own eyes, you won’t understand the severity and gravity of this issue. Please do not turn a blind eye. Put yourself in the animal’s position and imagine if someone else turned a blind eye to you and abandoned you while you were suffering and helpless.
• Over 90 billion land animals and 1-3 trillion fish are abused and slaughtered every year. The treatment of these animals is abusive and cruel, even on farms that claim to have high welfare standards. All animals are precious, which makes this atrocity unbelievably evil.
• Cows are repeatedly forcefully inseminated (raped) and then their babies are stolen from them immediately after birth. The mother’s grief can be seen and heard—they are known the bellow out for their baby and sometimes even cry. Baby boy calves are either slaughtered shortly after birth, raised for “veal” where they are confined so that their muscles don’t develop so that the baby’s flesh is more tender for the people who consume them (how sickening is that?), or raised and slaughtered at 2 years of age. The mother cow will be mercilessly slaughtered at 1/4th her lifespan when her body can no longer keep up with the demand of repeated childbirth.
• Baby male chicks are sent into macerating machines alive. Baby chickens have the tip of their sensitive beak cut off with no pain relief. Baby pigs have their teeth clipped and are castrated with no pain relief. Cows are dehorned, an excruciatingly painful process, again with no pain relief. These are just a few examples of the cruelty, torture, and mutilation in the animal agriculture trafficking industry. The conditions of factory farms are so bad that hundreds of millions of animals die every year from disease, injury, dehydration, and starvation before even making it to slaughter.

Medical Medium Community, Please Take Action!

• Please spread awareness in the MM community about the social pressure that is suppressing vegans in the community. This needs to be acknowledged so that it can be recognized and changed, and so that we learn from this so it doesn’t repeat. Please help me bring this to the attention of Anthony William and Spirit of Compassion and ask them to give a greenlight for vegans in the community to speak about veganism and animal rights if they desire to.
• Please take responsibility for the world that we have created and inform yourself on what is happening to animals in the animal trafficking industry. View the footage yourself to see and truly connect to what is happening. I implore you to have the courage to extend your empathy and compassion to animals even when so few people do.
• Share MM info to counter anti-vegan misinformation. If the vegan movement has been greatly damaged by this misinformation, then the solution is for us to spread the truth using MM info, as much as possible!
• Get involved in animal rights advocacy and activism. Not only will this help the animals, but this will also expose more people in the vegan community to MM info. This is important to help vegans learn how to thrive on a vegan diet and be equipped to counter anti-vegan propaganda. See the caption for more on getting involved.

This is inspired by Medical Medium’s livestream about the new war on veganism where he said that the vegan movement was actually bigger around pre-2000, but has been damaged by anti-vegan misinformation and may not recover anytime soon if something doesn’t change! This is unacceptable because the animals cannot afford, and do not deserve, to have their cruel oppression prolonged any longer.

Here are some ways that you can get involved in the animal rights movement:

• Support the work of animal rights activists, such as by sharing and engaging with their content and donating to support them. You can also donate to animal rights organizations and animal rescue sanctuaries. These are simple and effective way to contribute.
  ⠀
  Some animal rights activists and organizations I recommend supporting:
  @waynehhsiung
  @zoe_rooster
  @directactioneverywhere
  @joey_carbstrong
  @vegan_activism
  @itsmelandsteve
  @lifting_vegan_logic
  @farmtransparencyproject
  @proanimalfuture
  @animalsentienceproject
  ⠀
• Share MM info, especially with the vegan community, that counters anti-vegan misinformation. Anthony William mentioned that these specific points are used against veganism: the claim that vegan diets harm fertility, create hormone imbalances, lead to the feminization of men, that leafy greens and certain vegetables are toxic (e.g. oxalate fear propaganda). Another issue is that the vegan community doesn’t realize that soy and corn have been so heavily GMO’d, including organic due to cross-contamination, that these otherwise healthy foods have become detrimental to health.
  ⠀
• Learn about what is needed for the vegan movement to be successful and join in these efforts. I say this because vegan outreach is helpful, but to protect animals from cruelty and mass slaughter we also need to push to create legal changes that give animals basic rights and protections. I highly recommend the following article: “Why activism, not veganism, is the moral baseline” https://www.directactioneverywhere.com/dxe-in-the-news/2015-7-27-why-activism-not-veganism-is-the-moral-baseline
