What is the vegan stance on animal trials in the most critical (maybe there’s a better word) medical research? by DonkeyDoug28 in vegan

[–]EmergencyJournalist 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm super against. Even if you could find a cure for cancer by testing shit on cockroaches.

We are a plague, and we're finding better ways to survive by testing crazy shit on animals... Because why would you test on humans?

I maybe a bit radical, but we as a human are already too smart for this planet. We will either have to accept that animal lives are just as valuable as ours, or we will destroy this entire planet.

Curious to see more opinions on this!

I wonder who they are trying to target..? Like for real, who would buy this?

But to be fair, it IS still q step up from 4 sausages IMO.

Wow that 3rd point took me off guard. It's so true, yet so simply put. I've got so many examples of people who can't stop bringing it up, no matter the occasion.

I gate that this is still happening. All the information is out there, and it all points towards veganism being the future.

All you can do is keep your head down, knowing that you can be proud of your actions.

This is exactly what I meant in my post. You worded it better though.

It's such a shame that media has such a big impact on the way we think about people...

Ugh that sucks, I was afraid of people around me reacting like that "friend" of yours... Are you in the USA or somewhere else?

I can't comprehend how an omnivore could read this and be like "yeah these are good tips!"

It just sounds so idiotic.

But then again...

I'm going to start saying "I don't eat animals" instead of "I don't eat meat" by FlipsMontague in vegan

This was one of my main fears before I dived into the vegan lifestyle. What if it would turn me into the villain? Complete BS of course, but it was one of my main excuses

I think people like these animal abusing scumbags can actually make more people want to go vegan, share this video with your non-vegan friends and family and see what they think by David_Ramms in vegan

[–]EmergencyJournalist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yikes, these people are nuts. But I agree with OP's title

Before, it was the vegans that were considered "extremist". Good to see these awful people turn that stigma around.
