Stop The Violence

I'll be back soon... I wanted to make some solid improvements to the Stop The Violence Podcast! In this episode I reflect on what it's been like podcasting for 6 months, what I've learned, and where this podcast is heading, and suggestions for who to listen to while I'm gone! (And some other thoughts...)

Vegans are soooo judgmental! Why can't they just live and let live? NO HATE TOWARD KALYN NICHOLSON! I am one of her huge fans and have been watching her since 2015. I am simply analyzing what she has been saying and doing lately regarding veganism. I also use this as an opportunity to discuss judgement/ being judgmental.

This week for the podcast you will get to hear some amazing speeches from Black Lives Matter Paterson (NJ). Follow @blm_paterson and @zellieimani on insta. These speeches were recorded by myself on May 25, 2021 on the first anniversary of the murder of George Floyd. The speeches honor George, and you will also hear some experiences of black and other non-white people. BLM Paterson also shares about the injustices happening to Palestine. Note: BLM Paterson does not know that I am posting the speeches and they do not know me. I believe they want their messages shared, but if they don't want me posting this and let me know, I will take it down.

Are there serious ethical concerns with consuming cashews, avocados, or almonds? I do my best to answer this question because I wanted to know too. This is the first installment of a series where I look into certain plant foods that people say have some dirty things going on behind the scenes.

Water is obviously vital to our survival and clean usable water is getting more and more scarce...with less than a billion humans without drinking water though, the fact that the number is well into the billions for the amount of animals using this water is very perplexing.

Books I mentioned: How to Break Up With Your Phone by Catherine Price, and Self Compassion by Kristen Neff. One point I forgot to make is that phones are an arena for random emotional triggers as well as mental overstimulation- isn't it easier to stay happy when you don't see something on your phone that steals your joy?!

Positive vibes only...does doing activism and talking about what happens to the animals mean the cruelty will grow, since what we focus on grows? Would the cruelty go away if we just don't focus on it? Are vegan activists toxic people who spread negativity? This and more about BOTH positivity and negativity and how to balance the two!

Are vegans raging hypocrites who just have a plant based diet to feel better about their phones and fast fashion purchases?

Today we are talking about Walter Bond, a vegan animal rights activist who did ten years in prison for burning down a sheepskin factory, restaurant, and leather business under the name ALF Lone Wolf and as an act of the Animal Liberation Front. In prison he wrote several essays and they have been compiled into his book Always Looking Forward. The purpose of this episode is to share quotes that I find motivational for activists and all of my info about Bond is coming from his book as I had trouble finding it elsewhere.

I was physically assaulted last month while peacefully protesting, and it's got me thinking a lot about the bullying, physical harm, and even worse...that animal rights activists can go through for simply speaking up for animals that happen to not be dogs.

4-H teaches kids to see animals as objects to make money off of and heartlessly sell for SLAUGHTER. Children often cry when they are forced to sell their animals for slaughter after caring for them and bonding with them for a year or more. 4-H teaches kids not to have compassion and their only justification is "that's how it is".
