What the Health

Xfrogman43 · 2017-07-27 02:17:38

Has anybody seen this?
My brother watched this and dinner was cheeseburgers and he said no. He got some mayonaise and read the ingredients and saw eggs and then scraped it off his plate... I'm not one to judge but I do think after watching one of those it shouldn't turn people. I've seen several small clips (not documentaries) about this stuff and it hasnt changed me. If I change my ways (which I won't) then it doesn't stop them from killing animals or building slaughterhouses.

well my sister apparently saw some things about soda and hot dogs and hamburgers so now she eats/drinks none of those things. This might be that, though I haven't bothered to ask.

I take it that WTH makes the case against inhumane animal treatment?

Not sure what it is exactly about but I have seen some stuff about slaughterhouses and how they treat the animals and the like, but i still eat them...

In the future, I plan to exclusively get meat from local farms. I won't support animal torture, and neither should you.

Sure, a single person's diet won't change much, but encourage the people around you to do the same. Make a complaint to each nearby fast food restaurant. That will have at least some effect on what's happening, even if on a small local level.

Do you actually think that if I went to a McDonalds and said that they should raise their meat better they'd actually do something?

I'd have to side with this article, this documentary seems to be full of veganism propaganda, maliciously and intentionally crafted to misconstrue statistics and studies to fit their agenda.
I'm not incredibly surprised to see these sort of documentaries being produced, as they're incredibly successful in spreading misinformation to the scientifically illiterate nowadays, as evidenced by social media.

It's pretty absurd to compare the health implications of eggs and cigarettes based solely on their cholesterol levels, why anyone would believe that eggs are more dangerous than smoking is honestly beyond me.
I'm reminded of the nonsense articles propagated throughout Facebook making claims that red meat is more dangerous than smoking based on their misunderstanding of the carcinogenic index.

I don't believe that simply not eating meat and using animal stuff will stop animal abuse. If it did then I would be a vegetarian myself. Instead what needs to be implemented is government regulations that just makes all forms of animal abuse and torture illegal. This would include companies not being able to use products that have come from exploited animals abroad. Sadly this kind of strict regulations is not likely to be enforced as our world relies on profit and there isn't as much profit in being nice to animals as there is having chickens so fat their legs break.

They'd care at least a tiny bit if you refuse to give them money for it. Business people will foam at their mouths at every chance they have to make money.

The owners don't usually work in their store. It's underpaid employees. The employees won't care because as Bimps said there are tons of other people who will still buy the product(s).

everytime i watch things like that i tell myself ill change my way of living but i really cant. meat is such a good product to get lot's of vitamins, without it you have to spend a lot of time finding replacements which can also be expensive. i do try to eat as few meat as possible, i eat it like 2 times a week.
but what's really necessary is regulation in my opinion, in my own country there's already some regulation, but i think there should be more. we cant threat humans badly, we should also not be allowed to do that to other animals.

It's kind've astounding to me, I've had 4 friends go vegan after watching it. Last movie that I can think of that seemed nearly as impactful (change in discourse & behavior of people) was Blackfish.
