Excellent conversation. These two seemed very receptive and interested. I also think you ended the conversation at the right time and left them with a positive momentum.
I think this is a good approach! My partner and I have been mostly vegan since the beginning of April. He’s a PhD student and someone talked to him on campus & he actually watched a video about the dairy industry that made him determined to become as close to vegan as possible. Before that, we were using “humanely raised” (not really sure what that means exactly) animal products but cutting down. We started trying alternatives to dairy for a while before April and in incorporating them into our diets, like oat milk creamer bc I am a devotee of creamy coffee! I love the barista style oat milk now! Anyway, all of this to say, I didn’t ever think I could be vegan but it’s not so hard! It’s actually been quite fun finding new recipes and ways to eat a really satisfying diet. Idk what i was so afraid of. I look forward to seeing more of your interactions!
James! Brilliant! You and other young folks who are using thoughtful speech and non-aggressive engagement in advocating for animals or for human rights etc give me such hope for the future! Keep it up! One Love - Sandy
Let me know your thoughts! :D Tell me what you think about this kind of outreach :) And PLEASE SHARE! - I've produced it to cater to non-vegans, new to the conversation :) - Let's show them the diversity of activism that exists!
I love all the new outreach activists out there now a days, Big shout to you all 🎉 but please share your 🎤 or have a separate microphone for yourself, I was struggling even on high volume to hear the gentleman answers to your questions😊 and I really was interested in certain parts of his conversation 😮 But I still think you were great! Thank you for speaking up for animals 👈💯💯💚💚
I love the relaxed conversation, although this gentleman knew alot, we his amazing he still contributes towards the slaughters, its great you aloud him to talk more about it and listened, I think a lot of people go on the attack and are triggered because some activist are quite forceful in there questioning which then gets no where.
Great work! I was like this guy for 38 years (intuitively knew vegans had a point and wasn't living in alignment with my morals) then finally one day a switch was flipped and I found the resolve needed to put thoughts into action! That was 10 years ago now, one of the best decisions I ever made. Let's hope this conversation was the catalyst for Alan/Aled!
Perfectly done! This seems like an extremely effective method, plus you had a very receptive participant. Cheers to him and I hope he chooses to live compassionately from now on!
🌻Thanks for sharing your outreach video. I noticed you used the term 'livestock' to refer to the animals. To help non-vegan malzoans see them as individuals rather than commodities, it might be helpful to avoid terms like 'livestock,' which can reflect the language used by slavemasters to depersonalize them. Just a thought to consider for future interactions!
i think you definitively left an impression and planted that seed. you should have some kind of email address on the card to notify you if they go vegan :) love the cinematic style of your videos and the way you do them. i'm very grateful for what you do for the animals
@@JamesKiteActivism you did well. As they say different strokes for different folks, some need a more chatty approach to get them to think, some need a kick in the backside. It’s good to see that you can adapt according to your audience
It's easier when you're not being told you're destined for hell! ;) aha …Thanks for your thoughts and subscription :) I'll get back to your other comment ;)
Thank you James! Great guy, just needs some reminders. I think it is great to talk about the animals, the environment and the health because each person is going to be awaken by different nuggets of truth and I love how you bring it back. 💚🌿🌱✨
Great work, James! 😊 These two are open-minded. I hope this conversation resonates with them and your wider audience. Love the way you have an image of the card you hand out- such a great idea!
I dunno man. I just really don't think any of us should be advocating from a health/environment standpoint. It's almost a mockery to the victims you so rightly point out and prioritise. If you haven't already, it's worth checking out what Paul Bashir has to say on this matter ✌🏽 But overall, what you're doing is tremendous! 💪👏
If we destroy the environment and damage the climate, we also harm animals. By destroying habitats we destroy lives. This “almost a mockery to the victims” reasoning therefore doesn’t make sense to me at all. Not to mention that if you’re in it for the animals, anything truthful that might help is okay. I’ve met vegans who originally went plant based for their health, now they’re in it for the animals. That’s a win for the animals, isn’t it?
Thanks for your thought. I principally agree with Paul's take. But in terms of advocacy, I think building the case for the environment and health can only help... so long as it is brought back to seeing things from the victim's perspective (as I try to do at 08:38). Diversity in advocacy will only help get through to a wider spectrum of people. Usually, if I talk about the environment, it's because someone's brought it up. In calling it out as off-topic (which it is), we risk having people think that its debatable - which it isn't! aha Veganism really does win on all fronts - so let's tell 'em so! Thanks for the love
Hmmm, 'cats don't give much as dogs'. Turned off after hearing a Vegan activist agree with a meat eater over that . My cat was loving & emotional towards me than any dog.
There's little harm in being agreeable to build rapport. Plus, I even clarify: "generally" And it's generally true. Cats generally don't give people much enthusiasm like dogs do. I'm sure your cat loved you
I know a vegan activist who doesn’t love animals. He says that not being an animal lover doesn’t mean we should harm animals. To him, it’s a matter of ethics, not of sentiment.
No offense, but you'll never get anyone to agree with you who isn't already on your moral framework if you're going to be overly combative in arguing with every single point they make. This is why many people have an unfairly negative view of the vegan community. But if you're just looking for a vegan to OWN a meat eater while you stand on a pedestal and disregard people you believe are morally beneath you, all the more power to you
After him agreeing with you for ten minutes, about what happens to animals and even his personal responsibility for it, why didn't you ask for the immediate commitment for him, personally, to go vegan? If you consider this a good conversation your standards are pretty low. Getting people to agree with us that they ought to think about it is easy and pretty useless on its own. Making the call to action, that today must be the last day they contribute to animals' exploitation and death, is a bit harder, but without doing it the whole conversation you had before isn't likely to be useful. Don't give them a card and hope the documentaries will do the job you failed to do. The moment where he is most likely to make the commitment is when he's standing there talking to you, when you're actually there to reinforce that it's the right thing to do and answer any hesitations he may have about it.
I completely disagree. Your insulting attitude and vast array of baseless assumptions warrants no extended response. Get out on the street and do it your way. It's not all about that one individual and there's no one way to do activism.
@@JamesKiteActivism More mature people do not take a call to action as an insult. I have been doing what I'm suggesting here every weekend, and that is how I know.
So now I'm immature? lol I did not specify what was insulting. A fool could deduce what the insulting portions of your comment were. That's quite a pathetic strawman you have there. There are key differences. You are showing footage. I am not. I also doubt you have the statistical data to know what THE way to do activism is. Plus, as I said: It's not all about that one individual. All forms of activism should be celebrated and not arrogantly belittled by those on the same side. You are perpetuating this purity culture veganism is consistently tagged with. It's not productive. I celebrate your activism. Do not insult me or my methods when I'm actively doing what I can. Your attitude serves to discourage others to do activism.
@@JamesKiteActivism Dude, you asked people to let you know what you think, I pointed out a deficiency in your approach and the effects of it, and told you a way to fix it. Take the advice and do better.
Your criticism is both unsubstantiated and insulting. You have no way of determining the effects of my methods. Just more purity bullshit that ignores my points. Do better.
Loving the videos James! This one was great they were so receptive to you 💚
💚🫡 back at ya b!

Nice technique.
Very creative way to do outreach. Excellent work.
Thank you for caring, James. We so need more people doing outreach.
We certainly do!

It's exactly the same as that muscle bound tosser in Amsterdam. Nothing new BORING
Great work

If he's advocating for human rights, where's my right to eat meat?
Great conversation! ✌️🌱

great activism!
Thanks James. Enjoyed this. Hope they check out the resources you left them with. 🌱
I hope so too!
this convo gave me a hope for humanity! i loved when he brought up how we should educate people about the treatment of animals
Loved this convo. You built great rapport with them. Keep it going!
Perfectly done! This seems like an extremely effective method, plus you had a very receptive participant. Cheers to him and I hope he chooses to live compassionately from now on!
They were particularly nice! :D Yes! The method, has people seeing things through the eyes of the victims before challenging them.
