    Isn't it great how many people came to a video called "Alissa of ARCH ENEMY On The Truth About Veganism" just to be annoyed that she's talking about veganism?

    I watched this video and was curious why she's so passionate about veganism so i watched the first documentary she mentioned 'Earthlings'. Straight after i became vegan as I was completely unaware of the truth about the meat and dairy industry.
    People who hate on this are just uneducated and if everyone took the time to acknowledge what they're eating/drinking on a daily basis they would too be vegan. The animal suffering is vile and must be stopped so thank you Alissa for educating me and changing my lifestyle. Vegan since 9th September :)

      @YoStefan No, and I really don't care since this band desperately tries to appea to people who are 50 years or older. I'm not a 50 year old man who wants to listen to Death Metal but but says that it is too heavy for him when he listens to real death metal, therefore I do not feel the need to further spend time informing myself about them. But a comment like this is totally okay, this is something else entirely and spending time on writing this definitely doesn't clash with what I said about it earlier.

    I'd say the hardest problems against veganism actually happen in less developed countries, such as Brazil. 'Choosing' amon milk isn't an option because it tends to cost twice as much compared to cow's milk. And we have to deal with money shortages and that kind of stuff so, yes, I do want a vegan lifestyle, but it's really hard on places where being vegan is still an elitist option :(
    But go on with this, girl, you're amazing for what you do and who you are. Being vegan is just another amazing thing you do ❤️

      @Danquebec01 9 месяцев назад +1

      As a vegan in a wealthy country, I think the important thing is reducing suffering as much as you are able to. If vegan food is too expensive and you're very limited on money, it's understandable you are going for the cheaper animal products. While buying cow milk, you should still be able to buy lentils, chikpeas or beans instead of cow meat. Also, you might be buying cow milk for the calcium, but don't forget that collards, bok choy, mustard greens, turnip greens and brocoli are also good sources of calcium (I don't which of those are cheap enough in your country).

      The Metal Worm -I'm just sick of vegans being self righteous and telling us meat eaters that we should eat boring old salad and other things we aren't that into. We got this far as humanity by being hunters, not by eating like wussy little Rabbits, and I don't want to go vegan, what does having no balls have to do with not wanting to succumb to crap meals ... I like what I like and intolerant fascists need to step back! lol And what we have done to our planet has to do with several other things before we even get into eating meat, so many other things like building bigger bombs, allowing communism to take over western nations, this new generation having no patience due to everything being at an instant for them, and they freak out when a download takes more than five seconds., not giving a damn about the past, who the hell hasn't seen the Goonies, millennials that's who, we are all doomed, those that don't learn from the past are doomed to repeat it. Lol Eating meat is not hurting our world, that came from a Liberal view point and I am far too intelligent for that crap.

    What a woman, it took me years to become fully vegan, its been 8 years now and i still crave meat sometimes but like Alissa said its an ethical stance, i don't preach about it and don't place anyone to my standards or judge anyone for eating meat but if anyone asks me why i am vegan then i will sure fucking tell them, its because i don't want to cause suffering to innocent animals, anyone who denies that the meat and diary industries are not absolute hell for the poor animals need to do some research, its a cruel, unforgiving world and it is not at all concerned with animal welfare.

    A few friends of mine are vegetarian and vegan. Though we disagree on what we eat we have an understanding about cruelty. I go out of my way to go to a family owned farm 1.5 hours out of my way to buy my meats from a farm that has its slaughter house a few miles away from their live stock that are raised to their peak maturity on well balanced diets and are well maintained through out their lifetime. Along with meats they also sell clothes and shoes made from skins and tools made from bones and cooking oils and candles made from fat so nothing about the animal is wasted

      The root of all that is wrong in our world today, is the belief, that some lives are worth less than others. I find it interesting, your belief that you have the self-appointed right, to take a life (or pay someone to), that wants nothing more than to live another day - and simply justify it with a few feel-good stories about all the wonderful treatment given to that life, who's only purpose was to eventually have it's throat slit before it's time, to be seen as nothing more than a commodity who's value you gauge in pounds and dollars.

    I live in a household where my sister is a lifelong vegan, my mum a vegetarian and I'm a meat eater. I tried vegetarianism for 6 weeks for my sister, but it was just too difficult for me personally. I didn't like the taste of any of the meat alternatives and ended up eating nothing but steamed vegetables for the entire 6 weeks. By the end of it I was counting down the minutes until I could eat again. Now I am "meat reducing" (if that's even a thing), and only eat meat once a week. Surely it's better than nothing? I do have to call out one thing from the video though. She says that veganism "doesn't cost anything", but that is absolutely false. Vegan foods are much, much more expensive - I guess because they aren't widely adopted at this time.

      See, this is a sensible take, I would say. I'm definitely not vegan (my brain does not work like that) but I've tried vegan diets and was never able to stay on them more than a few months. I just wound up eating beans, rice, and nuts (was not good). I would go out to vegan places, but there aren't many around, especially by where I work. To buy vegan food at a store (Whole Foods...) and cook it is much more expensive and time consuming, and I've never been able to cook tempeh or seitan and make them not taste really nasty. Being a working American who has always punched in and out for work makes it hard, but I could see someone living with their parents, working under the table, and being vegan easier. She's trying to advocate for vegan diets, but people in the know do know that it's a very difficult lifestyle change. Also, you can forget about eating foods that coworkers bring in for the team. If eating is at all a social thing for you, you better find vegans who are free and bearable to be around... Good luck. I've tried it, it's not for me.

      Veganism is a way of living which seeks to exclude, as far as is possible and practicable, all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose. It's not about going beyond what is possible for you. Also, focus on new foods. Fruit, greens, vegetables, etc. All foods. When you're eating everything, you will even forget about meat.

Fucking hilarious.

    I was vegetarian for almost a year. it's tough because you can't just eliminate meat from your diet, you need to re-think how you approach food and nutrition as a whole. long story short, you really need to cook your own food. this is especially true if you are vegan. in fact, if you are vegan, there is no way around it, you have to become your own chef. I gave up my vegetarianism because I was just consuming WAY too many carbohydrates. You go out to eat with friends, and you eat the chips and salsa, the bread, and the rice. before you know it, you just consumed enough carbs for an entire week within a 1 hour period. So, like I said, you need to re-think how approach food. it's a fantastic healthy way to live but you need to do your research and be open minded. I have no clue how she does it on the road, though I am sure Arch Enemy gets decent catering most of the time. If you are an indie band, most small cities, small towns, and rural towns WILL NOT have veg-friendly restaurants, and you're stuck eating truck stop food.

      @search895 4 года назад

      @@selenawilliams3261 it is such a fallacious statement to say "science says plants do suffer". Press and media say so but science never made such a big statement. Plants interact with their environment. Suffering is an animal trait, you need some animal parts like a nervous system and a brain to be able to suffer. I think the biological reason is that animals usually cant afford to lose limbs or blood but plants more often can lose branches or leaves or some fluids and recover.

I have met other vegans that are essentially the stereotype of vegans; they told me that I was eating an innocent animal. I told them to shove it, because I will not change to fit their beliefs. I told them that millennia ago, our ancestors didn't have that choice. Obviously they do not represent vegans. I just wanted to put this out there.
