Recommended Posts for language and terminology (in animal industries)

Close up of the snout of a horse licking his lips with a bright pink tongue.

Bestiality. Even the word itself is a taboo! Most people think bestiality is some rare perversion in the darkest corners of the Internet. But what if bestiality is actually a part of your everyday life?

Sex With Animals: The Blurred Lines of Bestiality

The text "What cage-free really means" next to a hen sitting on a nest of eggs.

What does "cage-free" eggs mean? In the simplest terms, cage-free means exactly what it sounds like: laying hens are never caged. But the simplicity of this label ends there.

What Does Cage-Free Eggs Mean?

A group of cows scattered across a lush green hillside sloping downwards into a vibrant blue ocean, the visual embodiment of idealized animal agriculture and human practices.

Most people are against factory farming—but what about grass-fed, free-range, humane? Nowhere is animal agriculture more idealized than the rolling green landscape of Ireland. Let’s take a close look at the very best we have to offer and see if the ideals live up to their promise.

The Best We Have To Offer? | How Ireland Exposes “Humane” Farming

The image shows a whole, dead, chicken. Its feathers have been removed and it’s flesh roasted. It is posed in such a way that it might appear alluring.

Do Animals WANT to be eaten? According to commercials, apparently so! From smiling suicidal animal mascots, to homicidal acts against other animals, to self-cannibalism, all the way to erotic seducation of their killers.

Arching across the top in large yellow lettering are the words “Poop Challenge”. They are separated slightly but the image of a Ben and Jerry’s “Chocolate Fudge Brownie” ice cream carton. On the top of the carton is a large poop emoji. To the left of the carton is a lawn sign with United States Environmental Protection Agency insignia upon it.

Take the POOP Nutrient Challenge and get paid $30K for your crappy ideas! The EPA, along with Ben & Jerry’s, the USDA, and a host of other heavyweights have launched a competition for craptastic concepts to deal with the dung overtaking our planet.

Emily Moran Barwick of Bite Size Vegan is shown looking into the camera.

This is the greatest lie ever told. Whispered to us as children. A deception so deeply entrenched in our collective unconscious we buy into it without question. Become complicit in its propagation. This is the lie we tell ourselves. Listen closely. Unlearning isn't easy.

The Greatest Lie Ever Told | Slam Poem

The words "You have been lied to" to the left of Emily Moran Barwick of Bite Size Vegan delivering a persuasive speech about veganism.

What would you do if you found out that everything you’ve been told since you were a child was a lie? A lie powerful enough to manipulate you into taking part in horrific and barbaric acts; to alter your perception so severely that murder appears mundane, and compassion becomes extreme.

The Extremism Of Veganism | Exposing The Greatest Lie [Banned Speech]

Against a dark background a white egg is shown balancing upon its end. The side of the egg has a small, open crack in it, near the top. Out of this crack a beam of bright light is seen to be streaming across and out of frame to the left.

A shocking expose on the deep corruption, shameless lies, and illegal activities of the egg Industry in the United States. You won’t believe the lengths the American Egg Board, USDA, and egg industry as a whole will go to for a profit.

The Great Egg Conspiracy: Lies, Corruption & Kevin Bacon

A large random in size, value and position set of green numbers are shown against a dark background.

The numbers in this video are shocking. We are great at counting calories, measuring profits, quantifying just about anything. But when it comes to knowing our impact on other beings, we fall short. How many animals do we eat every year?

How Many Animals Do We Kill Every Year?

A stunningly beautiful deer stag is shown in an autumn setting with trees in the background.

One of the most cited justifications for hunting is that it’s necessary for managing out-of-control deer populations. When you go even just below the surface of this hunting myth, it’s painfully evident that deer hunting itself is responsible for overpopulation issues.

Is Deer Hunting Necessary for Population Control?
