Total liberation? More like partial liberation
Granting rights to nonhuman animals requires that we become vegans and stop consuming their flesh and secretions. This podcast engages in anti-veganism by reducing veganism to a consumer boycott, pushing the inefficiency objection to veganism, noble savage trope-ing to justify hunting and fishing, redefining speciesism, talking about how the vegan movement has failed when it's basically just started (see sociologist Roger Yates' analysis). The large animal advocacy organizations have never promoted veganism as the moral baseline. All in all a very anthropocentric podcast uninterested in animal rights. Not recommended. Listen to podcasts where the hosts care enough about nonhuman animals to not personally pay for their torture, exploitation and killing instead.Read full review »
