Vegan YouTubers Survey

Post by kennediegiovanna »

1. in the earlier months of this year, around June I would assume
2. I don't really have the ability to care about animals too much, but I believe it is unnecessary to kill billions of them each year, and partially for health, if such claims I have heard are true
3. no
4. no
5. depends
6. I would not personally do so, but I think those are better options than average meat eating habits
7. yes

Heya Kennedie,

Welcome to the forum, could you link your YouTube channel? And I'll add you to the wiki.

This can be a place to discuss your answers too, is the assume part because it's difficult to remember? Congrats either way on sticking to your principles even if you don't have that close affinity for nonhuman animals.

And to your answer to No.5 "depends," what were you thinking of in the positive? I know a group Seattle Solidarity who do public phone blockades to get stolen money back from dodgy landlords, which I'm sympathetic to, but also cautious about what other militancy could be perceived as acceptable from that.

a-bas-le-ciel recently raised the question of Mexie's possible alignment with a violent communist ideology, I think it has more to do with there being few socialist voices on YouTube, but I do think they should publicly distance themselves from the FinishBolshevick for their unquestioning support of for example the Syrian regime and Marxist groups which fight with them.

They don't think they could use violence themselves as a vegan buddhist, they question the punching of Richard Spencer for giving Nazis attention, but they wouldn't be quick to denounce property damage during an important protest and would be cautious about denouncing cases where an oppressed class might have had to use violence in self-defense to avoid being killed themselves.

1. When did you go vegan? About June of 2016

2. How would you rank these reasons for being vegan? Ethics, Personal Health, Environmental

3. Do you condone violent animal rights or vegan activism?
Yes

4. Do you condone non-violent activism that's still illegal?
No

5. Do you condone controversial but legal acts like shaming (or harassment like hate mail) as activism?
No

6. Whether or not you would eat it or regard it as healthy, do you consider "freegan" meat (from road kill, or garbage), or future in-vitro meat grown from cell cultures without animal products ("clean meat") as morally acceptable?
No

7. Do you take or recommend others take supplemental B-12?
Yes

1. May 17'
2. Personal Health, environmental, then animal ethics.
3. No
4. No
5. No
6. Though I personally would not consume and animal found dead or items from a garbage.... I disapprove of wastefulness, therefore I can accept and understand another's consumption of such item(s). In regards to the laboratory grown meat I am hesitant and would need more research done on the long time consumption of such a product.
7. Yes ; recommend a multivitamin to every age.

Heya guys, it's really okay if you just wanted to fill the survey out for fun and we can maybe split some of them off into a general vegan public survey, but if you do have YouTube channels could you link the names or addresses in a comment below? That way I can add them to the wiki and it will be a sort-able resource for people deciding what channels to view.
