"In the iron cages of a fur farm, countless foxes are huddled together. They know nothing of "fashion," nor do they know that their fur will become someone's collar. All they know is the pain when the steel trap clamps down on their leg; the pain when the knife slices through ->

Like handbags 😡 Cunt fHarmers 👺 #LiveVegan do no harm 🙏

This proves humane slaughter is an oxymoron. Even the “best” slaughter/stunning methods are still barbaric.

Please click the link below to help VegMediaWatch call out anti-#vegan bias and amplify fair reporting in the mainstream media: 1. A Vox investigation shines a spotlight on dairy calf abuses that are hidden from the public, including intensive confinement and isolation. 2. The Wall Street Journal omits an important victim in its coverage of a slaughterhouse closure. 3. An op-ed writer for The Guardian critiques efforts by European lawmakers to prevent #plantbased food companies from using "meat" on their labels. vegmediawatch.org/vox-exposes-fa…

In a @voxdotcom story about a 2,183 person taste test comparing dairy to non-dairy products, @KennyTorrella also describes the negative effects of #dairy production on the animals, the workers and the planet. Thank you #Vox for reporting on topics that most mainstream media outlets ignore at the behest of their meat and dairy advertisers. cc: @caitlindewey @jcameronpeters @PaigeBlank

In a @newrepublic article about a Democratic senatorial candidate who denied his #veganism in order to protect his campaign, reporter @jan_dutkiewicz explains why true public servants should be embracing #plantbased eating. Thank you #NewRepublic for informing your readers about the environmental and ethical implications of meat production. cc: @emilyecooke @rkearney @heathershorn @dceiver @AdrienneMahsa

Here I am in 2006 on Lafayette Street encouraging the city to explore making the striped #bikenyc lane into a protected one. It took a long while but they did. And now @NYC_DOT is going to make it TWO-WAY and substansially widen it! If you had told 20 years ago @PurpleClarence we'd get a 2-way super wide protected path through the heart of lower Manhattan....wow! Just WOW! @OpenPlans @StreetsblogNYC @bfurnas @vinbarone @saraklind @jonorcutt @BobaCyclist @BrentToderian @Jonathan_Maus @chabot_jackson @RegionalPlan @GridlockSam @AndrewGiambrone @gregmocker @TransAlt @Gothamist

The Sheriff just issued a statement that Ridglan is exempt from cruelty laws because it's involved in "teaching" and "research." This is a lie. The vast majority of Ridglan dogs are in production barns. Does this look like "teaching"? Or an abusive puppy mill?

Workers in Fresno County, they are prunning Pistacho trees using saws on a pole. They share that by the end of the day it gets very tiring since they have their arms up all day. They earn CA minimum wage for this work. #WeFeedYou

In 2021, @nytimes restaurant critic @pete_wells wrote a mean-spirited review about a prominent #plantbased restaurant that felt more like an attack on #veganism and a defense of meat than a legitimate critique. The review undoubtedly compromised the business. Three years later, Mr. Wells switched to a plant-heavy diet for his health. Why did the #NYTimes publish such an unfair and hostile review in the first place? cc: @nikitarbk @tanyasic @emilyweinstein @farrellnyt @mikiebarb @park_madis_ell

They trust us, we betray them. Abolish animal testing.

An important message from @RickyGervais. “Healthy rescue pets wait weeks, months, years while pet shops sell sick pups. It's so wrong" "This weekend, plan a visit to your local rescue shelter, where your new best friend is waiting for you" ~ Ricky Gervais 🐾. #Rescue #AdoptDontShop #Adopt #RescuedIsBest

“fix this pothole” say less. 8,000 filled. on saturday alone.

@NYC_DOT Please fix the massive pothole on the Harlem River Greenway, just below 10th & Dyckman! It’s been there almost 20 years now. @NYC_DOT @NYCMayor

The cover-up is so bad at Ridglan that the govt ignored Jane Goodall—Jane Goodall, for heaven's sake!—when she wrote in WaPo about how the abuse must end. These are her words. When you're on the wrong side of Jane Goodall on animal abuse, rethink your position. Period.

In news stories about slaughterhouse strikes, media outlets invariably report on all of the stakeholders except the cows. This @WSJ article mentions the workers, their families, the union, the customers, the marketplace and the "processing plant" (slaughterhouse) - everyone but the individuals who are killed. @PatThomas1318 - please consider including the real slaughterhouse victims in your agriculture and food business coverage. cc: @emmatuckerWSJ @DanColarusso13

Here's video of the deadly crash that killed a delivery cyclist and injured four others.
