A 🧵

There have been lots of debates recently about the meaning of Veganism.

Sadly many people still think Veganism is a diet.

Others think that Veganism is only about ending the farming of animals for food products.

But Veganism is much more than this. #mondaythoughts Veganism recognises that all creatures are sentient & that every living creature has the right to live their life free from exploitation, persecution & suffering.

#veganism #Sentience

A 🧵

Humans, Humans, Humans, there is no time to think!

The human population is going to reach 8 BILLION by the end of September.

Here are some facts about our species 👇 There are on average about 250 human babies born every minute – more than 130 million in a year.

It is projected that there will be 11 billion people by 2100.

A 🧵

The days are passing by & have you noticed that our governments only care about our species.

Growth & tax cuts but nothing about climate breakdown & how 1 million species are facing extinction. Humans are so selfish and greedy.

Our needs and wants are more important than the survival of anybody else.

1. This egg is 'chipping' If you look closely you can see the egg tooth of the little chick inside. The egg tooth is at the tip of all babies beaks and helps them break free from the shell.

This egg is in an incubator.

A thread about life and death. #Christmas #GoVegan 2. The little chick inside the egg rotates around the egg until he or she has made a removable lid. They are clever little babies & they cheep to call to their mums all through this process.

Sometimes in life we have to take a huge giant leap of faith.

We don't know what's on the other side but we jump anyway.

A thread: Many of us play safe. We are comfortable and secure.

We have all the bills paid & a cupboard well stocked.

Many others have nothing and have no idea where their next meal is coming from. They are cold & displaced.

I am surrounded by animal farming.

The red mark on this sheep has been left by a device attached to the ram to show that she has been impregnated.

#tuesdaymotivations So much of the worlds land in covered with animal farming.

Some of them are small.

I am full of tears today as during the storm last night a pine martin ended the lives of 4 of my old rescued chickens. They were all 8-10 years old & semi wild. There is one very scared hen left & I must catch her today & keep her safe tonight 😢 I feel heartbroken because they have blessed my life for a while. I let them become wild & free.

I love all animals & I think of the chickens that are tortured every day as I lay mine under a tree in their final resting place.

A thread about being extreme.

What does it mean?

noun
1. either of two abstract things that are as different from each other as possible

As a vegan I have been called extreme.

I cannot comprehend this when what non vegans do to sentient life in their billions is so extreme. I have also been called extreme by other vegans.

I am against ‘vegan washing’ by unethical deforesting corporate giants claiming they have created a vegan product. Any company that deforests & uses child labour is not vegan for me & many others.

Hello darkness, my old friend
I've got to live with you till the end
Because a human cruelly killing
Locked us in while they were sleeping.
And the vision of the sunshine and the rain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence

(Thread words by @kirthurgan please read ) In restless dreams I walked alone
Bloodstained floors, and screams of pain
'Neath the blowtorch and the shame
I turned my back on cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by flash of light
They slit my throat
And touched the sound of silence

This image is disgusting & lets face it it is something from hell. Live pigs walking among dead sheep waiting to be killed.

The arrow points to one of the rescued #53Pigs .This is thought to be Gandalf who is still terrified of humans.

Please read on... Every day we are posting out this incredible story because it needs to be seen and held up as a wonderful victory, in all that we fight to end.

Rescuing a total of 91 pigs is not something small.

What Sasha @BTWsanctuary has done is HUGE

An exclusive from @kirthurgan

Imagine there's no slaughter house
No piggies have to die
No gas chamber below us
Above us only sky

globalvegancrowdfunder.org/pigoneer-2000-… Imagine all the piggies
Living for today
Imagine there's no animal farm
No reason to do harm 🐷🐷

A story of hope for Easter 🐰

Once upon a time, deep in the heart of Wales there were 53 pigs trapped in this disgusting place below.

Standing waiting to die with nothing to eat but the guts of others.

Read on. A very brave woman heard about this place and the cruelty within.

She went out of her way to rescue them all.

But it was not easy because they had been condemned to die because of contamination.

But she fought long and hard and never gave up.

A thread

I am vegan because I want the total abolition of animal cruelty and exploitation. I am vegan because I want these animals saved from harm.

They were, 91 of them 🙌

People are probably wondering what this #Pigoneer thing is all about?

So this thread will explain.

Please read 👇 A year ago a very brave woman with a small sanctuary heard about a pig farm in Wales & an extreme cruelty case with an illegal slaughter house.

Here is one of the disgusting images.

A thread for vegans. Please read.

What is her life worth?

What if we could rescue her and all the others trapped alongside her?

We fight every day telling others to #govegan But what will this mean for the animals trapped in this system?

We say to the carnists... They will all go to sanctuaries in vegan world.

Do we think about how that will work?

A thread please read.

Let's talk about rescuing large amounts of animals from disgusting farms.

Would you support the rescue of all of these pigs? There is one incredible person on here who has done just that.

The 91 pigs she rescued though were in a worse state than the image above.

They had to stand with the dead and wait for their turn.

A thread.

From one Vegan to anyone who cares.

I have see a lot in my 58 years

Things have moved me & things have disgusted me

The latter lately more than ever

The beauty of life keeps me sane 🦋 36 years ago I gave up eating animals and walked a lone path.

I have been ridiculed and called all sorts.

I have stuck to this path regardless.

I have made mistakes & we learn from experiencing all that we are not.

Where's my mum? Why is my friend not moving?

Dear vegans this tweet says it all.

After reading it please watch the video in the next tweet and then please join the pig feed club.

LET'S SHOW THE WORLD that as a community we can unite to collectively feed a herd of pigs rescued from a disgusting pig unit.

Me again👋banging on about 91 rescued pigs.

Thread please read👇

I personally have around 8000 followers, give or take a bot. Would just 500 of you please sign up to be part of The Pigoneer 2000 Club? #Pigoneer #Vegan Why am I doing this every single day? What's in it for me?

I am doing this because I am a vegan & I want to end animal agriculture. I want ALL animals rescued & placed in safe homes. I want total animal liberation.

There is nothing in this for me, because it is about them.
