  • Unnatural Vegan: Why Everyone Hates Eisel Mazard.
    Jan 2 2025

    You don't choose to be loved or hated: you choose to be known or unknown. And if it is inevitable, in choosing to make yourself known, that you also make yourself hated, then you must decide if you will be hated for reasons shallow or profound —if you will dispute things that are trivial or of great significance —with honesty or deception —with or without wearing a mask. The conflict between myself and "Swayze" (Unnatural Vegan) does in large part explain how I became such a notorious figure in the vegan movement, and it is linked to several different political, philosophical and ethical controversies that have never been resolved.

  • This is the End of the World: the Failure of the Vegan Movement.
    Dec 23 2024

    Solar panels and wind farms aren't going to make the necessary difference: if the vegan movement fails, this is the end of the world. Some call it "global warming", some call it "climate change". Some prefer to speak more specifically about carbon PPM (parts per million) in the atmosphere, rising ocean levels, and so on. It's a simple problem with a simple solution, from a vegan perspective, and yet tremendously complex from so many other perspectives that fail to recognize the centrality of meat production (animal agriculture) to the problem and solution both.
