African Americans with a history of slavery become insulted when exploited and abused animals are compared to slaves. Jews whose family experienced the Holocaust are outraged when factory farms are compared to death camps. Women, who point to a long history of sexist oppression, resent it when the forced artificial insemination of cows is referred…

Hillary may pay lip service to animals and put up a lame animal welfare page on her website, but she is the animals’ worst nightmare. Worse than Donald Trump, and he does not give a shit about animals. Hillary is the animals worst nightmare because she supports policies which kill hundreds of millions of animals…
The most radical elements within the animal movement are thought to be liberationists. I know and respect Ronnie Lee, the founder of the ALF (Animal Liberation Front), but critics of animal liberationists correctly argue that the few animals released or facilities damaged really accomplish little and cost the movement a great deal in lost activists,…

Drawing historical parallels, I frequently discuss the fact that conservatives have never been right about anything. Conservatives opposed American Independence, they supported slavery, they opposed women’s suffrage, child labor laws, workplace…

The Earth is 4.6 billion years old. Scaled to 4.6 years, humans have been here 4 minutes. Capitalism has been here ten seconds. In that ten seconds, humans have destroyed half the world’s forests. In the last two seconds humans have killed off half the world’s wildlife. Capitalism is the most pernicious evil ever to…
