As a historian [and an internationally published Holocaust historian], I agree completely with this statement. If we ignore the past, it will rise again to consume us. Don't let another 50,000,000 people die because the greatest liar in history sits on the WH throne.

It's TIME Animal rights are the greatest social justice issue of our time. The use of animals harms them, harms our environment and harms us. The solution is veganism. #AnimalRights #art #vegan #artist

Every image, every example, every horror humans inflict on non human species, is a reminder and reason why humans need to find a better and far less cruel way to live. Only vegans see this and act accordingly. Everyone else just shrugs. They don't care. Vegans have evolved and genuinely care.

'... honors the equality of every soul'. These powerful key words, just six of them, are among the most important on Earth. If all humanity honoured all species equally, humans could, for the first time, truly claim to have discovered compassion.

Currently constructing a fleet of spaceships to save humanity from this environmentally doomed planet. I have a spanner and a blueprint, so nothing can stop me. Only vegan food will be served. ETA: 25 light years, so bring a neck cushion & slippers. Tickets free. MAGGOT-HATS need not apply.

I'm more than delighted to announce that my new novel, 'Cafe Puccini', is drawing a wonderful public response, and I'm receiving exceptionally lovely emails and messages from readers internationally. Here is the latest five-star review on Amazon.

This is just such an important story. Our non-human companions, with whom we share this world, can do so much for us in so many ways. Humans regard animals as lesser beings, but they all serve a purpose in life and their compassionate interaction should inspire us to treat them as loving equals.

Yes this is real. 44 years as a vegan has taught me some valuable lessons. Vegans and non human animals live in a dystopian world. Animals, generally speaking, fear humans and regard them as terrorists. Carnists are intransigent and defend their 'right' to eat corpses with delusional reasoning.

Hitler constructed his concentration camps where the prying eyes of the German public were unlikely to see them. Poland featured heavily in his mask of death-deception. Guantanamo looks like it's following that path. [PS. I am a Holocaust historian].

It would be a perfect world if we all stopped eating the dead.

So many people write poetry, but for most of those poets their words become lost, or remain in the single birth-chamber where they were given life, and where few will ever see them Yet poems are like the woodgrain of a sideboard. They have both beauty and inherent functionality.

The racist government now engineering mass chaos and revolt in the U.S. plans to use that chaos to take America back to the slavery days. American apartheid is part of the overall plan for total control where white supremacists will rein with gun and whip. This is not a drill.

Regan was courageous and dedicated. She literally died attempting to protect animals against the horrors inflicted upon them by humans. In every sense, and in every fibre of her being, Regan epitomised the word 'heroic'.

Heroic people are rare, but the men and women who so courageously defended nature in this way were brave and resolute beyond description. They were Saints of the Woodlands.

I can't understand why this hasn't been reposted a million times. America is facing its greatest constitutional and physical crisis. As a Holocaust historian I am warning that there is nothing ahead except death & destruction for the whole world if the American people sleepwalk into the future.

People who eat lobsters boiled alive should be forced to stick their finger in the water first to see if it's hot enough.

Oh YES!!! When humans finally understand that animals are sentient, and that they speak to us in their own way, the whole world will change for the better. We will stop exterminating them and treat them as equals.

This would really upset non vegans……if they could read.

I fully endorse these comments. I'm now old enough to call myself a time-traveller and can attest categorically that, over the past fifty years or so, humans have lost something important [understanding and empathy], and gained something undesirable [selfishness]. There is now a blunt edge on life.

America presently seems like a circus full of clowns, cowboys, knife-throwers and coconut-stall shysters. Sadly, the ring-master and his oafish sidekick, Donald, are now in the process of burning down the Big-Top with everyone still inside.
