earthlings just tell you the truth first

First of all, this movie is really great. But in addition to its real shock, I hope that friends who have watched it can try to think about some questions together: After you watched this movie, did you begin to love animals because you started to calmly reflect on our way of life, or because you saw The bloody picture feels that "small animals are very pitiful"?
——I don't dislike the latter (because it is a good start to make the audience feel this is a good start for this movie), but I hope that everyone can rationally think of more potential problems. I'm just a student, and I can't analyze the social forms of modern humans, the overview of the earth's ecology, the general situation of Chinese meat and poultry and non-staple food, humans and nature.


I just started to wonder if we could face "reality" more rationally after seeing Earthlings?


I know that I can choose not to eat meat in the future, but I believe that in the short term, the animal husbandry industry will also have its "objective development law"... and will the problem be solved in this way?
I also believe that most people, even if they are not cruel to their pets, will not really understand your cat or dog, and give them the clothes you like, human-like (...In fact, many people treat their own children in this way. , Alas |||)......
I absolutely believe that after watching this movie, the zoo will not be closed......
I believe that the chicken farm will not improve the technology to give local anesthesia to each chick in the short term......
I even believe that, Someone would first hug their own puppy when watching this movie, and then this person would suddenly see a gecko crawling into the house, he would hold the gecko tail and throw the gecko down the balcony in disgust...
I believe now Of human babies will also drink the honey extracted from the complete destruction of a large family of baby bees. Their book says "bees are hard-working elves, making honey for people"...


We like this and "go to the zoo to love animals." "What's the difference...


Then let's calm down and think about it slowly. Don't be the same as watching tragic movies. Everyone is the same earthlings. Except for humans, there are also unacceptable cruelty and rudeness among other animals. It's just that people are lucky. To evolve into this way, we must be human.

You have just started to understand the truth, and there is still a long way to go.

At least now you can choose to take care of your pets, don’t wear fur, don’t eat shark fins, park your car when you see a puppy crossing the road, and don’t hurt bats and geckos when they are parked in your house without disturbing you. Don’t catch the grasshopper and break off its legs, don’t buy cats and puppies sold on the street, don’t take pictures with the big tigers, big dolphins in the zoo...


if you just think of small animals (then replace them with big animals) = =|||) It is very distressing to be mutilated. If you want to pet them to protect them, you may not understand the dignity and pain of animals, or the meaning of "earthlings", please read it again.


In addition, communication between humans and humans should be easier than communicating with animals. In addition to caring for animals, I hope that everyone can tolerate and care for those who are different from yours and the disadvantaged after watching this film, and be less rude, or It's good to think about "Am I always hurting and suffering others?"...

Earthlings quotes

  • [first lines]

    title card: earth-ling n. - One who inhabits the earth.

    Narrator: Since we all inhabit the earth, we are all considered earthlings. There is no sexism, racism, or speciesism in the term 'earthling'. It encompasses each and every one of us: warm- or cold-blooded, mammal, vertebrate or invertebrate, bird, reptile, amphibian, fish and human alike.

  • Narrator: It is the human earthling who tends to dominate the earth, oftentimes treating other fellow earthlings and living beings as mere objects. This is what is meant by 'speciesism'. By analogy with racism and sexism, speciesism is a prejudice or attitude or bias in favor of the interests of the members of one's own species and against those of members of other species.
