There are many people who changed to vegetarian after watching this film, and regretted that they had eaten meat for so many years. So did I, but at first I became vegetarian from the perspective of health preservation. At that time, I still looked at animals with indifference. This is environmental protection, but the human heart is also fleshy. I had to stop many times while watching the film to appease my fluctuating emotions and continuous tears. I also thought of a cat I raised a long time ago, just that cat It's long gone, leaving me with constant regret.
I used to think that protecting animals and opposing eating meat was nonsense, because the law of nature is that the weak will eat the strong. At such a brutal and maddening level, I couldn't help snorting coldly: This is the spirit of all things!

The animals we eat suffer from all kinds of torture from birth, and the resentment is too deep. Even the dead end is a corpse full of hatred and sorrow.

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.
