Propagandhi—Band Interview

[naturalistmind]

i became a vegan partially thanks to these guys, however i disagree with petas methods.

[madvegan66]

Omnis who try to prove veganism wrong in Youtube comments. Brilliant.

[apoopshootriot]

ok first off...the fact that people eat meat doesn't make anyone crazy or stupid. It sounds like they're more the kind of people who are vegetarians just so they can feel separated from the general public from which they have some sort of disconnection. And testing certain medicines on animals definitely helps humanity. It sounds like at 18 he reverted to the mentality of a child. You're not in neverland anymore. Welcome back to reality, the world isn't perfect....hippies

[aaronmschaefer]

@apoopshootriot being unnecessarily cruel to animals, however, does make you crazy (just talk to a factory farm worker sometime). The rest of your comment is gibberish besides the derogatory "hippies" comment, to which I can only say one thing: I may be a punk, I may be a hippie, I may be a degenerate, but at least I'm not a murderer.

[malleusss555]

such an incredible band, wish i could see them live

[1imesub]

These guys genuinely enjoy writing and playing music... even if they weren't making any money, they'd still be doing it and still be doing benefits for animal rights, etc. One of my top 10 favorite bands, without question.

I think that the majority of my beliefs on this matter stems from how we as beings of this earth have lost our predator-prey relationship between us and and the animals we eat. I am a vegetarian (bordering vegan), but I do believe that carnivorous and omnivorous behaviour is natural. The problem is how the commoditization of our food has affected the way we as human beings treat animals, which is completely unjustifiable. They should not be viewed as our puppets or our luxuries. They are beings.

[PmacArpium]

Meat is still murder, dairy's still rape!

In my opinion, consuming life to preserve your own is A-OK. Vegans do it all the time too. If you eat anything at all, it probably was once alive. It doesn't matter if it doesn't have eyes or legs.

[irishpr1ncessx3]

@iminthisvideo That's a pretty piss poor rationalization at best. Animals have a desire to preserve their own life as well as the ability to feel pain - kind of like you. Vegetables on the other hand do not. There's a pretty big difference between a carrot and a chicken, don't you think?

[iminthisvideo]

@irishpr1ncessx3 Plants (including vegetables) certainly do have a desire to preserve their own life. Many plants contain or emit chemicals in an attempt to deter predators or alert others of the nearby danger. In a way, it could also be said that plants do feel pain, considering that pain is basically a way for an organism to detect when it's body is taking damage. A chicken and a carrot are very different, but they both spend day after day trying to survive long enough to reproduce.

[FSdriskey]

@iminthisvideo you're actually mistaken in your logic here. Vegetation and mammals have a symbiotic relationship with each other. They're co-dependent on each other for survival. Simply broken down, vegetation grows edible sustenance, which is then eaten by a mammal providing it with vitality, energy, and nutrition. In return, upon retrieving this plant-based life-force, the seeds of the plant are then spread (in an amazing diversity of ways depending on the plant) and dispersed back in the soil

[FSdriskey]

@iminthisvideo (CONTINUED)... thus allowing the plant to reproduce and continue the circle of life. EXAMPLE: eat the apple, chuck the core, right? Well that core is filled with seeds. When it's 'chucked' you are giving those seeds the opportunity to penetrate the soil and reproduce. Such a symbiotic and cyclical relationship is not present in the consumption of animals.

[FuelledByHamish]

@iminthisvideo Just you teach me how to photosynthesise, then I’ll get right on that! Until then, I’ll just have to settle for being a horrible, hypocritical plant-killer.

[Vegopunx91]

GO VEGAN! Save the animals and yourself!

[budihollijr]

I think every interview I've seen with Chris is him saying relatively uplifting things but he always looks scary =O.

[jrhcp31]

this video is the perfect length.

[fzisjp]

is this Chris Hannah, in the hoodie?

[jrhcp31]

indeed it is

[kinetiksilence]

yes it is

[TheitaniofRome]

@fzisjp he talks the most the other guy is the bass player whos name escapes me

[ed677]

This video sparked a journey for me which led to being vegan. One year and counting. What he says about it being an epiphany is so true. Thanks Propagandhi

[meatisflesh]

I love propaghandi - It's hard getting their music in England though!

[LEEDSmix]

i have the same problem!

[TheHasselBoff]

I-tunes have most of their albums, I'm from england too, but i have to admit it's nicer to put on a cd in my opinion than just be given access to a file!

[sheehanjordan]

canadian music, nothing better

[jo5377]

one of the best band ever

[godinay]

Awsome new music, with strong meaning behind it...

[antipatriotmissile]

i love propaghandi
