VEGAN STRAIGHT EDGE
VEGAN and STRAIGHT-EDGE is a NEVER ENDING WAR.
A lot of people do not know about or have bean told some BS by some one else so guess i will tell you.
Straight-Edge.
Straight edge is something that got started, well umum there are many opinions on what scene it got started in so ya, you pic one . The people that follow straight edge do not do...
DRUGS,
ALCOHOL,
SMOKING,
AND
CASUAL SEX.
SxE inspired by the band Minor threat has spread around the world. Some sxe are christians or hare krishnas as well as other religions. Ian Mackayes group the teen idles made a bried west-coast tourning in 1980.
The group performed in Maduhay Gardens club since all of the members of the band were under 21.
The members wrote an "X" on their hands with a marker as a warning to bartenders that such people should not be served alcohol.
Mackays second hardcore punk band minor threat in the early-mid 1980s.
Minor threats song "out of step" and "straight edge" started the sxe lifestyle.
For some straight edgers involves refraining from casual sex.
Many sXe persons believes in sex within caring relationships rather than one night stands.
No one is sXe simply because they don't drink, smoke, or do drugs it requires an active decision and participation in the subulture.
At a hardcore show it is common practice to make an X on the hands.
Some people interpret this as a symbol of Ian MacKaye's "Don't Smoke, Don't Drink, Don't Fuck".
Others interpret the three Xs as "Body", "Mind", and "Soul".
Many adopters of the sXe lifestyle get a tattoo of the X symbol on parts of the body or wearing it on clothing, pins,etc.
Attaching the X to your name or a bands name is common pratice of sXe.
VEGAN
A vegan excludes animal flesh
(meat, poultry, fish and seafood)
Animal products
(eggs and dairy)
And usually excludes
honey
Also the wearing and use of animal products
(leather, silk, wool, lanolin, gelatin)
Some vegans also refuse to eat yeast products.
Produced in intensive factory farms, where animals suffer from confinement at the age of 6 months.
Cows barely see their first birthday.
Chickens and turkeys raised for meat are kept
in huge, overcrowded, putrid sheds.
Chickens have their beaks sliced off with a hot knife.
Egg-laying hens are packed so tightly into cages that they can't even stretch one wing.
Pigs get their teeth cut in half and their tails cut off.
Pigs on factory farms spend their lives on concrete floors in crowded pens.
Like chickens and turkeys, pigs are drugged and bread to grow so fast and so big that many can barely walk.
Dairy cows have electric machines hooked up to their huge, swollen udders, causing cuts and injuries and the resulting pus, blood, and scabs all end up in that milk mustache.
In order for a cow to produce milk, she must first have a calf.
Female cows are artificially inseminated shortly artificially inseminated shortly after their first birthday.
After giving birth, they lactate for 10 months, then they are reinseminated, and the cycle starts again.
Got Pus? Milk does.
In the U.S. we have the highest permitted upper limit of milk pus cell concentration in the world.
Baby cows are separated from their mothers within 24 hours of birth.
Fish fell pain as do all animals.
Especially when they're hooked through the mouth or dragged out of the ocean in nets to die slow, agonizing deaths by crushing, suffocation, or disemboweling.
More than half the water consumed in the U.S. is used to raise animals for food.
A vegetarian/vegan diet requires 300 gallons of water per day, while a meat-eating diet requires more than 4,000 gallons.
Vegans have cruelty-free lifestyles and a "live and let live" approach to life.
It is also good for your body.
Vegetarians and vegans live on average 6 to 10 years longer then meat-eaters.
Up to 33% of teens are obese and about two-thirds of all Americans are overweight or obese.
Only 2% of vegans are obese.

Television:
TELEVISION Asà que has comenzado a sospechar, a ser cÃnico? ¿Ya no confÃas en el gobierno, en Coca-Cola, ni en la televisión? Estamos absolutamente felices de parodiarnos e insultarnos a nosotros mismos, incluso hasta de explicar detalladamente todas nuestras horribles intenciones y nuestros más perversos negocios... siempre y cuando ello llame tu atención. Tenemos programas televisivos, publicidades y tiras cómicas, cuidadosamente diseñadas para aquellos que no crean más en nosotros. Haremos cualquier cosa para mantenerte mirando, cualquier cosa para mantenerte comprando.
Jugamos con tu cinismo, lucrándonos con él, y fomentándolo. Eres demasiado "listo" como para llegar a confiar en nosotros, pero mientras te mantengamos cautivado por nuestra ironÃa y autorecriminación, no serás capaz de imaginar ninguna alternativa. Antes que tener el idealismo de destruir el statu quo, te unirás a las filas de los nihilistas del tipo Dilbert, sin poder creer ya en nada, pero aún cumpliendo tu rol en el sistema de la desesperanza.
