about
The sad truth is that our culture was built, and still heavily relies, upon the systematic murder of literally millions of animals on a daily basis. Humanity loves to tout our capacity for intelligence, especially when it comes to accomplishing our goals utilizing innovation and imagination, and collectively molding society and the world around us to our whims, but the question remains: exactly how intelligent can we be if we can’t accomplish our goals without stepping on the throats of our animal neighbors and family to do so?
How truly barbaric, unsophisticated, and ultimately prideful for us to hold ourselves up above the rest of the animals on this planet when we have depended on their sacrifice for us to have obtained that position? The reality is that now, with technology and innovation being what it is, we have the ability to put an end to this dependence now and forever. The leaps and bounds made in terms of food manufacturing, materials manufacturing, etc. now allow us, as a species, to live our lives completely without the exploitation of animals. With this being the case, it is now more than ever time for us to detach ourselves from our previously inhumane habits and move forward into a vegan future, for the animals, for ourselves, and for the planet.
lyrics
DETACH!
You refuse to ask, you refuse to know,
It’s easier to accept when your head is in a hole.
A blind eye and apathy make a poor epitaph
For a living, breathing, thinking creature who died on your behalf.
Your culture was built, was built and still relies,
On the suffering of animals who gave up their lives
on the altar of your uncaring greed,
Unwillingly sacrificed, begging to be freed.
Detach from humanity!
No more blind eye or apathy!
Detach from humanity!
join the LIVING. BREATHING. THINKING. FEELING.
Become more than your bloodlust, end this senseless dominance…
Confront your thirst for mass murder or face the fucking consequence.
Detach from humanity,
inhumane nature.
A culture built upon
upon the backs of other creatures.
