While the video is kind of bullshit, I (as a vegan for 3 years now and no plans of stopping) also don’t think the message “just go vegan bro” is useful. A lot of people are now aware of the cruelty involved in animal agriculture, but just don’t care enough to give up nutritious tasty food that’s easy to cook. As usual, relying on individual action can’t be the solution for a systemic problem. So I think the most important part is to mobilize people to organize, lobby and protest against the animal industry, and to push for pro-vegan regulations, without necessarily going full vegan themselves for now. Quite surprisingly for a lot of people that’s easier to do than give up “mah cheese”, as horrific as its production may be. Of course it’s also great to encourage them to try easy & tasty vegan alternatives for some days of the week at least.

I too have noticed this about them over the years, I avoid their videos about stuff like this now because their “solutions” are, like you say, so very neo-liberal.
Jesus Christ that’s blatant
