To no honest I stopped watching his videos when he was giving away the eggs of the rescued chicken to his neighbours. After a short while, I was like, okay this is fair enough, no animals are harmed, they're not treated as commodities and it's fine.

But this is bad.

I think he did say that 5-6 years ago, he stopped calling himself a vegan, but still starting to "eat" animals is stupid.

Same. I unsubscribed back then.

Looking up to people in general is setting yourself up for disappointment

"Rescue chickens" is a gateway drug to carnism. I'm not saying it's impossible to have a sanctuary, but humans in general have an adversion to paying for and putting effort into a living creature and not getting any "use" from them.

Animal agriculture needs to be abolished completely.
