à-bas-le-ciel: vegan politics and the politics of veganism

(AR+IO) Eisel Mazard

This is the podcast that resulted after eight years of discussions on Youtube, where Eisel Mazard was the voice of à-bas-le-ciel, criticizing veganism from within, eventually reaching millions of views with his jarring portrayal of the vegan movement as a deeply corrupt and dishonest failure. AR+IO abbreviates the motto "Active Research and Informed Opinion", providing consistent numbering for all of the episodes (AR+IO-001, etc.) hosted by Eisel Mazard across many different podcasts, and united by

The vegan movement didn't tear itself apart out of pure stupidity: envy and the strange shallowness required to choose (and trust) political leaders primarily on the basis of their sex appeal… amounting to impure stupidity, I suppose. This is the least controversial video I've ever uploaded: "I am more attractive than you, it's genetic, don't blame me, I was born this way." Jealous?

This is an interesting contrast to the conclusions presented in the book (Veganism: Future of an Illusion) written many years later, where the futility of trying to convert your relatives (parents, grandparents, brothers, sisters —sometimes even husbands and wives) is a major subject of contention.

You don't choose to be loved or hated: you choose to be known or unknown. And if it is inevitable, in choosing to make yourself known, that you also make yourself hated, then you must decide if you will be hated for reasons shallow or profound —if you will dispute things that are trivial or of great significance —with honesty or deception —with or without wearing a mask. The conflict between myself and "Swayze" (Unnatural Vegan) does in large part explain how I became such a notorious figure in the

Solar panels and wind farms aren't going to make the necessary difference: if the vegan movement fails, this is the end of the world. Some call it "global warming", some call it "climate change". Some prefer to speak more specifically about carbon PPM (parts per million) in the atmosphere, rising ocean levels, and so on. It's a simple problem with a simple solution, from a vegan perspective, and yet tremendously complex from so many other perspectives that fail to recognize the centrality of meat

Formerly known as Cosmic Skeptic, Alex O'Connor was a major, influential leader in the vegan movement, and presented himself as a philosopher, arguing that it was morally obligatory for other atheist philosophers like Matt Dillahunty to be vegan —until, one day, he revealed that he wasn't vegan anymore, and, perhaps, if we just listen to what he said so plainly, he never was vegan at all. Following in the footsteps of Peter Singer, Alex O'Connor preached a doctrine of "the net positive" while having

One of the most despised (but most influential) movements in veganism's 21st century, DXE was known for public protest "stunts" that earned them momentary notice in newspapers but permanently discredited the movement as a whole. Initially claiming to be "fully horizontal" and "leaderless", the organization later revealed just how narrowly hierarchical it was as the donations poured in, eventually surpassing a budget of one million dollars per year, and sex scandals (amidst rumors of cult-like

Search for it: "Brand New Ancient Buddhism" isn't just the name of an episode of this podcast… it is, in fact, the name of an entirely separate podcast (where you'll find many more episodes on this subject and along these lines).

This is an entirely serious (and yet thoroughly hilarious and utterly absurd) introduction to the book that resulted from ten years on youtube as a dissident intellectual, cross-examining (and sometimes ridiculing) the vegan movement —a "career" that suddenly ended with the whole channel being banned from youtube, with over eight million views and 13,000 subscribers evaporating overnight. The book, however, remains available on Amazon. In both English and Spanish translation, just like this video
