They're Trying to Kill Us

It goes into political and social topics that aren't typically addressed in other vegan documentaries. I consider myself pretty knowledgable about veganism, but I learned a lot. It even finally pushed my partner into being plant-based. Everyone should watch it !!!

We need more awareness and empathy for human rights surrounding our sick care systems. How economic insentives force marginalized people into staying sick. Very good science, every celebrity, and tons of facts and real world interviews from people in these food desert communities.

There are not enough documentaries that go into the human animal rights, the human animal abuse and the human animal suppression in relation to non-human animal agriculture. It respects its audience enough to go into food politics hard. But clear and simple enough for the gen pop. There are huge systemic problems, and they give you solutions everyone can help with.

Starting off, I was pleasantly surprised to see the roster of speakers that the film included to share their experiences and perspectives.

The film covers many different issues plaguing Americans and people even outside the US. It discusses the effect of food industries exploiting disadvantaged communities directly and with the assistance of the federal government.

I appreciated how they also covered issues that Indigenous populations and prisoners face.

This movie is really the starting point for someone to realize the injustices that occur and see how their own dollars could be going to benefit those that do not care for the consumer.

Overall, I loved this film and wish more films would call out atrocities that corrupt industries willfully commit on a daily basis.

It is on YouTube free to watch, so I hope the one reviewer will see this and fix their review to actually rate the film itself rather than coming here just to slam about something that is incorrect. I was upset too when I wasn't able to watch it initially but I knew if I just gave it some time, it would be accessible. The film is literally based off of the reasons why healthier options are less available to certain communities so you should assume that they wouldn't want to have the film unavailable for people who can't afford to donate towards the work that was done.

Anyways, I think this film is brilliant and I knew it would be before I even had access to it. This is a topic that not enough people are talking about and the humans in power are an absolute disgrace for making our world run in such a horrid way. Also, I love you Billie Eilish! 💞💞💞
