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.

  • Theo Slade: it's always unresonable to expect reasonable criticism.
    May 17 2026

    The moral of the story here is that youtube is really just a blank sheet of paper: you can learn a lot from working with it, or you can squander the opportunity, learning nothing at all.

    Originally uploaded as a livestream (on à-bas-le-ciel) under the title, "Theo Slade: it's always unreasonable to expect reasonable criticism."

    Socrates died for your sins, and unlike Jesus or Santa Claus or whatever, he had the good taste and refinement to stay dead, so that we could all keep on sinning. #vegan #vegans #veganism #veganmovement #veganfuture
