I am a sentientist because I believe our moral frameworks and political systems ought to respect the interests of each and every individual who can suffer and take joy from their lives.

So exciting! We had our first troll in r/Sentientism 🥳

A member replies: " i think you could have worded this in a way which would have been a bit nicer.. have a good sentient experience, & please be kind to all sentient beings, yourself included" 💚

We're hiring for two positions: researchers to study moral circle expansion, and a generalist to work on a variety of tasks to contribute to our mission (e.g., communications, management). Please RT and send to people who may be interested! https://www.sentienceinstitute.org/get-involved

Yet another example of how otherwise compassionate ethical and environmental thinking can be warped by supernaturalism into endorsing animal farming and seeing wild animal suffering under predation as a good thing... 😢

"if everyone ate a vegan diet... around 8 million deaths could be avoided around the world by 2050"
More like a few TRILLION surely? Oh wait, you aren't counting nonhuman lives.

What if the whole world went vegan? https://www.bbc.co.uk/ideas/videos/what-if-the-whole-world-went-vegan/p082l2r8?playlist=sustainable-thinking via @bbcideas

If you're an #introvert, #gay/#LGBTQ+, #atheist, #vegan and/or #sentientist (or tweet about related topics), then F4F 🤓 I will also be discussing the above topics & typically only follow accounts in these niches. Please message me if I didn't follow you back.

Who would you most like to publicly become a #Sentientist?

Committed to “evidence, reason and compassion for all sentient beings.”
