Honestly the thing that motivated me to do this episode was learning that there's less than $200M/year of smart philanthropy on factory farming - GLOBALLY.

Just to explain how fucking crazy that is:

1. It's insane how cheap the interventions that will spare BILLIONS of animals from gruesome, painful fates have been.
Less than $200M has been spent getting corporate commitments that have already spared more than 400M hens from battery cages, and securing pledges that will spare billions more over the years to come. That’s < $1 per 10 years of animal well-being improved.
Another example: In-ovo sexing (which determines the sex of eggs pre-birth) has already saved 200M male chicks from maceration at birth (with the potential to spare 7 billion every year). And it only cost ~$10 million to get off the ground.

2. 80 billion land animals are factory farmed every year. That means the ratio is $1 donated : 40,000 animals.

3. Compared to the amount of private philanthropy alone on global health ($50b+/year) or climate change ($15b+/year), the <$200M/year of smart money spent on factory farming is nothing.
—
The way we treat factory farmed animals is one of the worst atrocities in history. And unfortunately, the problem is on track to get worse every year.

The case for optimism: Given how neglected this issue is, the scope of impact even one individual can have is absolutely massive.

To be blunt, there are individual readers of this tweet who could DOUBLE the amount of smart money our entire civilization dedicates to this issue. Even with a few million dollars, you could single-handedly improve the lives of millions of factory-farmed animals.

Nozomi IIjima's "Scoffing Pig" is maybe most tragic photobook I've seen. She follows pigs on a farm, showing how the pigs understand the horror of which they are a part.

@goodalexander u a eth bull ?

[twiziri @twiziri]

@0x_Kun maybe for a lot of retail - but @goodalexander argues that it has some nice properties as a monetary store of value as well

for example it's liquid, fast and far less tracked than Bitcoin, has protection from the US gov, is pseudonymous, etc...

do you disagree with this?

[twiziri @twiziri]

@0x_Kun is this why XRP is outperforming SOL &amp; ETH

He is correct... and one of the most egregious examples of crony capitalism is the corrupt alliance between the Chinese-owned Smithfield Foods and senators like @SenJoniErnst , who are trying to push through a backhanded deal to FORCE gestation-crated pork back onto states which have already voted to ban it.

Pay attention to the "Farm Bill" they're trying to sneak in through Brooke Rollins - it's a complete f-you to Republican values of states' rights of self determination, it hurts small farmers, and it is terrible for American health.
