The Real Monsters Wear Aprons: What Scooby-Doo Taught Us About Animal Rights
Scooby-Doo always unmasked the villain to reveal the truth: the monster was never supernatural, it was human. This mirrors the reality of animal exploitation. The true horror behind factory farms and slaughterhouses isn’t nature, it’s us. We create systems of abuse, disguise them as tradition or necessity, and hide behind sanitized labels like “humane meat.” But just like the masked ghosts in Scooby-Doo, the illusion shatters when we look closer. Choosing veganism is about unmasking these lies and rejecting a system built on violence. We don’t need to harm others to live well. The real monsters aren’t animals; they’re the humans who pretend compassion is extreme while cruelty is normal. Time to rip the mask off.
Fully agree with the points made in this thought piece. The real MONSTERS are indeed human. My God, how deeply sad.
