What Happened To The Vegan Movement? Rich & Simon Hill On The Rise & Fall Of Plant-Based Eating
What was said
"There's culpability with the influential members of this movement in carrying that message less responsibly than they could. When you look at them, these are people that I like, and I think they have the best of intentions, but I think the fact that they decided to communicate a health message that was really kind of a Trojan horse for an ethical message isn't in the best service of the public."
Simon Hill and Rich Roll expose how prominent plant-based advocates who were primarily motivated by animal rights concerns communicated health benefits as a Trojan horse strategy. Roll admits to platforming people who were fundamentally animal rights activists but presented themselves as health experts, creating a breach of public trust when their true motivations became apparent.
