PETA’s Vegan Guide to Minecraft!

Are you ever just mining away for diamonds and then this happens oh no all of my diamonds are falling out of my wallet because it’s so old and worn down and bad and ugly and doesn’t really hold diamonds very well well what if i told you there’s an easy and affordable

Solution well that’s where the sponsor of this video comes in extern they have these sleek minimalistic wallets that can hold up to 12 cards there’s even a strap to hold some cash oh wow look it’s my monthly paycheck from youtube they also sent me this card holder which is

Very durable and works just as well on top of everything i got this little tracker that’s so thin it can fit inside any wallet buy the wallets use the link in the description to get 20 off site-wide if your order is over 150 dollars you get 30 off plus a free gift

Bag for the father’s day sale from now to june 20th thank you again to extra for sponsoring this video now i have a high quality place to hold all my time people for the ethical treatment of animals otherwise known as peta is an interesting organization to say the

Least if you’ve been a fan of my channel for any amount of time now you’re probably familiar with the articles peta has written about video games in these articles they cherry pick what to hate about these games for example in assassin’s creed wailing is bad but they

Make no mention of the hunting or the oh yeah assassinating so as far as peta is concerned whaling is the one unethical thing about this game but my favorite article that i’ve read by peta is peta’s vegan guide to animal crossing it talks about all the things you cannot do like

Catching fish bugs craft certain items or aware certain things in other words peta wants you to play animal crossing minus the most efficient ways to make money and without like most of the game’s main features they do list stuff you can do instead and it’s a list of

The most boring parts of the game so it got me thinking what would a vegan guide made by peta specifically look like for other games today we are going to try and figure out how a vegan guide to minecraft made by peta would look i do

Not care how many features of this game we are going to take away we are not stopping until we make pita proud let’s start with what you can and can’t kill peta is all for animal rights so obviously we cannot kill any animals whatsoever but in their articles they do

Not seem to be bothered by killing humans so i’m gonna say villagers piglen and traders are fair game and you can kill them i would also classify illagers as fair game excluding the ravangers and vexes however minecraft is a game with a lot of creatures and monsters that are

Neither human nor animal we can look to a past peta article for a bit of help here they wrote an article about how zerglings from starcraft have feelings too i don’t know starcraft very well at all but i do know zerglings are these weird monster things and are also a hive

Mind which means they do not think for themselves and have a collective conscious which not only makes this article really dumb but i think because of this we can classify any monsters like creepers or even the warden in the animal category meaning we cannot kill them iron golems are a really hard mob

To classify i originally wanted to put them in the animal category but the more i think about it they’re almost more of a robot than anything else i can personally see this being a gray area but i’d say you’re allowed to kill them as well but what category do the undead

Fall into it’s hard to say again this part feels very subjective to me but i personally say they would fall into more of the animal category than human all they do is walk around and try to survive they don’t have villages set up where they try to farm or do anything

Else you would expect a human to do they act way more like animals than anything else so anything undead may as well be an animal in this case now that we know what we can and can’t kill what are we going to do about food well this should

Be very straightforward you can only eat what is vegan i don’t care if the chickens are casually laying eggs and then leaving that egg to rots you are not allowed to eat it i don’t care if a creeper blows up and kills a pig right

Next to you you better not pick up that pork chop and don’t forget honey is not vegan for early game i would say you may just want to stick to apples but they have a 0.5 chance of dropping while breaking oak leaves spawning in a mushroom biome may be your best bet so

You can make some mushroom stew obviously you’re going to want to set up a nice farm to grow some crops but do not even think about keeping animals there peta’s even against pets sometimes i say sometimes because they’ve spoken out about owning pets in the past but

Then you can easily find examples of their employees with their pets so if you want a cat or a wolf feel free except you’re not allowed to feed your cat a fish so no cats or ocelots the bone you use to tame a wolf is most

Likely coming from a skeleton but if you happen to find a bone in a chest i’ll allow it you never know if a bone comes from a pesky villager instead of a skeleton after all foxes are not allowed as you have to actively take the kit away from its parents axolotls don’t

Seem to mind being yanked from their home but it feels wrong so i say leave them be horses llamas mules and donkeys are off limits you essentially have to harass them for a bit before they like you skeleton horses are also off limits as you have to kill a skeleton to get it

To like you parrots are chill though you’re not only forbidden from owning a sheep but you can also not shear it for wool peta is very outspoken against shearing sheep i do not care if that sheep is going to overheat with the years of overgrown wool do not cheer it

So that begs the question can you sleep well as we just discussed you can’t use wool you’re not allowed to use beds you may find in villages because you don’t know how those villagers made those beds but don’t worry there is a way to get

Wool in a humane way you need to get 4 strings to do so no you obviously cannot kill spiders to get the strings and breaking their webs is destroying their homes so you cannot do that either but feel free to steal them from chests as that’s more ethical you’ll most likely

Be able to find enough before the phantoms show up or at least you better hope so because you cannot kill the phantoms once they do show up now what about weapons and armor leather armor is off limit since it’s made from cows and you can’t use the turtle shellments for

Obvious reasons everything else should be fair game in general if you have any questions about whether or not you can use something just make sure what you’re using doesn’t come from an animal at all for example try to refrain from using maps as you never know if it was written

With squid ink so what about building your home base are there any specific rules here so at first i was considering just removing mining from the game altogether this isn’t me going out of my way to make this game as awful of an experience as possible it just makes

Sense with this guide’s premise chopping down trees and digging through dirt and mines are destroying the homes of all the creatures like you would never want to screw over a silverfish by mining the wrong block would you so according to peta’s ethics the proper course of action would probably be to just die

Running into a cactus but since i’m a nice guy i’ll let you mind and build your home base however do be mindful of the wildlife and every time you cut down a tree plant a new one to replace it if you want to go the extra mile you can

Even try to save zombies and skeletons from burning to death once the sun comes up no of course you cannot ever fight the ender dragon as the dragon is a living creature nor can you even use the eye of enter to activate the end portal but don’t let that get you down there’s

No reason why you can’t still have fun in a vegan minecraft playthrough you’re still allowed to explore anywhere you want you’ll just have to play more passively perhaps try to sneak around more create strongholds to retreat to throughout the map or just hide in a makeshift stone wall all night there’s

No shame in being a coward here this video started off as kind of a meme but the more i think about it a vegan playthrough would add an extra layer of challenge and force you to go about everything in a unique way and that could call for some exciting and unique

Gameplay so maybe consider giving this challenge a try and see how it goes of course if you want you can always play in creative mode as long as you continue to follow the rules minecraft is a huge game and i’m certainly not the most experienced in it so if there’s anything

I missed feel free to let me know down in the comments below as always i fully support animal rights being vegetarian and being vegan now make sure to be respectful to everybody in the comments thank you for watching and i hope you all have a fantastic tuesday
