Momwemo imayamba nkhani yolembedwa ndi woimba, woyimba, wolemba nyimbo, DJ ndi womenyera ufulu wa nyama Moby m'magazini ya Rolling Stone. Mawu osavuta awa akutsatiridwa ndi nkhani yogwira mtima ya momwe Moby adakhalira vegan. Chisonkhezero chake chinali kukonda nyama, kumene kunayamba ndili wamng’ono kwambiri.
Atafotokoza chithunzi chomwe anajambula pamene Moby anali ndi milungu iwiri yokha, komanso pamene ali ndi ziweto, ndipo zimangoyang’anizana, Moby analemba kuti: “Ndili wotsimikiza kuti panthawiyo manyuroni a m’manja mwanga amalumikizana. motere, zomwe ndidazindikira: nyama ndi zachikondi komanso zoziziritsa kukhosi. Kenako akulemba za nyama zambiri zomwe iye ndi amayi ake adapulumutsa ndikuzisamalira kunyumba. Pakati pawo panali mwana wa mphaka Tucker, yemwe adamupeza pamalo otaya zinyalala, ndipo chifukwa chomwe chidziwitso chinatsikira pa Moby chomwe chinasintha moyo wake kosatha.
Pokumbukira mphaka wake wokondedwa, Moby akukumbukira kuti: “Nditakhala pamasitepe, ndinaganiza kuti, ‘Ndimkonda mphaka ameneyu. Ndidzachita chilichonse kuti ndimuteteze, ndimusangalatse komanso kuti asavulazidwe. Ali ndi miyendo inayi, maso awiri, ubongo wodabwitsa komanso malingaliro olemera kwambiri. Ngakhale zaka thililiyoni sindikanaganiza zovulaza mphaka uyu. Nanga ndichifukwa chiyani ndimadya nyama zina zomwe zili ndi miyendo inayi (kapena iwiri), maso awiri, ubongo wodabwitsa komanso malingaliro olemera kwambiri? Ndipo nditakhala pamasitepe akumidzi yaku Connecticut ndi Tucker mphaka, ndidakhala wosadya zamasamba. ”
Patatha zaka ziwiri, Moby anamvetsetsa kugwirizana pakati pa kuvutika kwa nyama ndi makampani a mkaka ndi mazira, ndipo kuzindikira kwachiwiri kumeneku kunamupangitsa kuti ayambe kudya zakudya zamagulu. Zaka 27 zapitazo, chisamaliro cha nyama chinali chifukwa chachikulu, koma kuyambira pamenepo, Moby wapeza zifukwa zambiri zokhalira osadya nyama.
"Pamene nthawi inkapita, chikhalidwe changa chodyera chinalimbikitsidwa ndi chidziwitso chokhudza thanzi, kusintha kwa nyengo ndi chilengedwe," akulemba motero Moby. “Ndinaphunzira kuti kudya nyama, mkaka ndi mazira kumakhudza kwambiri matenda a shuga, matenda a mtima ndi khansa. Ndinaphunzira kuti ulimi wa ziweto zamalonda umayambitsa 18% ya kusintha kwa nyengo (kuposa magalimoto onse, mabasi, magalimoto, zombo ndi ndege pamodzi). Ndinaphunzira kuti kupanga 1 mapaundi a soya kumafuna magaloni 200 a madzi, pamene kupanga 1 mapaundi a ng'ombe kumafuna magaloni 1800. Ndinaphunzira kuti chifukwa chachikulu chimene chimawonongera nkhalango m’nkhalango zamvula ndicho kudula nkhalango kaamba ka msipu. Ndinaphunziranso kuti zoonoses zambiri (SARS, matenda a ng'ombe, chimfine cha mbalame, ndi zina zotero) ndi zotsatira za kuweta ziweto. Chabwino, ndipo, monga mtsutso womalizira: Ndinaphunzira kuti zakudya zozikidwa pa nyama ndi mafuta ochuluka zingakhale zochititsa kusowa mphamvu (monga ngati sindinafunikire zifukwa zambiri zokhalira wosadya nyama).”
Moby akuvomereza kuti poyamba anali waukali kwambiri pamalingaliro ake. Pomaliza, adazindikira kuti maulaliki ake amavulaza kwambiri kuposa zabwino, ndipo ndi achinyengo.
Moby analemba kuti: “Ndinazindikira pomaliza pake kuti kukalipira anthu [chifukwa cha nyama] si njira yabwino yowachititsa kuti amvetsere zimene ukunena. “Ndikalalatira anthu, ankandiikira kumbuyo ndipo ankadana ndi zonse zimene ndinkafuna kuwauza. Koma ndinaphunzira kuti ngati ndilankhula ndi anthu mwaulemu ndi kuwauza mfundo ndi mfundo zake, ndimatha kuwachititsa kuti azindimvera komanso kuganizira chifukwa chake ndinasiya kudya.”
Moby analemba kuti ngakhale iye ndi wamasamba ndipo amasangalala nazo, safuna kukakamiza aliyense kuti apite ku vegan. Iye akufotokoza motere: “Zingakhale zodabwitsa ngati ndinakana kuumiriza chifuno changa pa zinyama, koma nkukhala wokondwa kukakamiza anthu kuchita chifuniro changa.” Polankhula izi, Moby adalimbikitsa owerenga ake kuti aphunzire zambiri za kadyedwe ka nyama komanso zomwe zimayambitsa chakudya chawo, komanso kupewa zinthu zomwe zimatuluka m'mafamu a fakitale.
Moby akumaliza nkhaniyi mwamphamvu kwambiri: "Ndikuganiza kuti pamapeto pake, popanda kukhudza thanzi, kusintha kwanyengo, zoonoses, kukana kwa maantibayotiki, kupanda mphamvu ndi kuwonongeka kwa chilengedwe, ndikufunsani funso limodzi losavuta: mungayang'ane mwana wa ng'ombe m'maso ndi kunena kuti: “ Kulakalaka kwanga n’kofunika kwambiri kuposa kuvutika kwanu?
