"Luiz Antonio: Why He Doesn't Want To Eat Octopus"

[Spang]

I asked permission to this mom to translate this into English so this beautiful and inspiring video can be spread.

 

[Amy SF]

I can't watch videos. Is there text somewhere on the internet, in English?

In the beginning, Luiz asks if the octopus is real. Eventually it gets to this part:

Luiz: Fish are animals... Octopus are animals... Chickens are animals... Cows are animals... Pig are animals...​

​

Mom: Yeah.​

​

Luiz: So, when we eat animals they die.​

​

Mom: Ah, yeah.​

​

Luiz: Why?​

​

Mom: So we can eat them, love.​

​

Luiz: Why do they die? I don't like that they die... I like that they stay standing up.​

​

Mom: Okay. Alright. So we're not gonna eat it anymore, okay?​

​

Luiz: Okay! These animals, you gotta take care of them and not eat them.​

​

Mom: You're right, son. So eat the potatoes and rice.​

​

Luiz: Alright... Why are you crying?​

​

Mom: I'm not crying... I'm just touched by you.​

​

Luiz: I'm doing something beautiful.​

​

Mom: Eat... No need to eat the octopus, alright?​

​

Luiz: Okay!​

Cute! Hope it lasts. When my nephew was young he wouldn't eat turkey at Thanksgiving because "turkeys are cute". It didn't last as he grew older though.

Yes that is cute hope it lasts , this was cute tho , I wouldn't want to eat octopus either a non vegan or vegan anyhow.

 

[Amy SF]

Octopi are one of the coolest animals on the planet, imo. They are very intelligent cephalopods that can problem solve, can change color to blend in amazingly with their surroundings, can fit into a small crevice as wide as its little eye, move by jet propulsion, and have three hearts.

I did not know that.

I will never ever offer to get octopus from the sushi place for my mother ever again.

I still won't eat them that is a non traditional thing to eat its making me get sick thinking people eat these things.

Octopodes are cool but cuttlefish are my favorites.

I don't think ledboots was trying to convince you to eat them.

Yup, they're scary smart. The next heirs of the planet to be sure, if they survive whatever cataclysm we fall to.

Here's a good demonstration of their skills. Poor crabs, but still, wow!

Also, if Amy SF couldn't watch videos, I wouldn't have partially transcribed it.
