We derive the generalized chiral kinetic equations which are applicable to the fermions with arbitrary mass. We show how the dynamical magnetic-moment distribution function could lead to spin polarization and electric charge separation. We also show how the electric/magnetic moment distribution and pseudoscalar distribution could be induced by vorticity and electromagnetic field in global equilibrium.
