fuck the meet industry

It all started going downhill with Zoom.

The better treatment balloons costs by requiring more land and more care, which significantly inflates the cost of the final products. This could be an effective measure for reducing meat consumption by people buying less to save money, many people would be against those increases.

Its just like mass produced clothing. Since they dont see the abuse and destruction, they are satisfied with the lower prices at the store.

if we are to raise livestock for consumption they should be treated as the sentient

this is a contradiction in itself.

It is normal and healthy for people to empathize with the animals they eat, to be concerned about whether or not they are living happy lives and to hope they are slaughtered humanely. However, if it is unethical to harm these animals, then it is more unethical to kill them.

Killing animals for food is far worse than making them suffer. Of course, it is admirable that people care so deeply about these animals that they take deliberate steps to reduce their suffering (e.g. by purchasing "free-range" eggs or "suffering free" meat). However, because they choose not to acknowledge the right of those same animals to live out their natural lives, and because slaughtering them is a much greater violation than mistreatment, people who eat 'humane' meat are laboring under an irreconcilable contradiction.

I think there is no harm done in, a hypothetical world where people had the space to do such a thing, raising our own livestock, limited to individual homesteads or the immediate settlement (a local town market, for example).

That's fundamentally what I'm doing. My girlfriend also loves chickens and ducks so we bought a couple, build a big, nice coop for them (with fucking floor heating because why not lmao), also dug a pond for the ducks and now we have plenty of eggs and my girlfriend can just sit in the chicken enclose when depression kicks and the chickens and ducks take care of that. Best decision we made so far.

Btw, veganism is really about just minimizing the harm you cause to the world. Don’t let any puritans tell you otherwise. What you have described is a form of veganism! Admittedly, it’s a little bit minimalistic, but it’s still something!

Even just a general reduction of meat consumption in the populace could eradicate this kind of farming.

Yeah vegan bacon is great :)

I feel like I’ve been standing my entire life and I just sat down

How do you kill the local farmers? And, how have you not run out of farms yet? Are you feeding the farmers to your coworkers? So many questions

How are you able to butcher and cook a pig all within your 30 minute lunch break?

The Billie Green Bacon is so tasty! Never saw a Problem with Vegan Bacon. Since I'm Vegan I instantly found that, and eat that since then. Was it shit for a long time?

Binary thinkers aren't intelligent or productive members of society, they just don't like being reminded about the lack of intelligence that they have. I'm sure someone will read your comment here and then stop eating meat lol
