It’s interesting to note that, while many discourage comparing the meat industry to the Shoah, many survivors and writers have themselves compared the Shoah to the meat industry. Jack Sittsamer, for example, said that many Jews marched to the Mielec Airport ‘were herded into box cars, like cattle.’ Jacques Stroumsa summarized the Reich’s concentration camps as ‘intended to completely destroy the human personality and to reduce it to a number tattooed on the skin, like animals in a slaughterhouse.’
While I find it extremely unlikely that armed forces will end the meat industry, the increasing popularity of meat alternatives will surely reduce its size to the fringes and render it a margin of its former self (as it should be).
