    Love to salute rape, it's not at all fucked.

    Goat farms are not sanctuaries. The goats are there to be used for profit. They only produce milk when they are pregnant or after giving birth, just like human animals. They are continually inseminated so they keep producing milk. Their children are stolen from them and either raised for their milk and flesh or killed so that they can't have their mother's milk, otherwise the farmer will lose profit. When the goat is no longer produces as much milk, she is killed. Letting her live her natural lifespan is costly, and her body will not be worth much if it is old or diseased. Farmers are meat capitalists, and they will always put profit before ethics.
