    I'm not sure what you mean by "abolishing capitalism won't solve it". I think the only point outlined in the tweet that wouldn't be at least somewhat resolved by nature of communism is the wasteful usage of native land for raising animals (and the crops to feed them). (As a sidenote, I think that's the only point in the tweet that is uniquely an issue with carnism.) As workers own the means of production they wouldn't be motivated to build and run factories (In general - not just slaughterhouses) in a way that preys on marginalized people and communities and allows companies under capitalism to pay starvation wages.

      working at a slaughterhouse will always be traumatising and animal AG will always be massively destructive of the environment. Even if those things didn't disproportionately affect already marginalised people they would still have to affect someone. Carnism is unsustainable is what I mean.
