          This entire site is pro-animal liberation now, by default. Check the rules.

            Ah, fair and good:rat-salute-2: . I just find a new account immediately acting combative and hostile with no provocation in ways that perfectly conform to every dumb chud stereotype about vegans to be so hilariously sus.

              I agree with their point entirely and have been on this site for ages. It is not surprising that an industry built on so much explicit violence has added a little more violence of basically the exact same kind. Viewing this story entirely through the lens of food safety is very much ignoring the elephant in the room of animal liberation, though it will be the most shocking part to people that don't care about that.

              PS you're already eating a ton of plastic if you eat a diet that's fairly typical of a westerner.

                The point that meat farming, especially under capitalism, is inherently unethical and destructive? Obviously. I'm talking about that "sorry you devalue life" reddit shit right out the gate. We don't have to give the benefit of the doubt to obvious wreckers here.

                  That´s the second time you´ve brushed off the animal torture aspect of this story. In your scramble to keep a vegan from challenging you, you might just be proving their criticism of you correct.

                  It wasn't right out the gate, it was a response to your dismissive response.

                    :shrug-outta-hecks: I'll cop to being a bit dismissive because their first comment immediately failed the smell test

      right, in diets of animals. antibiotics are a similar story. mass scale animal rearing is necessarily industrial and awful, so awful that it spills over to humans eating the flesh and working the factories. for pig farming this aussie documentary is good. pig factories look similar in the US, e.g. california's ban of type of farrowing crates seen here is currently being challenged in court

      even ignoring welfare, I wouldn't want to eat one of these fucked up animals w fly-caked sores and prolapses and stuff. nasty

      (e: oh I see you are vegan per comment thread. leaving this up for pig eaters)
