    I’m constantly surprised at the general public’s ignorance of the conditions of farming and simultaneous confidence that vegans are extremist loons.

        Bush banned testing for mad cow disease in the US because he didn’t want the panic. The American public was widely gaslit about it. You’re the person that didn’t take the crazy pills

    Pigs will eat anything, including each other and humans, if given the chance. Still shouldn’t be helping them in this endeavour

      The title of this article is actually underselling it. They specifically give them disease-infected piglets and their feces

      Employees can be seen removing the intestines of dead, disease-infected piglets and mixing them with piglet feces in a blender — a mixture to be fed to the adult breeding pigs — causing one worker to gag.

      The practice, called “feedback,” is common in the pork business (or “controlled oral exposure” in industry jargon). The slurry of pig poop and parts is often fed to new female breeding pigs

      Farmers specifically have to be careful when sows give birth because they will sometimes just eat the piglets. But yeah, let’s make this about people forcing pigs to eat other pigs lmao

      Not natural at all,bit as with most things you can vote with your dollar and find humane farms and buy their products

      Either thw big box stores will change or tgw meat industry will change. Awareness is the first step. Action is the next step

        I see, this time I’ll go to a “humane” mass murder shack, instead of my usual mass murder factory for my food.

        Neither will change as long as capitalism is in place, they have no reason to.

      You’re strong enough, dude. It’s not as hard as people make it out to be. Just do some research and give it a go.

      Rainbow Plant Life is an amazing channel for vegan recipes. Give her a watch or two - won’t regret it. :)
