    I see where you’re coming from. For me ‘completely normal person’ implied that the comic refers to normal consumers and not a tiny minority. If it’s targeted at slaughterhouse employees that enjoy killing animals then we’re talking about a) a really small part of society and b) noone that would be considered a considered a normal person by the mainstream.

    I’m completely on board with you that most and especially the bigger, industrialized slaughterhouses are horrible places. But I think also the majority of non-vegans agrees on that. And I also don’t think that every employee working there is inherently an evil person. At least in Germany these jobs are paid extremely poor and as very few locals are willing to do that work, the industry exploits workers from Eastern Europe who desparately need the money to support their families. I doubt that these people enjoy what they do. And out of the few psychopathts who do, there’s for sure a decent share that turned sick because of their violent job.
