      I’m not even vegan and that’s obviously not true in a general sense.

          Everyone should watch Clarkson’s Farm, he can be an arse but he shows how much the majority of farmers care about their animals.

              I mean tons of people have kids which are destined to die. About half of which die in horribly gruesome ways. People call that love.

                  Exactly what I said. To be clear, I wasn’t necessarily disagreeing with your point, just pointing out that most people have cognitive dissonance about what “love” is.

                  Edit: maybe you thought I was referring to some subset of people? I’m referring to everyone who children will die of murder, cancer, heart disease, car accidents, any form of unnatural death and most forms of natural deaths. Anyone who has children has made the decision that the suffering of their child is “worth it”

      But what about their calves? I’m not even vegan but I recognize that the industry has abhorrent practices.

      I can’t think of a much worse life than being bred to produce massive, uncomfortable amounts of milk, being forcibly impregnated, having your offspring taken away from you while you cry out for them, being hooked up to an industrial milking machine, and then starting the cycle all over again, over and over until your body finally gives out after 3-4 cycles and you’re dragged off to be slaughtered. But hey at least they get to listen to Mozart.
