Look where it got us humans by disrespecting animal rights on a massive scale.
We’re literally destroying the world and a lot of people still don’t care or understand. It’s a damn shame.

You mean those diseases which have never been found to occur in pigs? Yeah. Delicious. I’m not defending this practice, but your reason to be against it is based on a falsehood.

Bro this isn’t about veganism, I love the taste of bacon too. What I read in that article is absolutely fucked. A small quote:
Male piglets at the farm have their tails cut off and testicles ripped out by hand without anesthesia or pain relief, both standard practices in the industry. The investigator filmed employees tossing the testicles at each other and at a wall that was covered in them.
yeah, meat lover here, it’s real fucked and completely legal.
These practices are all legal and widespread because lawmakers have made them so. The federal Animal Welfare Act excludes livestock from protection, while many state animal cruelty laws exempt “customary farming practices,” allowing the industry to define what’s customary. Big Ag is one of the more powerful lobbies in Washington.
In some states, it’s even illegal to conduct investigations like the one featured in this story. From the early 1990s to the early 2020s, a number of states passed “ag-gag” laws, which generally prohibit people from taking videos or photographs on farms without permission. Fortunately, most have been struck down as unconstitutional.
So… you’re less likely to hear from “preachy vegans” (aka investigations into these abhorrent practices) in the future but no less likely to be eating meat that was fed poop. cooooool.
mmm bacon
But what about prions?
