          Try and find out the standard practices of the factory farm where the meat from your local area comes from. They don’t make it easy to find out, and if you do find out, it is currently much worse than what was happening 15 years ago. There is a good reason for this, too. In most regards, the rule is that they can’t be too much worse than the average behavior. This is causing a horrific drift to worse and worse practices.

          There is almost no push back on this because the average person is so reluctant to admit that they may be supporting something so vile that they stand behind whatever it is these farms do without having any actual idea of what’s going on. Nobody is checking in on these places and coming out saying alls good other than the people making a ton of money off them.

          If you don’t know for sure that you get animal products from good places, then it is almost guaranteed that you don’t. If you don’t care to even find out, then you are the normal consumer, and you have accepted that your pleasure matters more than the treatment of the animals in them. You are not the minority. You are the merciless masses with no morality in this regard.

            I don’t believe this, but it’s clear you do. yet you don’t seem to want to accept it. I offer a solution: mind your own business.

              You are right, but I can make a very educated guess based on the deprivety that you insist on trying to defend. If you have been pretending this whole time and you actually have concern for the planet and for the well-being of others, then great. It’s a strange thing to troll about, but that would be much better than if you actually hold the opinions you are pretending to.

                I haven’t defended any depravity. I’m demanding evidence for the efficacy of you plan to address environmental concerns.

                  I did, you said it was bad, and then praised yourself. This is exactly what happens when you point out to a crackhead that they are down to 4 teeth, they just say “whatever bro, not related, you so dumb” and then go on thinking they’re so clever for always outsmarting everyone with their lightning fast logic skills.
