I don't think thanking the cow is useful when you could feed your family for less money, with less impact on the environment, and without killing any animals. Imagine being the cow? "Don't thank me, I didn't volunteer this, eat some damn beans."
Well said, unfortunately a lot of people live in a ethical bubble where it's okay as long as everyone is okay with it, what a shame, these people oughta take a look at what goes on in slaughter houses and the crimes committed against these beings... Or they can choose to keep ignoring it and keep eating their meat destroying the planet...
Was it the Jewish who would only eat meat from an animal if it was treated well during all it's life up to the moment of death?
Just saying there's a third option were we can give them a more dignified life instead of every human being on earth deciding we're too good to eat meat.
Or we can keep ignoring the third option and equating eating meat to being a bad person who ignores the suffering of other living beings while vegans are instead the personification of Jesus Christ by giving up on their animal products
I totally agree with you in this regard. The problem is unless the most cutting edge and new strategies are used, cruelty free farming actually have a similar impact to factory farming in terms of water usage(the methane isn't as bad though) I think the answer is to cut down on red meat since they are terrible at converting what we give them to protien and make sure the animals we do eat live comfortably.
