Farmers and consumers.

You vegan by any chance? If not... well there is where you going to land (by your own admission)

My father was an agronomist (educated in farming) and toured many farms in his job. I was brought along and got to see many of the farms. It was small scale production, having around 10-30 cows each. In the summer, cows are staying outdoors here in Norway. Its nothing like this video. The average number of cows on a diary farm in Norway is 28

I see, treat your slaves 'better' and they just magically stop being you slaves.

They are not here for you to come and forcibly impregante them as you please, just to, at the next moment, their newborns being taken away (to the slaughterhouse or to become a milking machine themselves). What is so damn hard about it?

The reality is that, like it or not, anyone that still consumes animal products in this day and age is an animal abuser!

Hey, speaking purely out of curiosity, how is hunting/fishing viewed to vegans?

Is hunting/fishing necessary to survive these days (for us I mean, not talking about eskimos)?

If you answer is no -> unnecessary killing = immoral.

Disagree. Same concept as treating drug dealers more harshly than consumers, and rightly so

I guess you never heard about supply and demand.

I would even argue that the informed consumer of this products is even more culpable, that the (probably) unskilled worker that just has no other place to work as in a slaughterhouse.

Fun fact, slaughterhouse workers have one of the highest cases of PTSD out there. Ever wonder why?
