"But we have an agreement in society that our goal is to harvest those animals without unnecessary cruelty."

This is not true. The agreement American society seems to have is "do whatever you need to do to keep the bacon on the shelves and make it cheap".

What actually happens behind the walls of a slaughterhouse is an atrocity, the cruelty is unimaginable. I've watched it. Do a search for "factory farming undercover videos" and learn the truth behind mass factory farming. It is right there on the internet now and has been for nearly 20 years now. Multiple source, multiple films. So much. It is very traumatic to watch.



Ok, fair point. But this has nothing to do with the article.
