    Death is still painful and premature death years before it would have occurred is still very bad for animals

        Nobody said they’re more evil? The point is they’re still bad and the solution isn’t “pay a little for family farmed” (both for animal welfare and environmental reason)

          Family farms are in the best position to pivot and react to new market demands, it’s where change will have to start.

            It’s a completely unsustainable model. Family farms are a perverse pastoral fetishization of animal cruelty that is incompatable with the fact of continuous population growth.

              A farm can produce plants as well as animals - a fully plant based farm can also not be family owned and operated? I agree the world is concentrating into the hands of very few corporations, but I don’t welcome it.

                Farmers who grow feed can also switch to growing food.

                Slaughterhouses… maybe they can switch to growing fungi.
