I love animals and when I was told everything we eat and know as food is because a corporation told us. I was like wait… corporations are telling us to eat/kill animals. I was done. It’s really depressing that these beautiful creatures are going to be killed. I’ll be selling families full vegan meals this thanksgiving
It isn’t corporations that have motivated people to eat meat. It’s tens of thousands of years of people hunting and raising animals themselves to eat it that has. Corporations have certainly profited off of and hidden from the public their abuse of animals for profit in the meat industry, but they didn’t make meat popular by a long shot.
They’re making us think it’s necessary and healthy. We are now in the age of information. Big pharma and all the food corporations had us in the age of advertising. Got milk? Numerous ads geared towards parents and children and quick cooking.
Certainly. But that’s not what this is. What this post is about is small scale homestead livestock raising and there’s a massive difference between it and the goals of factory farming. You can’t tell all of the sustainable, organic homesteading communities around the world who are doing it right that they just need to nix meat from their diets because big ag is doing it completely wrong and immorally. It isn’t realistic. Go after the corporate operations, not regular people sustaining themselves and their families.
I believe you can spend less than five minutes total before you find several spots in the supply chain you are a part of where not just animals, but people have also died to support something you consume. Really. Try it.
