    It is unnecesary and cruel to forcefully breed and take lives for the sake of taste

    most livestock is bred and killed for profit.

          They’re paid because there is demand for their bloodshed and torture. Supply and demand. If consumers stopped demanding it the supply would diminish

                  So hilarious to hear this from a fellow commie lmao. You think the same with Nestlé selling water? If no one supported Nestlé they’d continue to bottle up local water supplies and heavily upping the prices? They’d continue to use effectively slave labor for cocoa?

            supply and demand isn’t a magic phrase that makes your theory true. there is no reason to believe animal husbandry will ever stop before people are extinct.

              Each person’s purchases directly lead to consequences. Paying for animal products kills over 200 animals a year per person who does it reguarly. Even if animal abuse will never end it doesn’t mean we should empower or continue supporting it. Especially 3 times a day.
