Comment on Canada suspends imports from biggest US pork processing plant
jerkface@lemmy.ca 5 weeks agoWe should only be consuming Canadian animals which we know are treated better.
This is how people brainwash themselves into feeling good about committing cruelty and violence. I managed to go for years being an “ethical consumer of animals” before I stopped lying to myself.

It’s not even true that Canadian animals are treated better. We have some of the worst animal protection laws in the Western world. For example, if it’s -31C out, and you know that animals will die suffering exposure on the truck that you’re loading to haul for 16 hours with no food or water, that’s perfectly okay. Not only is it not a crime, it’s business as usual.
