Food chain? How is any of what we do a part of the food chain?
The food chain a natural process of survival of the fittest: every creature has the chance to fight for their life, and the deaths are usually quick and swift blows to key points, like the neck.
What we do is shove helpless animals through a factory in an endless and often cruel “chain”—it’s a chain of some sort…—of mass slaughter. That’s after having them locked up in (often very) inhumane conditions. We’ve completely side-stepped the food chain.
You’re right, we have turned it into nothing more than another production line. We’ve turned lives into product. But that has nothing to do with the food chain, and everything to do with our desire for a quick easy buck over compassion. How can we justify that except in the most cold, heartless way? Except in separating it from our sight so we don’t have to think about it?
(And we don’t consume our “natural” diet in any stretch of the word anymore.)
@Baddreamer27, I think her “beef” is that she doesn’t “agree with abusing an animal it’s entire life to simply knock it off, cut it up and eat it”, either
