There is a long rich tradition of underage children dying in meat processing plants.
Yeah, we need better child labor laws and meat processing plant regulations, and those keep being overturned.
While the easy concept of “what if no meat industry” is easy to imagine, and I am for it, it’s not realistic and would simply move the industry to a 3rd world country and transfer through there. Why don’t vegans ever consider a 90% approach: if you get people to consume something that is 90% not meat, that’s the equivalent getting 90% of the group vegetarian. Then it’s an easier sell for vegetarianism, and as we develop lab meats, less must replaced.
Also, jw, would you be willing to eat human meat if they consented before hand and were disease free. I have a 93% yes rate, and I usually ask friends of friends when I meet them.
It would still require animals that have been genetically engineered to produce as much mass as quickly as possible to exist. Less suffering is good, but the real goal is to end this cruel and unnecessary system.
