This thread is full of leftists who don’t “feel good” about factory farming, but still abide it abide it whether it’s under a capitalist system or a socialist system. China’s socialist and hasn’t abolished factory farming. Y’all don’t “feel good” about it but it’s an acceptable practice because fundamentally we disagree on the rights of humans versus non-human life. You could also put a decent dent in the power of capitalism, environmental damage, consumerism, and waste if you prioritized eliminating the capitalists while retooling the system. But that kind of talk is what’s gotten me banned from Reddit repeatedly.
“Lots of modern writing is still just words”. Words without action are just “thoughts and prayers” of liberals acknowledging a problem to signal virtue publicly while quietly ignoring the problem or agreeing to pass it on to a later generation. Tell me, do you “feel bad” because you empathize with the suffering, or do you “feel bad” because you’re ashamed you are aware of the suffering yet put little effort into correcting it? Or is “feeling bad” one of the points you don’t actually believe?

Like I said, lots of modern writing on it. But apparently arguing against points I don’t actually believe is easier.
