    You’re trying to draw a moral equivalence between being a migrant farm worker and being tortured, raped, and killed. I’m genuinely at a loss for words.

      I was asking a sincere question, to be frank, but I can see that’s not welcome among your peers here. If I was drawing any moral equivalence though, it would be between said “migrant farm worker” 's inability to provide for their very human child in any way that resembles stability much less any chance to escape the exploitive cycle of our system and an animal “being tortured” “and killed”. (I’m not aware of any food product that first rapes the animals, fyi.)

        Dairy. Cows have to be kept pregnant so that they keep producing milk.
