You can keep telling yourself that if it helps.
if you have evidence to the contrary, you should present it.
I'm guessing they mean factory farming
in torture, the pain is the point. while i think factory farming is too ambivalent about suffering, i also believe the suffering is only incidental, not intentional. it's not torture.
perhaps you could explain that subtle difference to the animals going through the system of abuse.
Im sure it would brighten up their days no end to realise the pain they are experiencing is not the point of the system and that therefore, they are not being tortured.
i don't think i can, no. but propagandists can choose to stop using emotionally charged and incorrect terms.
funny that a person called commie doesn't understand exploitation.
this is just posturing and rhetoric. i have no problem with most forms of exploitation (this is true of most people i think). my problem is unfair, or even non-consensual, exploitation of other people.
Nice one comrade!
it is nice to have an examined world-view and be able to defend it, even against the most sinister sophists and zealots.
have you ever paid anyone at a factory farm? i haven't, and i don't think most people have.
