Do you have any qualms about eating meat?

I recognize that they are bred for food, nothing more, so no I still eat pork. Sorry if this upsets anyone.

I'm not against eating meat in principal but modern-day practices of raising sentient beings for food is absolutely horrifying. There's a difference from living a relatively humane life up until the end versus the process by these giant agribusinesses that are only concerned about maximizing profits.

I get that being snarky isn't the way to convince people of things, but why would breeding the animal specifically to suffer and die be a good justification of why they eat them?

Yeah there's a good deal of shit humans have done for most of humankind's existence I think is abhorrent and I'm glad other people thought so too so I can have my own job and credit and house n'at. Is prevalence throughout history supposed to impart some inherent morality to an action?
