Animal exploiters will tell you and anyone else who is against what they\u2019re doing that you\u2019re wrong, extreme, ignorant, uneducated, and simply don\u2019t know what you\u2019re talking about. 'Have you ever been to a dairy farm?', is a typical question they\u2019ll use when people badmouth their vile industries. Implying you can\u2019t actually know what you\u2019re talking about because you\u2019ve never even stepped foot onto a farm. With this logic we also can\u2019t assume that prisons and concentration camps aren\u2019t good places to have to exist since we\u2019ve never visited them personally.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/blockquote>\n\n

UNPARALLELED SUFFERING:<\/strong> Animal abusers who \u201cfarm\u201d animals have a large arsenal of excuses, arguments, and propaganda tactics to appease their own consciousness as well as the consciousness of those who choose to support their evil practices. When informed people who truly care about animals speak the truth about what awfulness and injustice takes place in various animal ag industries farmers are always quick to deflect, discredit, dismiss, and debunk.<\/em><\/p>\n

For example, as far as dismissing and debunking goes, if someone disapprovingly expresses how the calves are taken away from mother cows immediately after birth in the dairy industry a dairy farmer or someone else associated with the industry or animal agriculture in general may reply that no harm is committed within this practice since the mother lacks maternal instincts (since they\u2019ve been \u201cbred out\u201d of her) so she doesn\u2019t actually mind her baby being abducted, the baby is now safer (because mom could \u201cinjure or kill them\u201d), and it\u2019s also healthier for the calf since now they can be bottle fed colostrum (that they would have otherwise nursed naturally from their mother if given the chance)…<\/em><\/p>\n

No matter how much you\u2019ve seen and taken in firsthand, animal exploiters will still tell you and anyone else who is against what they\u2019re doing that you\u2019re wrong, extreme, ignorant, uneducated, and simply don\u2019t know what you\u2019re talking about… \u201cHave you ever been to a dairy farm\u201d and \u201cYou should actually visit a dairy farm\u201d are comments they\u2019ll use when people badmouth their vile industries. This is to imply that if you just get off your ass and actually go to an animal farm yourself you\u2019ll see how wonderful they are and how they aren\u2019t the mean places you\u2019ve seen in photos, videos, and writings that all capture reality in an easy-to-understand and shareable way. You can\u2019t actually know what you\u2019re talking about because you\u2019ve never even stepped foot onto a farm. With this logic I guess we also can\u2019t assume that prisons, detention centers, homeless shelters, and concentration camps aren\u2019t good places to have to exist since we\u2019ve never visited them personally…<\/em><\/p>\n

The question shouldn\u2019t be \u201chave you ever even been to a farm,\u201d the question should be \u201chave you ever even been to a farmed animal sanctuary?\u201d In other words, have you ever seen what\u2019s possible, or have you ever seen the radically different way that we can treat these animals\u2014a way that doesn\u2019t automatically deal them a lifetime of trauma, misery, suffering, and unimaginable pain. Because this is the way farmed animals could live, should live, and deserve to live\u2014if they are already in existence.<\/em><\/p>\n

And sadly far too many people are unaware of this type of relationship with and environment for animals. Even worse, way too many people are not even curious to explore this much evolved and just form of cohabitating with other life. We have ethical alternatives to nearly everything and we owe the golden rule to others who happened to be born inside the bodies of other species. The ethical alternative to animal exploitation farms isn\u2019t a better exploitation farm that\u2019s a little less mean or violent or degrading, the ethical alternative is a farm that doesn\u2019t exploit animals in the first place, but rather provides them with love, care, compassion, and the ability to thrive and live in the type of peace that we all wish for ourselves.
