realcaseyrollinsKids Are Working in America’s Meatpacking Plants
Aniki 🌱🌿Meat is a choice and it’s a bad one.
how can you look at this and not see child labor as the obvious problem?
ElcaineVoltano one should be forced to work in these conditions
is anyone being “forced”? i agree, nobody should be forced, especially not children.
lots of people are being forced, often immigrants and refugees. would you like to slash throats all day in the dismemberment factory?
you’re assuming a lot here about the workers in that plant
wow, you haven't looked into this, like, at all
and you have? what, with all the evidence you have to back up your claim?
literally the first article that came up searching for slaughterhouses
https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2016/08/11/489468205/working-the-chain-slaughterhouse-workers-face-lifelong-injuries
The workers, most often immigrants and resettled refugees, slaughter and process hundreds of animals an hour, forced to work at high speeds in cold conditions, doing thousands of the same repetitions over and over, with few breaks.
not that I expect evidence to change your mind
ok, so you and the author of this article clearly have a problem understanding the word “forced”-- if they can choose to quit, they’re not being “forced”. yes, the job is terrible, and conditions should be improved, but it’s clear that you care more about people processing/eating meat that these people’s working conditions. and that’s why this isn’t the “gotcha” you think it is.
Geeze. You literally just refuse to acknowledge sources when they’re handed to you. That is just sad.
And if you think that anyone chose to be in some of the worst working conditions known to man just because they can choose between quitting and starving to death, then I’d say that’s downright ghoulish.
It’s not your sources I refuse to acknowledge, it’s your specious, fallacious argument that “the meat industry can be exploitative, therefore veganism.”
