IF SLAUGHTERHOUSES HAD GLASS WALLS… A LOT OF PEOPLE WOULD STILL EAT MEAT.

If all that was needed to convince people to stop eating animals was to expose them to the horrors of factory farms and slaughterhouses, every person who has ever seen a video on the meat industry would be a vegan. The dominant view of our culture is that humans are entitled to use nonhuman animals in service to our needs. The growing popularity of “humane meat” speaks to our movement’s success in exposing the horrors of the factory farm – and our utter failure to challenge the underlying idea that animals are ours to use for food. If we want to truly abolish the meat industry rather than simply generating business for “happy meat” mongers, we need to attack animal oppression at its foundation by challenging the premise that human interests take precedence over those of nonhuman animals and that animals exist for our use.

We need to challenge speciesism.
