For decades the food industry has poisoned our animals and consequently poisoned our land and US humans. By forcing our livestock to eat processed grains and garbage for feed. Have them live in horrible conditions. We further plagued our meat and fish with toxins across the board. Grass fed and pasture raised with regenerative farming should be the gold standard and the only standard for the American people. No more factory farming. We have genetically engineered, force fed and mutilated our livestock to the point that they are no longer recognizable from the original. This in consequence has adverse effects on our health long terms. This must change. We should not stray from the natural process.
I understand the concerns raised about large-scale farming operations, particularly with their environmental impact and animal welfare issues. However, instead of pushing for an outright ban, a more effective solution might be to introduce stronger regulations on these operations. This could include improved animal welfare standards, better waste management practices, and incentives for farmers to adopt more sustainable and ethical practices. Large-scale farming plays a role in meeting global food demand, so balancing efficiency with responsibility is a more practical way forward.
In principle very much agree with this, and think the debate around veganism vs animal-eating should be a debate for and against pasture raised with regenerative farming. Right now everyone can agree factory farming is messed up! Let’s come together on that issue rather than stay divided distracted as vegans vs non-vegans, and allow factory farming to continue
I just signed up and I’ve finally found the topic I’ve been SO passionate about and heartbroken as well. The conditions our government approves of concerning our fellow sentient beings. It no longer can be disputed. Animals are sentient beings. They have feelings and emotions. Back when there was a fight to stop this, there wasn’t positive indisputable proof of the sentience. Not only that people then eat this energy of sorrow torture and pain from these animals they have feelings and emotions so this needs to end thank you for bringing the subject up it took me forever to find it because I didn’t want to start a policy that was already here thank you.
Kelsea, thank you for your input. I 100% need to disagree but I also am hoping that, because you appear to be a informed well educated critical thinking individual and we are the globalists worst enemy and their biggest fear! The factorization of our fellow sentient beings has nothing to do with food shortages or having enough space to treat these sentient beings. It’s now an undisputable fact that these animals have emotions, and feelings and they deserve to live out their life with respect, dignity and the opportunities needed for them to thrive and have a standard of living and quality of life they deserve. Learning from the true natives of the United States of America and when they took the life of an animal that was allowed a full life, they’d show gratitude and give thanks. We’re in no threat of running out of food and when We the People are given the opportunity to be relieved of so much of the Government’s involvement… I’d also like you to reconsider calling this monstrosity “large scale farming.” I understand that if there was an actual food shortage to indeed be true? There’s still better options but of course I expect you to do your own research away from the government’s answers and the MSM answers, and use, of course a search engine that’s programmed to direct you to the “narrative” and not have the information even available… Also I’d like to please ask that you check out Mercy for Animals and watch their undercover films. The life of a calving and milking cow for example Kelsea. Not enough room to even turn around, lay down, and her entire life hasn’t seen the sunshine, grazed, and got to accept her choice of which bull… No turning around, can’t lay down and is raped with a turkey baster. She gives birth and it’s the most beautiful thing ever. She gets to see her calve immediately being taken away to be put in a dark box(veal) the calve bawls, the mother LITERALLY not exaggerating here BAWLS for at least 12 whole days for her baby. People are drinking that kind of energy when they drink milk. This not only affects our animals but the people who consume this despair and sorrow. Pigs give birth and have to watch her babies being thrown on to a conveyor belt right in front of her. She’s never got to turn around or lay down or roll in the mud and get the experience of mating. This entire disgusting operation has nothing to do with space or food shortages. And you also mentioned global food shortages? America needs to feed Americans and of course we’ll always help our allies but again we’ve plenty of food and we’ve plenty of space and resources to figure out how to keep ourselves fed. Big incentives to people who want to help feed us by actual farming and we could even get some “Large scale farming” operations going on!! That’s nothing to do with putting our loving fellow souls in conditions worse than a Nazi concentration camp, shooting em up with growth hormones and God knows what else and serving it up to the American people?? Truly the government had their chance and we’ll figure it out just like we’ve done before they decided to turn a buck. As the true natives and when we handled our farming industry with assistance but not control from our govt. We need to get them from this too long torture. They’re sentient!! I hope that you are as intelligent as you seem and you’ll find facts that would change your current belief about shortages or space and follow the money. We’ve plenty of everything. They’ve botched it and if we don’t save those poor creatures that we need to respect if we want to respect ourselves… Thank you. I’m coming for them and I need help. Not ever seeing the light of day or the moonlight of night. Grass grazing, mud rolling, animal rutting calves and piglets and chicks with their Mom… We owe them that.

As a livestock farmer, and with my husband having grown up on a dairy farm, I’ve seen firsthand what it takes to raise animals responsibly. While I absolutely understand the need for better animal welfare practices, not all large-scale farms operate the way you described. Many of us are deeply committed to the well-being of our animals. Rather than demonizing the industry, I think it’s more productive to focus on realistic improvements and enforcing higher welfare standards without dismissing the value that farms of all sizes provide to the food system.
Let’s have that conversation, I’m all ears on changes we can make.
Focus should be on factory farming methods destroying our soils…not just animal husbandry.
This also requires:
-More funding and less regulation on small farmers.
-Reducing laws/ordinances that ban farming your own property.
-Incentives for people to start growing their own food.
-Funding for community gardens/food forests in public parks. (with emphasis on native plants and permaculture methods)
I agree with this, we should ensure that animals have at least decent living standards. Excellent suggestion.
I understand and respect your reply. It’s the USDA making the factorization of animals ok and adding Animal Sentience to the legislation will be the first step in ending the horrific treatment of our fellow sentient beings. It is a lie about having a food shortage or lack of space. Ignoring an animal their way of life and quality of life and standard of living. Not giving them their dignity and then their energy of sorrow is consumed… There is a better solution
I thought the ideas highlighted in the Netflix documentary “Kiss the ground” were intriguing. Love to hear about anyone’s reactions…
