I debated about posting this a lot, but decided I'd post it with a note:
this is graphic and kind of gross, so don't watch it if you don't want to:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCX7f_s1CA4I used to hate watching those kinds of videos. Not because they're gross or anything, but because they sort of make you look at something that you're in denial about: where your food actually comes from. It puts a face on the animals that you eat, a face that you don't really want to see.
Basically, it's about how food animals are treated in the current farming structure. They're the situations that people don't think of when they think of farms, but it's something that people ought to be aware of.
For anybody who doesn't know, I'm a vegan, I have been more or less for a few months now.
And yes, this video essentially amounts to propaganda. However, there is still a ton of this stuff going on, and when you eat meat/dairy/eggs, you're supporting this type of thing.
So yeah, there it is for what it's worth. Decide for yourself if you want to watch.
