CO2 Gas Chamber Rule

even if farm animals were slaughtered in the most humane and painless of ways, the way they’re treated while they’re alive is still horrifyingly atrocious

Go vegan

Instead, she suggests pigs could be genetically bred to have a less violent reaction to CO2

there's a lot of messed up shit in that article but this is so sinister

did anything ever happen after the videos were released?

Wtf the Meat Industry copied Auschwitz? 💀

And here I thought watching my grandma's pig slaughter was painful by just slicing their throats. Holy shit.

Repeating the post body context in the comments: Spy Cams Reveal the Grim Reality of Slaughterhouse Gas Chambers

Also before someone comes here commenting about nitrogen as if it's a perfect painless method, it's got problems too:

Hypoxia produced by N2 and Ar appears to reduce, but not eliminate, aversive responses [escape attempts and gasping] in pigs

[...]

These gases [Nitrogen and Argon] tend to cause more convulsive wing flapping in poultry than CO2 in air mixtures

Yeah, I figured before reading this would fly like the nitrogen gas executions that some state penal systems are trying. (As revealed on _Last Week Tonight.) Sure enough it's awful.

Right now, my household is drastically reducing meat as we can (which is made easier by the rising prices of meat). Whether we have good tasty fake meat made out of vegetable matter or cultured meat that was never a full animal, I'll be glad for when it's affordable.

Who doesn't want to leave a sparkly, effervescent corpse after dying of asphyxiation and painful organ failure due to excessive carbonic acid buildup?

I'll have the brain bullet, thanks.

Pignorant is another investigation into UK gas chambers for pigs that's available on Prime video btw.

Let's abolish slaughterhouses.

Is this another vegan circlejerk channel now?

I've read the article and damn, this is disturbing af. Isn't this pig killing method basically the same as what nazi used on humans?

...I'll try to reduce the amount of meat in my diet

Co2 is the worst gad to suffocate in. Please just put me in a room full of nitrogen instead

Are you totally fine with the moral consequences of enforced veganism on the entire human population? I'm asking this because you must also understand that there are going to be seriously detrimental and inescapable outcomes associated with that as well. Life only comes from death. You can fundamentally dislike the arrangement, but as far as we are aware that is a necessary input-output relationship. Choosing which deaths you are okay with is simply trading one Faustian bargain for another.

I'm recently diagnosed diabetic so this shit just angers me on multiple levels. Good job, body. Now we have to limit carbs, and all the meat is cruel, guess I'll live on fucking greens and cheese.

What? Jesus man come on!

Couldn't care less about killing and eating animals, but it's pretty fucked how we go about it.

I tend to focus more of their quality of life before their death day. Like, a swift needle to the brain seems pretty okay compared to being stacked nearly on top of each other in their own waste for much of their lives.
