Eat A Sausage. Do It For The Animals.

“The ‘happy meat’ movement is intended to make the public feel more comfortable about animal exploitation and to ensure that social discussion about animal ethics remains focused away from the relevant question—why are we eating animals in the first place given that it is not necessary for human health, is an ecological disaster, and, most importantly, results in our imposing suffering and death on sentient nonhumans?”
Excerpt from:
“Happy Meat:” Making Humans Feel Better About Eating Animals
“Animal exploitation is so deeply embedded in our society, culture, and history that we are not used to viewing it as on the same level as other forms of discrimination. If anything is ever to change, we are going to have to *think* our way out of this mess and be clear we cannot justify the use of animals—however ‘humane’ our treatment may be. As long as we are not recoiling from characterizing animal corpses and animal products as a ‘luxury,’ or accepting that we do not have to be vegan when we find it ‘very difficult, very inconvenient,’ we have not even started the process.”
