Unashamed omnivore, fisher, and hunter here. Working on our play farm so we can source all of our meat ethically in the future. Taking active steps to prevent the suffering of animals we consume. Don't have an ethical or moral problem with killing animals to eat them. Prefer to do it myself so that I know that I have done my best to minimize the suffering of the critters I kill.
I've been told I'm a raper and abuser.
fite me
I think your mentality is great. I've heard people say, "Sure I'll eat a burger, but what kind of psychopath wants to kill an animal themselves?"
I don't know, what kind of a psychopath pays an industry to do it for them so they don't have to feel bad about it? Look, I get it, I don't hunt. But I respect the people who respectfully end the animal's life themselves. Only they can really understand the cost. We just throw away some old chicken we forgot to cook while passing judgment on who we paid to get it for us and how they did it.
The mental health issues among abattoir workers is way above the national average. It takes a toll.
Out of sight, out of mind. We have professional wet workers for a reason. If everyone had to do this shit themselves, much of it wouldn't get done. Hell, I still stay up at night thinking about my elderly dog being put to sleep in front of me at the vet's. If I'd had to push that syringe down myself, I'd have probably sawed my own hand off by now, purely out of shame.
Perhaps this is the perspective people need.
