The children yearn for the head splitters.

tbh this kind of shit was the reason I don't eat animal products anymore, this industry just loves exploiting children and putting workers in danger and ruining lives. Something about the blood just makes the managers bloodthirsty.

Really? You'd say its the animal abuse but OK

My breaking point was workers being marched to their deaths during the worst of COVID and those Tyson managers literally gambling on it.

I still eat meat, but I will NEVER willingly buy anything that I know is from Tyson

No true Scotsman?

Arguably human abuse is a higher priority than animal abuse, but I acknowledge that opinions differ on the subject.
