“The Animal Protection Denmark welfare group says that sows are bred in the Danish pig industry to produce about 20 piglets at a time, but only have 14 teats, forcing the piglets to compete for breastmilk, leading to starvation of many.”

There’s a difference between being forced to compete with your siblings for food and intentionally being starved to make a point.

Yeah. In one case you get rescued by an activist and have media write about you, and in the other you die in a factory and are thrown in the trash with many others.

Interestingly listening to an article talking about the hollowness of words, making unethical things seem ethical.
