    Hopefully by “a good life” you’re referring to wild animals, not power farmed ones?

    Because I agree with hunting as deer management is necessary, but factory farming is bullshit and the regulations are just garbage. Animals live in cages where they don’t have the room to turn around, much less moving about and socialising. And you know cows don’t produce milk unless they’ve calfed recently, so they just keep inseminating them as fast as possible after a pregnancy.

    When my grandma was small and tended cows on a rural farm, the cows lived to like 20. Factory farmed cows just keel over on the factory about after five years.

    So idk, if you’d consider being like a child chimney sweep in London 150 years ago to be a good life, then perhaps you can make an argument for factory farming?
