Of course I agree about CAFOs! I wrote about this just a few months ago
(around the issue of "agroecology") on this very topic here in this forum,
Louis. I usually never disagree with the *descriptions* of what passes for
animal husbandry in the US and Brazil and other countries, it's the narrow,
self-serving half-truths about this that disgust me. As if there is no
other way to raise animals; as if the only solution is stop (choose your
poison) eating them, breeding them, 'exploiting' them, etc. This is why
such lifestyle politics is so deranged and even reactionary.

Just as long as you understand the  problem with CAFOs, we have no issue 
with this outburst.

I find the author of this article rather pretentious and basically awful. I
should of stopped reading after this disgusting analogy where she wrote
"The first is a Facebook post I saw last July: “People will give up straws
to save fish, but they won’t stop eating fish to save fish.” In other
words, the individual fish don’t matter, only “fish” do...". What an
asshole. That fish provides 2.5 billion people of the world with most of
their protein, and 90% of these in poor developing countries seems
irrelevant to her. It's only about the suffering of the little
fishes...Typical narrow minded PRIVILEGED vegan fools.
