A big reason for optimism about the end of animal farming is that it doesn't have to be the end of meat.

The vast majority of people eat animal products not because of how they’re produced, but in spite of it.

We don’t make a distinction between factory slavery and humane slavery or cruel genocide and painless genocide. We, rightly so, condemn the entire institution.

Many years from now, our descendants will look back on the use of animals for food—particularly the intense animal suffering in factory farms—as a moral atrocity.
