This is clearly not the case, else nobody would be willing to work for a factory farm.
The opposite appears to be true. People become desensitized - at least the ones who can handle the initial shock. Also, in some regions of the world (and in developed countries), generations have grown up with a company mentality and seem incapable of considering things from any other perspective.
- goldenkey 8y agoIts different when you are slaughtering animals endlessly as a job versus hunting for food. The former will make you a morbid psychopath. The latter will give you reverence for the animal and the hunt and your position in it.
- blunte 8y agoI don't disagree. However, I would argue that there are vastly fewer food hunters than factory farm workers.
