I agree it is deeply inhumane. However it is still very common for people to eat meat from factory farms, or veal which is inherently tortured. I used to have a kind of cognitive barrier about these things. They come in the store all packaged up in little cubes or whatever. But then I became vegan, and those mental barriers were no longer necessary for me. Now when I see the industrial production of animal flesh for human consumption, it is a deeply gruesome concept. Even the word "meat" is a sort of euphemism so we don't think about the flesh and body parts we consider food. It's all inhumane, but we purposefully do the inhumane parts far away from where it is consumed. The people doing the killing are often there due to economic necessity, and have their fair share of mental trauma from the inhumanity of it all. We have a lot farther to go.
