I've spent time at an organic dairy farm, and I was not upset by anything that I saw there. Although it's not a natural way of life for a cow, the animals were treated very well. There were some processes that cause the animals short-term pain, like removing horns to ensure they don't hurt each other, but there was definitely no long-term suffering; certainly not around the milking process.
I do completely agree that the vast majority of milk production is done in an unethical way and I find mass-produced milk to taste terrible, but I've done my research and I am satisfied that milk can be produced in a responsible way.
