    I think this is where the disconnect is. It’s not just milking an animal. It’s getting her pregnant, taking her child away from her shortly after birth and killing it. It’s keeping her trapped in a tiny pen for her whole life, barely able to move. Then, when she can no longer produce milk, kill her, 6 years into her 20-year lifespan.

    Dairy is cruel. Arguably more cruel than meat.

      Exactly this. I’d kinda rather people ate meat and not dairy than the opposite, the dairy industry is fucked up.
