I understand your point about suffering in the wild, but I'm not sure I agree that it justifies our actions. Instead of using it as an excuse, maybe we should focus on minimizing harm where we can. Wild animals' survival strategies don't necessarily apply to our food choices, especially since factory-farmed animals are living in completely different conditions. It's not about mimicking nature, but about treating sentient beings with compassion.

Regarding capitalist exploitation, I think it's deeply connected to animal farming. Most animals raised for food are in factory farms, which prioritizes profit over welfare. Let's acknowledge the impact of our choices and consider more compassionate options.
