documentary

The Earthlings

So intense. I just feel sort of... bad. Is all that violence really necessary? Perhaps to sustain our cheap meat hungry nation...

Yes, perhaps they show the worst of the worst, but that worst still occurs...and occurs daily behind the doors of those global meatmakers. The doc didn't even mention the human rights issues involved in the abuse of the workers that are occasionally enslaved in these corporate institutions.

Perhaps watching this with my 16 year old sister wasn't the best idea. She had a lot of good arguments for it tho...super analytical and majorly mature. When is the best time to expose someone to a particular reality? eesh.
