Scratch marks on the holding pen doors where 23,000 pigs were slaughtered weekly in an Ontario slaughterhouse. They were desperately trying to break free before being sent to the gas chamber. Not "cruelty"; a mass atrocity historians will write about one day.
On the conveyor belt to her execution 👺On the conveyor belt to her death 💔Humans are insane creatures. Greed and gluttony are often stronger than justice compassion and love. It does not need to be. #LiveVegan because you care ✌️
🔥🥵🐖 Hier een video van de varkens die in het compartiment van de truck zaten waar het 39 graden was…. Buiten was het 34 graden. Ongelooflijk kwalijk dat dit is toegestaan. #varkens#veetransport#hittestress#hitteprotocol
THE TEARS OF A BULL BEFORE SLAUGHTER 💔
I recently saw a video that has deeply disturbed me and I cannot erase it from my mind.
A bull stood tied with ropes, moments away from slaughter, crying like a helpless child.
Not metaphorically. Not exaggerated. Real tears streamed continuously from his eyes until the ground beneath him became wet. His entire body shook uncontrollably with fear. He pulled desperately against the ropes, looked around in panic, and stared into the faces of the people surrounding him as though begging for someone - anyone - to save him.
And in his terrified eyes, there was a question no human being should ever ignore:
“What have I done to deserve this?”
He did not understand religion. He did not understand rituals. He did not understand sacrifice.
He had the sentience of a three years old human child.
He only understood fear. He only understood pain. He only understood that death was coming.
Imagine the horror of smelling blood in the air… hearing the cries of other animals… watching bodies being skinned before your own eyes… and realising that you are next.
People often speak of animals as though they are emotionless objects. But this bull cried, trembled, resisted, and pleaded for life exactly the way a terrified child would. Science itself confirms that such animals experience fear, attachment, trauma, and emotional suffering at profound levels.
What shattered me the most was this:
The bull trusted humans.
Perhaps the very same hands that once fed him, stroked his head, and raised him from infancy were now dragging him towards death. He could not comprehend betrayal. He could not understand why the people he depended upon had suddenly become the source of his terror.
And yet this horrifying act is often dressed in the language of “faith,” “reward,” and “piety.”
But when a living being stands before us shaking with fear, crying uncontrollably for mercy, looking into our eyes wanting to live… how can ending that life ever become an act pleasing to God?
Can compassion and cruelty truly coexist in the same act?
Can the Creator of mercy really find joy in the tears of a helpless creature?
I do not know what theology says.
But my heart says those tears were not meaningless.
Animals fight for their lives, yet people still say they don’t care about dying. 😔
The reality is - they do. We just choose not to see it. 💔

Imagine spending all day, every day standing on metal wire. It's what egg-laying hens endure.
It's horrid, yet the #Egg Industry doesn't care about the pain and discomfort that hens face 24/7. They just care about MONEY. 🚫🥚🚫
Do you think people mistake choices with rights? 👀
Is something still a “personal choice” if it impacts someone else negatively? 💔

The final 15 seconds of life for this #cow. 💔
The best way to reject this cruelty and sadness is by leaving animals off of your plate. RT if you agree.
We do not know why we are in these death traps. We place our heads as far as we can through the air holes, inhaling the gusts of wind, exhilarated and terrified. We want to live.
