yeah, killing the animals so you can consume their flesh, after all their lives being in a enclosed space designed to maximise the profits, isn't bad or torture for the animals. the bad things happening to them from that life is just a byproduct of wanting to use their corpses for other things, so it can be considered torture, right?

it doesn't matter what is the explicit or direct intent, they are being abused, mistreated and tortured, just for personal and human gain.

you can torture other people physically, emotionally or psychologicaly without it being the direct intent for your actions, but the torture will still be there.

torture is intentional. the pain and distress caused by farming is only incidental.
