For me it was thumping, the industry standard way of killing piglets by grabbing them by the back of the head and smashing them into concrete until they're dead. That or the CO_2 acidifying every mucus lining in a pig's body, chemically burning them alive while they suffocate to death because people get enjoyment out of it

But it's just capitalism and its consequences.

I hate the meat industry am much as the next vegetarian, but this makes for very poor memes.
