That looks like a hellscape. Great job capitalism you made people think this was progress and profit. Bet that city was beautiful before quarterly earnings reports made themselves the deciding factor if it was gonna rain project manager on any given earnings call.

I hope they don't have a bookie who takes bets on illegal boxing matches. There might be some crunchy stuff in the food for the pigs...

honestly, eating less meat and animal products is one of the most effective things you can probably do on an individual level (other than organizing) to help reduce the overall suffering in the world.

You still have to be aware of what crops are more likely to use human slave labor and whatnot, but the meat and dairy industries are terrible for the animals, the environment, the people who work within them and the people forced to live around them. They also increase the chances of more devastating zoonotic diseases emerging.
