Comedian Blasts factory farming

[Catherine]

It might seem disrespectful or somehow off to make the suffering of animals in factory farms part of a comedy routine. However when you look at how the audience listened, the idea is brilliant.
People laugh and then they don't laugh.  Aziz Ansari describes how chickens are treated in egg production and even if you laughed, the image is going to stay with you.

The idea of a bag full of male chicks suffocating is hard to shake. Whatever it takes to get the message across is a good thing. He makes the connection between the conditions the chickens live with and the fact that we feed the "product" of that to our children.   That is something we need to think about.


This video takes a different approach, but it is well done.

If only enough people can see it maybe there will be a will to change things.
