Thanks for answering me guys I still dont wanna watch it.
Killing is a understatement, one of the cows they put up in a machine, slit its throat, and turned it around and around like a freaking ferris wheel. They shoot cows in the heads with what looks to be nail guns, they grind baby male chicks in a grinder. And those are just a few of what was done.

Ok sure, if you say so!
I think that this kind of thing is completely acceptable. Firstly because we are the dominant species in this world, we can and should do whatever we find culturally acceptable. We need our beef, and this is the easiest way to get it. I don't see anything wrong with that.
Besides that, what does it matter if some dumb animal feels some pain in the moments before it's death? The workers obviously don't care, so why should we? They only reason that someone would say "oh this is so bad and unacceptable" is because they are ignorant. This goes on a hundred thousand times a day, every day, in every country.
I could guilt trip you every day of the week, about much more meaningful stuff (deforestation of rain-forests just so you can get your toilet paper huh? pollution of oceans and rivers from your soap? etc etc), but the bottom line is no one really cares.
People as a whole do not care about this meaningless shit, they just want their big mac.
Your right, we do need our beef and our proteins, but we dont have to fucking do this to animals, look at my post about my grandpas farm, how about people get off there lazy fucking asses and work for their beef instead of just driving their fat selves to mcdonalds and getting big macs every day. This is what some slavery was/is like around the world, Imagine this being humans. Look at the mayans ? Is it ok because its their "culture" to slit the necks of people and drink their blood ?

I agree with Gorman to a certain degree. Yes, the methods above are the most cost and time efficient. Sure some farmers well keep free range and humanly dealt with meat and market it as such. But most consumers and organisations prefer cheaper meat which will always be the market favourite. Morals only come second to profit. That will never and shouldn't change.
What I don't agree with Gorman on, is that we shouldn't care. We should always look for more sustainable and humane methods of dealing with things and guilt is a perfect way of motivating people into doing so.

This is just sad, how could you think this?
Really, did you see what they did to the calf? Fucking beat them, one dude was punching them in the face, stabbing them with pitch forks. Would you want your first born child, to be taken away, punched in the face, kicked, stabbed, have it's arms cut off, hung by it's feet, have his balls cut off, then have his throat slit and left there to die? Because that's what their doing to the calf.
