People can speculate on ethics however without having experience on every little issue though, no?

For example, I speculate that animals that are born and then subsequently killed in factory procedures essentially don't live a life anyway, and that no, they don't suffer because from the videos I have seen of the process, it's pretty quick and mechanical. Like a lot of other factory processes, but with a creature that doesn't have a clue as to what living a normal life is actually like.
