@Tacitdimension2 @WB_Baskerville there is relatively robust (although also debated, criminology is a mess) evidence that working in slaughterhouses is associated with antisocial behavior, including after correcting for SES https://t.co/vp5vWgDB8o Then even if it were true that slaughterers or butchers are https://t.co/oh5Aad2T8g
@BakedGoodsYYC The system is horrible, I agree, and migrant workers are treated horribly. And I am not understating that. However, there are unique psychological traumatic effects to working in a factory farm. I don’t think this is worth overlooking either. https://t.co/qYTKsZOfxq

@SteakPhilosophy Your evidence is an anecdote, so it isn't very robust evidence & certainly doesn't support the notion that meat heals in & of itself. So what's your take on slaughterhouse workers' mental health issues? Meat certainly isn't healing them, is it? https://t.co/j6dtEtsNXr
@RoachOwner @realdanstilwell @peta @WeAnimals Yes, working in the slaughterhouse is such a great job https://t.co/mEvA8SIK16
@vwjohn @ImKhan70 I guess you're a climate change denier. And you demonstrate you have no empathy. You have just acknowledged you have no feelings towards vulnerable animals. If killing animals is OK why do so many slaughterhouse workers suffer from psychological issues? https://t.co/Ji4vlrpQNk

@Capone2434 @lost_worlds27 @herbivore_club Yeah, I might give that a miss. I read an article the other day that slaughterhouse workers have problems with violence and mental health. Anything could happen
"SHWs had higher levels of vulnerability, psychological “disadjustment,” anxiety, and depression compared with both controls. Within SHW—those involved in cutting processes have much higher rates." https://t.co/Hx4ZwCwex9 #mental #health #scholarly #peer #reviewed #humanrights https://t.co/84452nSEFY
