    Are you telling me that there is not a single fish that gets farmed outside of factories?

      There’s not a single fish that gets farmed outside of farms. Fish farms are definitionally CAFOs. They’re also terrible for the environment and raise poor quality fish.

      But not all fish you’d be able to buy is farm fish. Most of it is, and the amount of non farm fish is diminishing.

      You can get non CAFO farm fish but generally these are at niche restaurants that serve things like “fresh caught catfish” and have a pond behind the restaurant. And even the small business those places do is often too much for their little pond and as much as half will be bought from a supplier.

        Not in areas where fishing is a big industry. So, much of the coasts.

      That’s the most pointless piece of data I’ve ever read - why would you include it? I now have problems accepting the veracity of the others; and possibly the mindset of the compiler.

      There are wild caught fish but those don’t count as farmed. We don’t have a lot of wild caught cows on the other hand.

    You sure have been posting a lot of low-effort memes that just hate on other people recently.

      “Hate” is a loaded term. It’s more akin to making fun of your friends. I want the best for my meat eater neighbours.

        Well, I would say it comes across as a little hateful. Certainly not inviting of people who might be open to veganism but aren’t yet vegan.

          When society does certain actions to harm sentient beings it needs to be called out as the world should be a transparent and fair place. When I did bad things in the past my society threw the book at me multiple times without explaining why my actions were harmful, thankfully I learned from my mistakes and decided to do better as everyone can do.

          The vegan memes coming off a little hateful is subjective as I could argue from my position that the meat eater lifestyle is hateful towards the animals and vegans as it requires animal product sacrifices.
