The suffering of sentient beings that directly results from human activity isn’t an accident just because the harm wasn’t the main or direct intention. Factory farming is not ethically justifiable whether it’s cattle, fruit, vegetables, or grain.

Braindead logic is thinking you’re better than anyone else because the creatures you harm get left in the field to rot.

You’re just comfortable with suffering you’re willfully ignorant of. You don’t care about sentience any more than they do.

Good luck harvesting a field of soy without crushing a few field mice or worse

Where are you going to draw the line? If every creature is worthy of consideration there won’t be much left to eat.
