Im incredibly cruel to plants. Fortunately, they don't have the capability to suffer.

So you want to control and train minorities to serve you, got cha. I have not been to Brazil in 25 years but I am confident that you and that hippy hogwash will not be well received.

Why am i supposed to care about Brazil again?
"Train minorities to serve you". Well, that's capitalism. Work is often outsourced to different countries. And why wouldn't minority laborers want to work in a veggie burger factory as opposed to a slaughterhouse if wages were similar?
Working in a slaughterhouse probably sucks.

Well, "feel pain" is a highly debatable wording. Emmitting responses to stress is not the same as an organism with a brain, nerves, and emotion.
It is interesting though but a pretty silly argument to make when debating food ethics. I doubt anyone thinks beating a dog is the same as cutting your grass.
But i know people get a kick out of telling vegans that their food is screaming

Actually there are studies done already on a tree that they have a reaction when something is chewing on them or cutting them, it causes the release of anti'browser chemicals. The tree does feel it, but we just cannot hear it screaming. But certain frequency meters can pick it up.
Don't let this keep you from eating your veggies though, we need to eat too.
