Future Generations Will View Meat-Eating Like Slavery

Future generations will likely view current meat-eating practices as analogous to slavery, because it is easy to imagine what will be seen as monstrous a hundred years from now, with the treatment of non-human animals obvious on that list alongside indifference to the suffering of the very poor; humanity may be causing more animal suffering than ever before due to factory breeding, complicating Pinker's narrative of moral progress.
