We keep talking about “sustainability” but sustainability is a secondary issue here.

The primary issue is that we are taking individuals and basically torturing and/or killing them, rarely for good reasons.

It won’t even be decades before our descendants look back at horror for how we treat them, not unlike how we can’t even imagine how our ancestors thought it was ok to have human slaves.

The major difference will be that the horrors of human chattel slavery (even the name clearly links it to how we treat non human animals) have largely only been recorded via text. The horrors of our actions will be available in text, images, videos for all to see in perpetuity by just looking at an Instagram archive.
