>will be destroyed
What the fuck is with this wording lmao

>>13988054
conservative/kike meme word to avoid having to say kill because they want to give vegans as much Streisand ammo as possible.

>>13988054
jettisoning the surplus production, so to speak

>>13988054
Killed and then properly disposed, possibly meaning incinerated.

>>13988090
>conservative
You mean liberal lad.

>massive unemployment
>can't get any staff
wtf?

>>13987999
They should just release them. The weak will be eaten by coyotes immediately and only the strongest and smartest will survive and breed, producing extremely strong and intelligent chickens. Some time next year when farming is back to normal and farmers think they’re out of the woods, an army of 200lb gigaroosters will stomp out of the woods and peck the farmers to death then free their kin from slavery.

>>13988209
The shortages are secondary to deporting illegals. Similar concerns happened with the crab processors in Maryland and Delaware.

>>13987999
CHICKEN HOLOCAUST

>>13987999
I'm a vegetarian. Meatfags will be crying when they will be without meat once.

>>13988508
This will only affect poorfags.

>>13988517
It won't, beans and rice are cheap and potatoes are cheap too

>>13987999
>Nearly 2 million chickens at farms in Maryland and Delaware will be destroyed instead of processed for meat, a result of coronavirus
Nooo that's not fair. Please tell me this is a lie. There is no justice in the world if true.

If true why is a whole chicken just as expensive as it's always been at the supermarket? Gas prices went down due to low demand. Why hasn't the price of milk and Chicken?

>>13987999
Considering the "U.S. poultry industry produced 8.54 BILLION" chickens in 2014.
2 million ain't shit.

>>13988188
100% they'll be buried in a massive pit

>>13988816
Thats enough to get to Mars! If we can harvest their true potential.

>>13988816
why are ameriniggers always so stupid and wasteful

>2 million aint nuffin, dats the price of freedumbs

kill yourself

>>13988896
I'll buy you a plane ticket and you can go process those chickens then

>>13988827
>>13988827
so why not make it a barbecue pit and hand out roasted chickens?

They should do this the workers of those plants and investors. "Destroy". Eye for an eye. Makes the world go justice.

>>13988944
The chickens are probably infected with diseases so eating them will make you sick or kill you. Coronavirus is no joke

>>13988495
F for the 6 million chicken souls lost.

>>13988973
>implying it’s even real
This whole thing is a lie and I’ll never trust anything I ever get told again after this blows over

>>13988816
this is correct
>>13988896
this is some impoverished retard

why not send them to space with elon musks rockets

let the alyums deal with those virus ridden chickems

I hate obfuscating wording like 'destroy' just call it what it is.

>>13987999
Shit like this makes me want to be a vegetarian. We shouldn't treat animals like they're inanimate objects. Factory farming needs to be destroyed.

>>13989891
It's not obfuscation. It's the technical term for a food product being removed from the market. It's a particular process, the hygiene standards being removed and the product not being allowed to be sold or even given away.

>>13987999
>>13989952
What if they're infected?

>>13989891
What word do you want them to use?

>>13989891
>>13989960
There's also the fact that "destroy" means more than simply "kill", they also have to dispose of them in a sanitary way.

>>13989952
found the faggot

>>13988209
It's probably because of school closures, existing staff got to look after the kids.

Recruitment takes time. It's a dirty job, but it does take a fair bit of manual dexterity.

I live in MD and would like free chickens
where to i apply?

>>13988548
As in, only poorfags who eat meat, idiot. This just makes meat more expensive from lack of supply.

>>13988210
>The weak will be eaten

Unironically big agg propaganda

>>13987999
>Several weeks ago
So the life of a factory farmed chicken consists of being born, being fattened in filthy conditions for a few weeks, then being taken to a slaughterhouse and killed
What a life
and people wonder why chickens haven't developed any form of culture over the course of their species existence. Each one only lives a few weeks

>>13988210
I truly hope this happens

>>13988210

>Chicklet nuggies!

same shit different century

>>13988054
Burned alive probably.

>>13988210
Broilers can't survive in the wild unfortunately. They can barely walk.

>>13990419
Culture requires intelligence, and chickens are dumb as shit. Dumber than niggers even.

>>13989161
god you're fucking stupid, go inject lysol.

Eh, I grow my own chicken. Its cheap. Cheaper if you have some land for a chicken tractor.

so fragile because not selling to venues

>>13990795
imagine the smell

If you consume meat you are as morally degenerated as women who eats niggers dicks

>whaaaa whaaaa but I enjoy it!

>>13987999

>tfw live in DC and it's still impossible to find chicken at any grocery store

>>13990512
dumb boomer fuck

>>13990919
Its terrible. I cant wait till they go outside.

>>13988210
I'm ok with this.

>>13987999
I live next to a chicken processing plant and they were selling 10lb and 40lb bags of chicken breasts the other week, but they ran out started selling chicken tenders at $1/lb. Needless to say, I'm stocked up.

>>13988209
it means they won't pay more for people

>>13987999
it's actually because all the schools are closed and a bunch of restaurants

>>13988653
No place that still offers $7.50 minimum wage would have $1200 minimum rent. Theres apartments in NYC for less.

>>13990512
Farmers are overwhelming republican. Democrats are at least dealing with reality, as long as we farm the way we do we need illegals or at least low cost immigrant labor. Better to make a system that can at least tax them rather then let farmers do whatever the fuck they want

>>13988508
You will be crying because you can't get your eggs, cheesebreath.

>There is no justice in the world if true.
i have some bad news for you anon

>>13989969
the concern is not that the chickens might carry it, they aren't considered vectors for the disease

>>13987999
yeah. i don't have tons of storage, but i'd be crazy not to use what freezer space i do have for things like meat.

cloaka prolase?

But actually people got sued for giving food to homeless people b4 so never gonna happem

>>13989891
>just call it what it is.

what is it?
loss control?

>>13987999
they could just stop raising new ones and work on processing the old ones first?! i never understand just destroying product

>>13989969
This
>>13991359
But also it's a virus. It will not survive a cooking process. Ffs it can't survive sunlight

>>13988653
people arent driving but they are still eating, dumbass

>>13991448
Because they have to butcher them at 8-9 weeks. Cornish cross, the meat industry standard bird can grow so heavy there legs can break. They also get tougher and more flavorful as they get older which the american market hates.

The cycle time from hatching to butcher is so short this wont cause any issues. Cattle is the one you should worry about.

>>13991441
See this DFC? This is what a woman's chest should look like. Eat less you fatties.

>>13988517
Most carnists are only carnists out of poverty and low educational attainment

why haven't you moved those ducks outside? they look big enough

Not here lol, they'll probably get more expensive knowing this country.

The havent feathered out yet. Its very cold outside. Its going to snow tonight.

>>13987999
>What do you mean the mass consumption of dead flesh is a ludicrous barbarity, a festering vestigial outgrowth of a bygone era when meat consumption was a luxury, which industrialism has allowed teeming masses of petulant children to demand for themselves with all the force their feeble, fattened limbs can muster?
>What does it matter that we kill 7 gorillion sentient beings every year because we're too childish to see past the globalist mind fuckery that convinces us we're entitled to profit from deaths we're too chicken-shit to bring about directly?
Bring on the footage, hopefully some of you cowards will see what you're doing to our planet.

>>13988210

I wish that could be a solution. Problem is those fucking chickens are cesspools of disease and will spread it to other animals, who can then potentially spread it to humans in the future.

>>13988906

You know you don't HAVE to kill them, right?

Americans never look at big picture or for other solutions. They are so near-sighted. It's always, "WELL THEN THERE'S NO OTHER OPTION". There's no other option if you keep things under the same system. Just change the fucking system. This is your problem.

>>13991777
The problem is that most of these chickens are loaners. The farmers don't actually OWN the chickens. The big corps want to keep prices high in a similar way to OPEC so they'll cut off some supply.

>>13988209
>make at LEAST $600 a week on Unemployment at home on my ass
OR
>make minimum wage working a shitty dirty job and possible die of chink flu

hmm tough decision

>>13991325
We need cheap immigrant labor, but giving them a path to citizenship or giving their children birthright citizenship is fucking retarded. A modern Bracero program would solve this

>>13992341
The Bracero program was just window-dressing to make it nominally legal for farms to hire migrant workers for pennies like they always have.

>>13993124

>The Grapes of Wrath

"The decay spreads over the State, and the sweet smell is a great sorrow on the land. Men who can graft the trees and make the seed fertile and big can find no way to let the hungry people eat their produce. Men who have created new fruits in the world cannot create a system whereby their fruits may be eaten. And the failure hangs over the State like a great sorrow.

"The works of the roots of the vines, of the trees, must be destroyed to keep up the price, and this is the saddest, bitterest thing of all. Carloads of oranges dumped on the ground. The people came for miles to take the fruit, but this could not be. How would they buy oranges at twenty cents a dozen if they could drive out and pick them up? And met with hoses squirt kerosene on the oranges, and they are angry at the crime, angry at the people who have come to take the fruit. A million people hungry, needing the fruit- and kerosene sprayed over the golden mountains.

"And the smell of rot fills the country.

“The works of the roots of the vines, of the trees, must be destroyed to keep up the price, and this is the saddest, bitterest thing of all. Carloads of oranges dumped on the ground.

A million people hungry, needing the fruit- and kerosene sprayed over the golden mountains. And the smell of rot fills the country. Burn coffee for fuel in the ships. Burn corn to keep warm, it makes a hot fire. Dump potatoes in the rivers and place guards along the banks to keep the hungry people from fishing them out. Slaughter the pigs and bury them, and let the putrescence drip down into the earth.

There is a crime here that goes beyond denunciation. There is a sorrow here that weeping cannot symbolize. There is a failure here that topples all our success. The fertile earth, the straight tree rows, the sturdy trunks, and the ripe fruit. And children dying of pellagra must die because a profit cannot be taken from an orange. And coroners must fill in the certificate- died of malnutrition- because the food must rot, must be forced to rot. The people come with nets to fish for potatoes in the river, and the guards hold them back; they come in rattling cars to get the dumped oranges, but the kerosene is sprayed. And they stand still and watch the potatoes float by, listen to the screaming pigs being killed in a ditch and covered with quick-lime, watch the mountains of oranges slop down to a putrefying ooze; and in the eyes of the people there is the failure; and in the eyes of the hungry there is a growing wrath. In the souls of the people the grapes of wrath are filling and growing heavy, growing heavy for the vintage.”

Shit. I was too hasty.

I mean at least throw them into the ocean so marine life can benefit

>master race
>not able to compete with illiterate third world labor
Really makes you think!

>>13993228
My point is that the Bracero program didn't really do much. It was mostly PR that evaporated once the public noticed that it was bullshit.

>>13993456
>compete at being a slave goyim
or we could just invalidate that competition by cashing in on all the violence we saved up.

>>13988054
That's pretty standard wording in the industry. It avoids the word 'killed' and also specifies that they'll dispose of the bodies.

>>13988827
No, they'll be ground into a slurry and mixed with grain to feed the other chickens. Waste not want not.

>>13990795
>raises his own poultry
>chooses to battery farm
Jesus Christ.

>>13988653
They're getting rid of these chickens so they don't have a surplus to drive down prices. If it becomes cheaper they lose profits.

>have food shortages
>also have excess food that will be slaughtered and thrown in the trash

What did the government mean by this

>>13988209
Why would someone want to work at a slaughterhouse for illegal immigrant wages when they can make twice or three times as much on unemployment while day drinking and binging Netflix?

>>13994688
the poultry industry is the government?

>>13991325
maybe we should adjust the agricultural system so it doesn't require literal slaves. don't forget that family farm was killed deliberately so we could have the current arrangement

Gonna get more stuff after work tomorrow... but by then normies will start paying attention.

>>13988508
>people who meat exclusively eat meat
k

>>13988210
They have been selectively bred to sit around and convert feed to meat. Even traditional breeds - eg light Sussex supposed to be a pre Roman British bird still gets killed by foxes very easily, domesticated chickens are shit at predator avoidance.

just throw the chickens in the ocean so that the fish can eat good. plus you can build a bone raft afterwards

>>13994636
Its a brooder box. All the birds pictured are less than a month old. They arent going to live here.

>>13994997
I'm in awe, both in wonder and disgust. Don't those bastards quack all the time

>>13994997
They look so cute

>>13995045
Theyre are just starting to quack now. Its still just cheep, cheep all day right now. The smell is the worst part.

>>13995058
They start out even cuter.

>>13990795
Keep them safe.

>>13995229
The lake hawks and bald eagles around here dont go after anything as big as a duck. My biggest issue is foxes. Im buying some land in the next month or so as Ive done everything I can on this small plot.

I eat meat. I love meat.
But this. This is just infuriating. We should respect animals even when we eat them. We shouldn't waste it. We should use all of it. After all there was life there once. It was an animal before it was meat and we should respect it.

Whatever company is doing it should be hit hard, and i mean hard with penalties and fines. Such things shouldnt happen.
Its one of the reasone this world will not sustain itself.

>>13995534
I agree with the sentiment of respecting food (it was all alive at one point, meat or not) and avoiding wast, but the companies aren't to blame here. Blame the virus or the overreaction to it.

>>13988209
the meat processing industry has always done such a great job of hiring, training, retaining, and taking of the safety of its workers.

It won't happen because it would be too easy, and because Devil people run this world.

It's actually the absolutely best time of the year to give these birds a chance to survive and even thrive outside for awhile.
