There’s also this special subspecies like this one, that brags about eating food that didn’t come out of a box because to them it’s as daring and extreme as eating the brains out of a live monkey like in Indiana Jones. Congratulations on cooking and eating a whole chicken. The curious and bizarre habit that is only now being rediscovered.

What part of that post was bragging you actual autist
The whole point is that eating meat with bones in it IS normal, and the idea that white people won't is fucking retarded. If I was saying it was an abnormal activity I should be praised for, that'd completely go against the second sentence.

This one guy went undercover working at a slaughterhouse and wrote extensively about how all this compartmentalization happens there to make it less disturbing for the many workers involved in each little broken up step of the industrialized meat production process. It's pretty crazy, and shows that mental well being even among people charged with the killing of non-human animals is enough of an issue that businesses will go through these extreme lengths to obfuscate and break apart the task to allow it to be continued in large volumes without driving people insane.

>Timothy: The knocker is the worker who stands at the knocking box and shoots each individual animal in the head with a captive bolt steel gun. Of 121 distinct kill floor jobs that I map and describe in the book, only the knocker both sees the cattle while sentient and delivers the blow that is supposed to render them insensible. On an average day, this lone worker shoots 2,500 individual animals at a rate of one every twelve seconds.
>Avi: Who else is directly involved in killing each cow?
>Timothy: After the knocker shoots the cattle, they fall onto a conveyor belt where they are shackled and hoisted onto an overhead line. Hanging upside down by their hind legs, they travel through a series of ninety degree turns that take them out of the knocker's line of sight. There, a presticker and sticker sever the carotid arteries and jugular veins. The animals then bleed out as they travel further down the overhead chain to the tail ripper, who begins the process of removing their body parts and hides. Of over 800 workers on the kill floor, only four are directly involved in the killing of the cattle and less than 20 have a line of sight to the killing.
The way modern people are weirded out by reminders their food is actually the flesh of dead animals is an extension of this compartmentalization to the broader public.

I worked at Canada’s largest meat processing plant for half a year after high school. My regular shift was at night, but I did a lot of overtime “dropping heads” during day shifts. The cow killers were called knockers. They needed a psych evaluation before they took the position, 3 months in, and at the 6 month mark where they were permanently retired from knocking without exception. We went through 4500+ cattle a day 6 days a week. You are absolutely right that it is all broken up into little stages that are blocked off from one another, but this is as much for hygiene as it is any other reason. When I was a kid I wasn’t the nicest to animals. It was only when I became a teen and started field dressing deer and moose and elk that I grew a true appreciation for life. I take no joy in killing animals and would always hand my rifle to someone with me if they want to shoot, but when you skin and butcher an animal from start to finish you see the result of his life, and you get an appreciation for it. You learn things about the animals. Their scars, their muscles, every animal is unique. If anything, it is how impersonal they make it at the slaughterhouse that is troubling. They made it into a job that anyone can do, tho many still shouldn’t.

>at the 6 month mark where they were permanently retired from knocking without exception
Wow, why did they do that? Was it considered unhealthy to keep someone in a position entirely geared towards executing thousands of cows a week on an assembly line for any longer than 6 months?
>If anything, it is how impersonal they make it at the slaughterhouse that is troubling.
Yeah, I think that's the point. In trying to keep people sane by disconnecting them from mass industrialized violence businesses and states have created their own additional newer problems where the detachment from nature has made modern people no longer feel like they're living at all.
It's kind of similar to how industrialized farming is pushing things to the limit and rather than dealing with problems directly by easing up is just stacking bandaids on top of it all like mass antibiotic dosing to keep the livestock gaining weight and not dying prematurely. And downstream from that instead of dealing with underlying causes for human diseases of affluence increasing more and more in developed nations we just pile on pharmaceutical dosing to try to suppress the consequences after the fact of damage.

Cause they live so far removed from reality in their Ivory tower, that even the most natural things will start looking alien and disturbing to them.
White people have forgotten what fear looks like or what it takes to be able to eat well.
They just kinda trod along, get fatter and more diseased inside and out, while their bodies and minds slowly rot.
Collective insanity is just around the corner.
I say white people, but I mean first worlders really.

To be perfectly fucking fair, bay leaves are rather rigid when compared to just about any food they'd be put in for seasoning, so it's not impossible they'd only noticed it when they felt it in their mouth and pulled it out

The main point of compartmentalisation is related to business reasons. Its basic industrial factory theory. One worker doing only one particular job becomes super fast and efficient at it and the way the different stations are organized comes down to the fact that you have to make most of the square footage that you have. Its simply the cheapest and most profitable way, in no way is it done to protect worker's mental health. The hire and fire doctrine is literally just a way to get rid of costly psychological risks. If you let someone go after 6 months, the worker probably can not (legally) tie the employer to the mental damages that he sustained. The factory lawyers will always just say: Well, he only did it for 6 months, thats in line with Canadian law and therefore he cant sue us for medical bills etc.
