European Parliament flinches at factory farming reality

⚠️Our photo exhibit on industrial animal farming was censored!
📷The image of a pig being castrated - standard practice across Europe - was too much for a conservative MEP.
Thanks to @thisisbartosz.bsky.social & @maxgriera.bsky.social for exposing this absurdity!
