Torture and Abuse

Torture

Torture, v, 1 Inflict severe pain or suffering on - Oxford Dictionaries via Google Objectively, in nearly all slaughterhouses, factory farms, and many smaller operations, there are many animals who experience severe suffering inflicted upon them by the animal agriculture industry. Therefore, by definition, paying for animal products where practicable alternatives exist is motivating literal torture against these animals.

Abuse

Abuse, n, 2 Cruel and violent treatment of a person or animal. - Oxford Dictionaries via Google Cruel, adj, 1 Willfully causing pain or suffering to others, or feeling no concern about it. - Oxford Dictionaries via Google Buying animal products motivates the animal agriculture industry to perpetrate violent treatment of animals, either willfully or feeling no concern about it. Therefore, by definition, paying for animal products where practicable alternatives exist is animal abuse.
