They’re not euphemisms, I just don’t need to be graphic for shock value like you fuckin PETA nutjobs.

I mean, to be honest your explanation did seem deliberately obfuscatory of the actual process. I guess it's so graphic and shocking that you feel inclined to use the word "indulged" to mean 'removed from mother immediately and then forcibly impregnated to continue the cycle of graphic and shocking practices'.

Can you accurately describe it in a way that's not graphic and shocking without leaving major steps out?

If you want to do that then do that, but I’m not your puppet, you weirdo. I’ve made meals out of hundreds of animals, from shell to slaughter.

euphemism

yoo͞′fə-mĭz″əm

noun

  1. A mild, indirect, or vague term for one that is considered harsh, blunt, or offensive.

  2. The use of such terms.

  3. In rhetoric, the use of a mild, delicate, or indirect word or expression in place of a plainer and more accurate one, which by reason of its meaning or its associations or suggestions might be offensive, unpleasant, or embarrassing.

Seems pretty damn accurate to me.

You’re wasting your time. If you wanna write up factory farms, go for it. I’m not your bitch, random redditor. Aside from the fact they they asked What, not How. Fuck off with your merriam Webster bullshit.
