Dialogue: 0,0:00:14.40,0:00:21.22,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Anytime we make a living being into a machine,\Na supplier of inventory, the bottom line will
Dialogue: 0,0:00:21.22,0:00:27.62,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,always be profit. And increasing profit means\Nincreasing output and increasing efficiency.

Dialogue: 0,0:00:35.82,0:00:42.66,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Every aspect of their lives is regulated to ensure\Nmaximum output. From controlling their laying
Dialogue: 0,0:00:42.66,0:00:49.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,cycles with days and days of persistent light\Nfollowed by long periods of complete darkness,

Dialogue: 0,0:01:06.44,0:01:14.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,kind for eggs. Because of this, the egg industry\Nproduces millions if not a billion unwanted
Dialogue: 0,0:01:14.08,0:01:20.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,male baby chicks every year. Male layer chicks\Ncan’t lay eggs. So they are of no use.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:21.20,0:01:27.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,To “dispose of”—as they say—these\Nbaby chicks, they are either painfully gassed,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:27.00,0:01:32.59,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,slowly suffocated in plastic bags, or they\Nare ground up alive. We’re talking about

Dialogue: 0,0:01:52.80,0:01:58.31,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,cramped battery cages, unable to even extend\Ntheir wings. Of course nowadays we hear about
Dialogue: 0,0:01:58.31,0:02:04.59,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the rise of free-range and cage-free facilities.\NBut in truth, the only comfort these labels
Dialogue: 0,0:02:04.59,0:02:10.73,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,bring is to our own conscience. Cage-free\Nbirds are crammed into tiny sheds and have

Dialogue: 0,0:02:15.46,0:02:23.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I hope you are starting to see the power of\Nthis lie. Of presenting cruel confinement,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:23.11,0:02:28.87,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,starvation, abuse, the barbaric murder of\Nday-old babies and the slaughter of one-year-olds—themselves
Dialogue: 0,0:02:28.87,0:02:36.81,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,still children— as something completely\Nnormal and kind—packaged in perfect little orbs.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:38.38,0:02:45.30,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And we have the audacity to decorate them\Nin celebration of new life. To fawn over the
Dialogue: 0,0:02:45.30,0:02:50.73,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,very chicks who were ground up alive for their\Nproduction. To mix them into treats for our
Dialogue: 0,0:02:50.73,0:02:55.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,children and loved ones. To start our day\Nwith the products of abject misery and call
Dialogue: 0,0:02:55.72,0:03:02.36,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it “sunny side up.” We might as well start\Nour day by throwing chicks in a blender.

Dialogue: 0,0:03:19.93,0:03:26.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,processing and production to the end product.\NThat is to say, from the animals’ birth,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:26.72,0:03:32.94,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,through confinement, abuse, slaughter and\Ndenigration of corpses to the shiny, happy,
