2. There is nothing inherently wrong with killing (i.e., truncating the life of) an animal for food.
Neither of those actions is "cruelty". That's a false conflation. It is easily debunked by rational analysis.

These beasts are given a good life. Far better than almost any other animal on the planet.
From the day they're born, they're kept well-fed, protected, and cared for. They socialize with their herd. They're content. They're in their element.
One day, the beast is out on the field. It's a day like any other. The sun is shining. The breeze is blowing. The grass is good.
And it just ends.
Instant death. Instant loss of consciousness. Only unconscious spasms.
No stress. No pain.
The beast never even saw it coming. Nor could it understand.
Good life. Instant death. Just like that. And they provide nourishment for the creative and rational activities of human beings, the highest form of life on the planet.
It's a symbiotic relationship.

1. There is nothing inherently wrong with eating meat.
2. There is nothing inherently wrong with killing (i.e., truncating the life of) an animal for food.
Any other issues are distinct issues. They don't contradict these facts.
