Food, Inc. (2009)
A culture that just uses a pig as a pile of protoplasmic inanimate structure, to be manipulated by whatever creative design the human can foist on that critter, will probably view individuals within its community, and other cultures in the community of nations, with the same type of disdain and disrespect and controlling type mentalities.

Reasons to go vegetarian or stop supporting mass production of meat industries.
Pythagoras: "For as long as men massacre animals, they will kill each other. Indeed, those who sow the seed of murder and pain cannot reap joy and love."
Leo Tolstoy: "A human can be healthy without killing animals for food. Therefore, if he eats meat, he participates in taking animal life merely for the sake of his appetite. And to act so is immoral."
Cesar Chávez: "I became a vegetarian after realizing that animals feel afraid, cold, hungry, and unhappy like we do. ... It was my dog … who led me to question the right of humans to eat other sentient beings."
Leonardo da Vinci: "If you are as you have described yourself the king of the animals––it would be better for you to call yourself king of the beasts since you are the greatest of them all!—why do you not help them so that they may presently be able to give you their young in order to gratify your palate, for the sake of which you have tried to make yourself a tomb for all the animals?"
Morrissey: "I think animals look to humans for protection, and of course humans lead them into slaughterhouses, which to me is just like an image of leading children into a slaughterhouse. There's no difference."
