    chickens don’t give out free eggs, we take them from them by force and we don’t really ask.

    it as if slave-catcher catching people to sell them to slavery commented on the topic with “hey, free people!”

      Very astute observation. Chickens lost ownership of their means of production to capitalism long before humans lost owning their own tools of production.

        If you let chickens be in charge of their own eggs they will stop laying and try to raise their children.

          Yeah, i grew up on a small farm so i got to see it. Edit: Imagine what humans would do if we didn’t have to lay all our eggs for the oligarchs.
