I called this episode “Fraudiculture”, because I thought it interesting how the metaphors used to communicate the techniques seemed to target those with an understanding of agriculture, such as raising cows and pigs as endeavours performed with great care and even empathy, but an ultimate aim of exploitation.
I am not vegan, I just like to provide metaphorical options for those that prefer less violent phrasing.
