Like engagement with war zone footage I agree that for many the imsgery is too much to handle.. with sadly people looking away rather than leaning in to push for change.

I think there’s an interesting analogy in the campus Palestine encampments, which were well covered in the news. Some commentators highlighted that the abstention of college students in tents running around and clashing made it easier to engage with as it was more palatable and familiar than the real war content for which the encampments were related to.

How else could the topic be made easier to engage with?

There’s no “easy way” to talk about any topic that is part of the upbringing of 99% of the population, people don’t want to have their blindfold removed just to see what they’ve part of and have to take action. Most people know about factory farming just want to forget about it for the next trip to the grocery store.
