The real problem with Chick-fil-A isn't their politics. The problem is that, given factory farming, eating chicken imposes more far more suffering on other sentient animals, pound for pound, than eating beef. (Chickens are much smaller than cows, & suffer more.)

Chickens farmed for meat aren't kept in battery cages, at least not in the West.

Cages can serve as protection. Free-range chickens have higher mortality rates. Pecking order is a real thing.http://www.econtalk.org/archives/2016/03/jayson_lusk_on.html …

Yes. I don't actually understand this obsession with "sentience." Every living thing is sentient to some extent. Every living thing has a survival instinct. Nothing wants to die. And yet, we animals eat each other. That's just the way it works.

I do. Chicken farming is a large amount of the work around me and I see chickens moved by the trailer-load to the slaughter house everyday on my way to work.

My moral intuition tells me that viewing this as some sort of an equation is the wrong way to do it. 0 \= -10 + 10.
