I had that weird moment a few days ago learning that word is also used when you slaughter a (non human) animal:

"The chickens are harvest when they’re 32 days old"

Let’s sprout some semence in the cow (or not).

If that sounds weird, the term around here for butchering chickens is "dressing" them, as in, "We're going to dress chickens today."

The term for slaughtering pigs around here is 'turning them off' - all attempts to disconnect from the reality of what is happening.

Cognitive dissonance really is required to keep our “warm fuzzy empathic friendly” self image while simultaneously being ruthlessly pragmatic cold blooded killers when it suits us.
