Abstract
<p>Whilst animals suffer abuse meted out within the confines of industries, industry campaigns deliver glossy, cheerful, and emotionless messages about their utilisation of animals. Such a delivery serves to professionalize industry operations, which in turn provides patrons with customised defence mechanisms if reproached by critics such as animal rights advocates. This phenomenon remains consistent for the meat industry, animal experimentation industry, and animal entertainment industry. Within this context, ideology and propaganda foundational to animal industries suggest an exaggerated degree of unconcern for the experiences of industry animals. Findings indicate that most ideological and propagandist elements fall within the parameters of the thesis definition of human beings’ intentional violations against animals.</p>
