This thread is very difficult to read. The subject matter is one of the reasons I am reclusive.
What to do . . . or not do, about such things?
I am not advanced enough to stand by and do nothing. I frankly don't care a bit about humans and their ignorance. The thoughtless pain and suffering humans cause on a regular basis is appalling. I am not talking about subtle emotions or the kinds of pain caused from a person's own unresolved pain. I am referring to the content of this thread: causing direct pain and suffering to innocent creatures, as you put it yourself xise.
My heart goes out to you and your untenable position. I have been in such positions all my life. I can tell you this: If you stand up for what you believe, you may not change a thing at all right now. But I promise you, it will make a difference. I know, because I have seen how my family and friends--even clients I have had (I was a very successful food illustrator and at one point told my clients I was not going to illustrate meat any more), come to understand and respect my views and heartfelt ideas. Sometimes it takes years, decades; but they know in their hearts what you are trying to make them see is true. They know what kind of person you are. They may not be ready to make the changes yet, themselves. But you will plant seeds by speaking your truth. I can assure you, this is true. And the animals will also be grateful. I know this because a few have come to me in dreams to thank me.
So speak your truth, as authentically and kindly as you can, but let your heart be open so the passion comes through and it will touch your family's hearts. Don't expect change . . . as that can't be controlled. And help or save what animals you can on your family's property without pointing the finger in the most proactive way you can.
Someone in this thread said the animals chose this. I have a hard time believing this when they aren't even individuated yet (perhaps there is some "herd-like" choice when incarnating into 2D from 1D). But individuated humans do choose, so the issues of the cook and driver take a back seat for me over the taking of life--cruelly--of innocent animals, who, by the way, are part of the property "trust." All things within the property are under the care of the landowner.
