How do you verify what you eat isn’t “factory farmed”? Do you eat meat, eggs, dairy, etc. out at restaurants ever? Get store-bought foods created on a production line that have those products? If your barometer says “free range means not factory farmed”, then your barometer for this is likely extremely faulty.
A friend of mine has a farm and adopts the occasional “free-range” chicken (which just means there is some outside part accessible from the cage). They are so heavily bred that they kept falling over because their breasts were too large, so they wouldn’t move much.
This is always what I think about when I read free range. Basically a chicken too fat to move that can look outside an open window.
“Free-range” is still factory farmed and still represents unimaginable cruelty at unthinkable scales.
