I am guilty of manipulating and managing my bees so they produce an excess of
pollen and honey that they normally wouldn't produce. I am also guilty of
increasing the dwindling bee population ,by "capturing "swarms and splitting
hives,that is needed to pollinate many trees and plants to assure their
survival.
In exchange they are cared for in a way that prevents them from dying or
being "murdered" by mites, skunks, and other natural diseases.
  If this is what the vegans  refer to as "oppression" than I am guilty as
charged-and enjoying it.
