As a butcher at a major supplier of beef to the food processing industry, I can assure you that that wasn't "beef" in your beef burrito. That was Billy. But, he was nicely marbled and looked rather tasty. I hope he hit the spot. Nothing would have made him happier.
I liked this one in particular. Even though it has some political undertones, it just serves the anomaly. Distrust of law enforcement just made it more difficult to get anything done at the time. The reason didn't matter, only the result.
There is true horror in the account of the plant and the work-ethics at the time. Workers cutting themselves, yet grit their teeth manly and go on working - all very commendable and patrotic behaviour. And having the consequence that all the consumers are eating human tissues and sometimes finds half a finger in their sausages. mmmm.
@WormholeJim Slaughterhouses in general are terrible, often taking advantage of illegal immigrants and uneducated people who can't get other jobs, forcing them to kill hundreds of living animals everyday. there's actually a kind of PTSD (called PITS) that's associated with it specifically.
@@ErinLynagh Completely agree. I mean, I like animals better alive than dead and in my food. It's less gross petting them that way. But that's just me. That just mean *I'm* not going to work in a slaughterhouse. Other people can do as they want. If that heans it's them doing all those horrible things to their fellow living beings, for horrible reasons though mainly because they can, then it's also their responsibility. So I just sit be happy that I can choose not to be a part of the wanton bloodbath, and hope those that like to eat meat will eventually come to their senses and realize what kind of consequences them doing that has on the planet and on the generel experience of being alive on it.
I swear to god the whiplash and circumstancial fear I am getting while listening to this while AS WE SPEAK I am reading the Jungle in class is exceptional. This story is going to last in my mind much longer than I originally thought.
Honestly I kinda wish I could find space/justification in my lesson to show this video/the article as an extension of talking about the Jungle in my class. it would be amazing, but i don't think I could really justify it. it's too long and it's a pretty difficult read for the 11th grade.
@@kazmark_gl8652 Well, depends on your class. If you are doing regular English, if you want to talk about the Jungle with students and the importance of the novel in its historical context, then this might be a nice bridge into it. You can talk about collaborative writing and the works that happen as a result of it like SCP, which are massive spanning and incredibly impressive. Idk, maybe it’s my own 11th grader brain speaking, but I would love love LOVE to have my instructor make the Jungle and SCP a part of the same lesson… although perhaps doing it as an extra credit deal could provide the incentive on the grade front. Either way, I think it’s an important read and it’s important to give some more challenging pieces for peeps if you think they are ready for it. Hope the teaching goes well teach. Ciao.
I think @jupiter_adept's suggestion is the best: that a link to this video or to the original text piece be shared with the teacher. You might be surprised by your teacher's reaction. Anyway, it can't hurt to ask.
There's some really fun Biblical stuff here too. The blood on the forehead is likely The Mark of Caine, along with the eyes replacing the holes where the stigmata (crucifixion nails) would be.
@@JanusKastin Neutralized, even if not confirmed KIA. It sounds like the kind of nasty "best we're gonna get" outcome that the foundation has to swallow all the time. Sadge.
always fun to see lithuanian names pronounced. you gave it your best, volgun! some fun fact regarding some names: neither tavas nor rytas are lithuanian names (tadas and rytis are conventional, though); they do, however, mean "yours" (loosely) and "morning" :). jelena is pronounced more like "yelena" - the j sound isn't anglicized. i'm always overjoyed to read characters of my own descent. really liked jelena, really grateful to the probably non-lithuanian author, lol. her last name 100% wouldn't have been petrulis, though, that's a male name - if her husband was tomas petrulis, she'd be jelena petrulienė. :) just for the fun of it. cheers!
Immigrants in the United States often had to adapt to the dominant culture, starting with their names. She could officially have the husband's surname, and the first names of the other characters could have been mangled in official documents too.
Oh wow this SCP actually made me tear up. Imagine being so tortured, worked to the actual bone, that you get caught up in this. Or worse imagine watching your child starve so slowly and painfully that you’re willing to feed them this cursed meat. What’s worse is that this is based on the actual conditions depicted in “The Jungle”
Neat, neat, it's American meat Drove my chevy to the levee but the levee was beat And good ol' boys were drinking whiskey and wheat Singin, "This'll be the day that I bleat, This'll be the day that I bleat..."
NGL, realizing this was about Chicago meat packing meant that, by the 1:30 mark, I was already more scared than I'be been of any reality altering universe destroyer.
That kind of subgroup of animal products SCP that makes you consider of checking any meat facilities or places that exist in order to avoid contamination by the strange meat-summonings cults.
I believe this is a particularly creepy aspect of horror when it makes you question aspects of your own life, I stopped buying meat from anything but local butchers a long time ago
Awesome! I believe Csolgos is a hungarian name, pronounced chol-gosh. Source: I know a bit about Hungarian. Not a critique, just something I thought about. Great job covering this one!
I’d love to hear you cover SCP 2117 (The Solidarity), since nobody seems to have done that one except as a mention. The only SCP 2117 readings on here seem to be from some other country, where it is “The Oxidizer”.
While sometimes i feel like people can jump the shark with their scps, every now and then we get some genuine gems in this setting. This is some pure eldritch shit with amazing pacing, metaphor, and theming that doesnt get bogged down in the detail and most importantly does not reveal too much of the monster. In a setting where too many wanna make the ump-teenth monster reality-bender that ends the universe in a new way, im glad for the writers who keep a small scope and really hone in their stories. Gotta be one of, if not my favorites right here
Lotta pig-based SCPs aren't there? Like we got this; the 'swine god', and that girl who endlessly dies and ressurects as a giant mutant pig creature just off the top of my head..
Dude I just got so freaked out like 24:25 ish, after he said “nothing but meat” it went black for a moment. Apparently RUclips thought it a good idea to put an ad there
I play your videos when I’m going to bed and I have played this 3 times but still do not know the premise of the SCP as I keep falling asleep (not an insult) I will continue to listen to it every night until I can remember it
Fun fact: the "worshiper" you refer to in this video is actually the best friend of Grand Karcist Ion himself, even the closest among the other 3, probably even the second in command
It's pretty neat for sure. The U.S. had *huge* labor movements and organization way back when. Times got comfortable and those movements mostly wilted, but the budding interest now will surely benefit from remaining aware of the historic outcomes/methods.
I was having a ham sandwich when I started this video, I stopped for a moment but it was too good to not eat so I'll let ya'll know if I start growing tusks
One of a few SCPs that is better off neutralized. But, the cruelty and harsh reality of life when it comes to working in any industry.... those who run the machines to feed the population, and those who are so broken that, more or less, give up their lives to be the food.... Perhaps the darkest reflection of the have nots and haves. Those who have it all, and those who don't. It chills me to think of this. These people worked to no end and still wound up hurt. It is a reminder of the consequences of treating your workers or your industry with disrespect or fecklessness..because what comes of it...you may not be prepared.
So this was the flesh cult that ritually carved symbols on workers heads that then used their magic to get an infinite pig factory made of the flesh of the workers? Is that what im understanding?
ah yes this seems like the perfect video to watch while i eat my beef burrito
At least it's not a pastor burrito 😅
As a butcher at a major supplier of beef to the food processing industry, I can assure you that that wasn't "beef" in your beef burrito. That was Billy. But, he was nicely marbled and looked rather tasty. I hope he hit the spot. Nothing would have made him happier.
😂😂😂😂😂
Chicken parm reporting in. What are we doing, I just started watching
Or after coming back from mcdonald's lol
Of course a Sarkist would hole up in a meat packing plant.
Where better a place for the Acolytes of Flesh than the pits of flesh themselves?
I love when SCPs weave historical and political themes into the supernatural. It adds another layer of horror and meaning
It's called world building.
Makes it seem like the world is more real.
I liked this one in particular. Even though it has some political undertones, it just serves the anomaly. Distrust of law enforcement just made it more difficult to get anything done at the time. The reason didn't matter, only the result.

Anyway, it can't hurt to ask.
I was just talking to my sister about The Jungle about the day before I listened to this. It made me do a double take 😮
Im so glad sarkicism is a part of the SCP universe as an excellent outlet for body horror like this
There's some really fun Biblical stuff here too. The blood on the forehead is likely The Mark of Caine, along with the eyes replacing the holes where the stigmata (crucifixion nails) would be.
I really miss when Dr Miller used to comment at the end of his lectures on what he just told.
Still happens sometimes, but it's more rare these days for sure. Miller's human moments are a treat to me too.
We are all just meat
Eating bacon while watching this video was not particularly pleasant, but I managed. Thanks for another great video! Always love Volgun content.
Wasn't there a machine made to identify meat and a journalist stuck his finger in and what it said was pork?
@@jacobfreeman5444 That is horrendous if true. Couldnt find anything on google but that could be bad key words; do you know where you found it?
Vegan seitan bacon has just as much protein and tastes better!

This one was really awesome. It felt like a pulp horror vibe which I'm all for lately. Thank you for covering it 😃
I agree. Specifically, it reminds me of modern pulp fiction with a modern overlay, like Victor LaValle's *_Ballad of Black Tom._*

American meat can never be fully beaten. We will always look for a way to Beat the meat.
Best I've heard this year❤. Was getting tired of the whole "interstate highway phenomenon" genre. 10/10 suspenseful and macabre.
Sarkicism is my absolute favorite aspect of the SCP foundation. This one makes me wish in memoria aditum was finished
LITHUANIA GOT MENTIONED HORRAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The quiet mumbling sounds in the background freak me the fuck out, this video is so well done.
Jelena was an absolute badass, and didn't deserve to die in prison. Great skip, love a good Sarkic/Historical piece!
Awesome!

Absolutely terrifying, loved it 10/10 as always lol
Daaaaamn, theVolgun hitting hard with a half an hour video. My evening entertainment is set!
Listening to this one and thinking how this would be a pretty amazing horror movie.
There are similar movies i think, the industrial process and the anonimous, faceless herds of mistreated workers are a great base for horror!
A new Volgun Video, and just in time for lunch! Perfect.
I hope you didn't eat pork lol
I find myself yearning for more videos I can’t get enough
Damn I don't know how long it's been like this, I usually just listen, but the intros are on point dude.

Awesome! I was just looking for a video on 7115 yesterday!
Ah, a rogue Sarkic worshiper of Grand Karsist Aeon. Bad news for everyone.
Great work as always TheVolgun.
Fun fact: the "worshiper" you refer to in this video is actually the best friend of Grand Karcist Ion himself, even the closest among the other 3, probably even the second in command
He is actually Klavigar Nadox
Timely given how labor rights and class consciousness are increasingly dominant in popular discourse here in the US
It's pretty neat for sure. The U.S. had *huge* labor movements and organization way back when. Times got comfortable and those movements mostly wilted, but the budding interest now will surely benefit from remaining aware of the historic outcomes/methods.
the way my jaw dropped when the sarkist ties and the American meat came up… this one is pretty scary
"I have a bad feeling about this..."
Tone and atmosphere, 10/10 :)
I have and will listen again and again!
I love this channel. It's what i listen to while doing household chores! Kinda wish i i could have it play thru my alexa tbh 😂
Hmm. Concerned by the fact that I'm now hungry.
My dumbass eating porkchops while listening to this.
So this is why human dna keeps showing up in meat
Unionize, don't eat each other!
Tell that to the mysterious pig shaman☠️
Good afternoon Volgun and everyone else
Now all I can think is Homer Simpson going Mmmm Burger
An excellent reading, thank you for the video
Hayes's record feels very "Magnus Archives" to me, but in a great way.
Truly a machine for pigs.
The Pigman, a good book for children.
Fell asleep to this one. Damn that dream was wild😮

What makes this worse is that the Sarkite....was right.
I feel like the Sarkites are not wrong more often than most would like to admit...
Anither great video! 😎 Keep up the great content
I'm a butcher in real life. This was fucking wild to listen to.

Seeing a lot of comments about Magnus Archives but NOTHING about Hannibal. Disappointed in you all. Love the video Volgun ❤

So some sarkic priest started being naughty. Got it.

Thank you for the video. Commenting for the Algorithm.
Amazing
First scp i've read about where the foundation didn't get involved
Sounds like Neo-Sarkite shenanigans to me…
Nah this one is Klavigar Nadox
Love the Upton Sinclair references in this SCP.
Present in class!
Let's hope this one STAYS Neutralized.
Loved it. But, I really miss the extra credit portion you've done a few times.
Thought that was Mike Ehrmantraut in the thumbnail
This could make a fun DnD side quest enemy
I don't care how it's made, I still want some boneless rib tips and sticky steamed white rice from that Chinese restaurant up the street....
Aeon learned the American Way and took it to a whole new level.
It was not Ion, it was one of his closest friend, Nadox
damn and still let her die in prison from pnemonia, after surviving an eldritch horror in chicago in the 1900s
Love love love neutralized SCP stories! They require a unique style of creativity and writing ability.
Wow scp still around?nostalgic
This starts out feeling like a Flesh Statement from The Magnus Archives.... Yeesh. Tom Haan, anyone?
Cool new intro keep up the presentations of different scps
Of course I had to be eating a pulled pork sandwich when I decided to watch this.
Idk what universe this is in but it definitely doesn't feel like scp.... I miss the old days
What a great article, really gave me the creeps
``Orbeez Tertius'' is kind of hilarious
The five stages of grief I experience when listening to scp articles being read
Attempted ritual of the Flesh
Not a bad story, though maybe borrowed a few too many ideas from A Machine for Pigs.
Glad to see The Vulkan is still kicking.
This would make an awesome movie.
In my head SCP-7115 A is a part of SCP-4036, as his powers are somewhat similar.
The Jungle has nothing on this one.
I feel like the fact sarkic SCPs can lull me to sleep should be concerning...
Just another day in the Amazon warehouse I see.
It's either a Sarkite or a Davite..
