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 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.
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.
@@eriness 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.
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.
Well, it is all due to the fact. The Foundation generally lives up to its motto: Security, Contain, Protect. While this can vary depending on different writings, i.e. different universes. It is constant enough to be that...foundation. While, it is a surprise that even the most dangerous SPCs are left a live. Others are understandable for being still alive. Due to them being so hard to kill or nearly impossible to kill. And others killing them would be very bad for everyone. Then, there are some question why they are still a live.
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.
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..."
@@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.
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”
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
I've learnt not to watch more volgun as I'm trying to sleep since I either get really invested, terrified or both BUT this is a damn pleasure to have when eating breakfast I'll assure that
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
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!
Rather fitting to hear this now... my current home (Germany) was hit by a huge scandal at one of its biggest industrial slaughterhouses at the start of the pamdemic
i’ve been watching you for about five years now, and it’s amazing to see how your creative has changed since then! your voice has been a comfort as well, putting me to sleep. thank you so much!!
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”.
I discovered this channel last night, and I must have watched a couple dozen by now. The writing in this one is unmatched so far though, wow. Good work!
I just scarfed down 5 hard boiled eggs after forgetting to eat for a while. I feel like a fat, happy reptile. I am in perfect condition for story time and i now have a story!! Thank you!!
Dude I just got so freaked out like 24:25 ish, after he said “nothing but meat” it went black for a moment. Apparently UA-cam 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
I love these videos! I always listen when they come out. But I have to ask if you could do scp 469 the many winged angel? It's my favorite and almost nobody's actually heard of it. I'd be great ful if you could!!!
no way, i did not expect to hear the country whitch im from (Lithuania) in an scp story. its quite funny though because the name Antanas Rimas is just that...2 names, no last name at all...its like saying Bart John. And theres Tavas and Rytas... Tavas (not a name) translates to yours while Rytas (is a name) translates to morning. The name Elizabieta is just the name Elizabeth but translated to Lithuanian the same as Tomas is just lithuanian version of Thomas. Jelena Petrulis now thats certanly intresting Jelena is an old Lithuanian name that came from russia nothing noteworthy there, but Petrulis is a male last name, if shes unmarried it should be Petrulytė, but if shes married then it should be Petrulienė. Jaczemir is not a Lithuanian name, so it probably is any other immigrant guy in the story. Gytautas is a rare but very Lithuanian name.
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
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 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
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.

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 😮
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.

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.
Nice to see another Neutralized, the rarest class always feels the most grounded.
The SCP phenomenon is neutralized, yes, but SCP 7115-A (Klavigar Nadox) is pretty much still alive.
Well, it is all due to the fact. The Foundation generally lives up to its motto: Security, Contain, Protect. While this can vary depending on different writings, i.e. different universes. It is constant enough to be that...foundation. While, it is a surprise that even the most dangerous SPCs are left a live. Others are understandable for being still alive. Due to them being so hard to kill or nearly impossible to kill. And others killing them would be very bad for everyone. Then, there are some question why they are still a live.
"If it was easy to kill a powerful Necromancer, you didn't actually kill them."
"Neutralized?" Is not neutralized
It is not, in fact, nuetralized. The sarkist is still around 100 years later involved in various scp entries.
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?
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._*
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!

I was waiting for someone to say it. Thank you for reminding me of the horror
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.
This feels like something straight out of The Magnus Archives and I love it. The Flesh always deserved more love in the series!
I was waiting to see someone say this!
I was waiting to see someone say this!
I have to say this sounds like a way better ritual of the Flesh than good ol Meat in a Hole

I hope you didn't eat pork lol
Absolutely terrifying, loved it 10/10 as always lol
Jelena was an absolute badass, and didn't deserve to die in prison. Great skip, love a good Sarkic/Historical piece!
i swear scp articles are the perfect tesching format for me. i have years of scps i can pull right out of my cerebellum.
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!
I discovered this channel last night, and I must have watched a couple dozen by now.
The writing in this one is unmatched so far though, wow. Good work!

Superb writing, engaging reading. Jelena deserved a medal and a reward, not pneumonia in prison.
Good afternoon Volgun and everyone else
Nice one. An actual machine for pigs SCP
Anither great video! 😎 Keep up the great content
So this is why human dna keeps showing up in meat
An excellent reading, thank you for the video
Unionize, don't eat each other!
Tell that to the mysterious pig shaman☠️
What was happening to people plus the body horror was most disturbing... until the old man spoke the meaning of the American Way
I love these videos! I always listen when they come out. But I have to ask if you could do scp 469 the many winged angel? It's my favorite and almost nobody's actually heard of it. I'd be great ful if you could!!!
That's been one of my favorites too, I'd love to see it here.
"I have a bad feeling about this..."
Truly a machine for pigs.
Cool new intro keep up the presentations of different scps
Liked how you mentioned that book
Fell asleep to this one. Damn that dream was wild😮
The commentary on capitalism and a Sarkic connection is a nice touch :)
I like how sarkicism has a dualism in it.
Proto-sarkites tend to lean toward communism, while capitalism is the main concept for neo-sarkites.
Thanks for this.
This would make for one hell of a movie
The guy looked like Amir tataloo 8:26😂😂
Horrifying, I loved it.
Huh... The pig-people makes me think of Rats in the Walls.
That union is sounding better and better.
no way, i did not expect to hear the country whitch im from (Lithuania) in an scp story. its quite funny though because the name Antanas Rimas is just that...2 names, no last name at all...its like saying Bart John.

You can reply to the author, and if they reply, they can probably change it
Now all I can think is Homer Simpson going Mmmm Burger
Idk what universe this is in but it definitely doesn't feel like scp.... I miss the old days
Goddamn! Did someone find the original story that sparked the inspiration for the game ‘Darkwood’ ??? - “We are all just Meat..”
Love the Upton Sinclair references in this SCP.
Aeon learned the American Way and took it to a whole new level.
Why did I have to get to the horror part of this SCP literally as soon as I started eating :(
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
What a great article, really gave me the creeps

Addendum:[Redacted]
This would make an awesome movie.
I feel like the company could have been headed by Yubaba from the film Spirited Away
Loved it. But, I really miss the extra credit portion you've done a few times.
Dang this is good
Sounds a bit like a magnus archive episode, when the diary was read :D
Seeing a lot of comments about Magnus Archives but NOTHING about Hannibal. Disappointed in you all. Love the video Volgun ❤
This could make a fun DnD side quest enemy
Amazing
Damn this one is probably one related closely to Orok the Klavigar.
Very interesting 😊

When the crazed body horror cultist starts spitting facts:
Geez, what a grusome end for some. Crazy good one though!

Brilliant want more 😮
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.
Hayes's record feels very "Magnus Archives" to me, but in a great way.
Really great one6
Love love love neutralized SCP stories! They require a unique style of creativity and writing ability.
