The animals are treated badly and if by stopping eating meat I could stop it, I would, but the sad truth is that it's not that simple. I feel bad for the animals and despise the people who did this shit to them but if I don't buy them and they get thrown away, then they died for nothing

But this is untrue - if you did stop eating meat, you would stop some of the slaughter.
However small the industrial impact of one less meat-eater, there is nontheless some impact.
With enough impact, things eventually change. It is a long road, but it is as simple as that.
But just like people who complain about media manipulation yet still contribute to the viewing figures and newspaper sales, sometimes we just have to admit our hypocrisy and put these things to the back of our minds.
The tasty fruit/unwanted seed analogy might be significant here.
