Since that other thread was closed... I really wanted to write this comment so I'll do it here.
I'm not vegan but I really admire people who are out of principle and as a way to boycott animal cruelty practices in the food production industry and, in this world that we're living now, it's probably the just thing to do if we want to force these corporations to eliminate certain practices.
I however don't think killing another animal or eating animals is intrinsically evil. A lot of animals do it and we're animals too, after all.
So, to recap, in a fair world and/or for certain indigenous tribes/societies that are yet living in a more symbiotic way with nature in which hunting is part of their culture, humans should be fine killing and eating animals.
In this current late stage capitalistic world that is completely going to shit though.... Yeah, I agree with you, we should all be vegans.
And I have struggled with this a lot myself, I feel very hypocritical. The truth is that I would be happy to try for real once again. The problem is that my family doesn't want to and it's very difficult with my current life conditions to separate my whole diet from my family's. Or maybe I'm making excuses and should just make a bigger effort.
I'll subscribe to this OT and hope to learn more from this community.
People always say there's nothing more annoying than a vegan telling everyone what to do. I think that people complaining about and mocking vegans are the worst people and the most annoying though, fuck them.
