ignorant vegan:

raping animals is wrong

you, an intellectual:

but animals do it! We'd have to kill all animals that do it, that'd be insane

enlightened ve-gone:

you're right, let's rape billions of animals

Humans are not animals just like any other. We have the capacity for self-reflection and change. We are also not obligate carnivores - we have the choice to eat plant-only diets without health risks unlike a lot of animals

suggesting that animals eating other animals is bad does not imply that killing all carnivores is the correct solution to that problem. there is no solution to that problem which would save the lives of every animal alive today, so any solution to this problem must include the death of some animals. "continue letting animals eat other animals until we can find a real solution that won't destroy the biosphere or genocide billions of living creatures" is a valid solution even under the strict idea that killing animals to eat them is always wrong

This looks more like you’re just wounded ego than it is about tone policing now.

You’re actually more annoying than any vegan I’ve met. Please get off our capitalism argument. You’re making it look bad too.

Nor is vegan eating consequence free for life. Factory farming, much like factory meat in some ways, obliterates vast amounts and variety of life that previously resided in that given field. It is also contributing to rapid worldwide top soil decline, something no one seems to give a shit about. Ecological cattle raising could be a mitigation to both issues but some people have too much soy clogging up the brain to do their own thinking.
