Non-vegans should support vegans, even if they continue to eat meat, because vegans drive better treatment of animals and also drive more attractive non-animal food options. However, a person must have a brain and also not have meat eating tied to their masculinity.

Yeah, you can’t say the conditions we’re subjecting livestock to is “good”. You don’t give up your rights to eat bbq if you admit it.

Non-vegans should support vegans What really drives me mad is that there’s a dead simple solution - lab-grown meat - that can obviously be the best of both worlds with a bit more development (and in fact is being commercialized already), but is being lobbied against by the meat industry precisely because it’ll be cheaper and better. And nobody seems to be talking about it.

My meat eating isn’t even close to being tied to my masculinity. I hardly even care how myself and others perceive my masculinity. My meat eating is nearly entirely tied to my enjoyment of the taste of meat.

Lower demand for animal products lowers prices for others.
