I don’t think you know what punching down means

I dont think most people on this thread do. Who here is of higher rank or social status or superior? I dont think anyone does, they just want to grandstand in the comments.
Seems the person that posted who is vegan thinks they are. Seems the people making all sorts of comments are also defending themselves or think they are superior.
It’s always been funny to watch this. Who gives a fuck what you eat and why, its a personal choice not a morally superior quasi-religious issue.

What you eat is a personal choice from what’s available to you. Some people can’t afford organic vegetables and can only get protein from animal sources because they subsistence farm. Some people live in industrialized societies and have the time and resources to make most of their own food from scratch and not eat anything from animals (that’s me).
Grandstanding about it on the internet or thinking one way or another is superior abstracts this to philosophy and outside of reality. Ultimately its a choice and moralizing it or talking about hypotheticals or judging others character based on your own beliefs is ridiculous. Some people think meat is murder, some people hunt species that are over populated because humans have killed all the predators, there’s always a counter point to every part of the discussion.
You have Jains in India causing public health crises feeding pigeons and causing disease to spread, and you have people eating meat contaminated with shit giving them e coli from factory farms. There’s people that hunt and respect the animals they kill to feed their families, and people that grow their own food in their backyard because they have time and property.
It’s all relative, it’s all a personal nuanced choice. Ive heard the same moralistic arguments ad nauseum, there’s no one way to live and no one way to eat in this current world.
