  And there it is, you practically just asked me to stop giving a shit about animal rights.

  For all practical purposes, I have. I’m not in the streets shouting or in government buildings appealing that my minority concern should be considered for influencing regulation.

  I’m on the internet talking about my support for it, and why vegans chastising insufficiently committed support for it has reduced support with it, with vegans chastising my insufficiently committed support for it.

    I don’t care what you do, I am talking about the hypocrisy in your statements.

    You did it again here, both saying you don’t give a shit but also are committed to supporting animal rights.

    You started this by blaming vegans for reducing interest in animal rights, surely a projection of how you feel onto society. Thats your excuse for not learning more about veganism or trying it out. You already know enough right?

    Go ahead and explain how you sending money to groups trying to convince slaughterhouses to use humane methods is helping?

    What does help is that veganism is simply about reducing harm, and that the diet tends to have benefits for personal health, environment, and for animals.

    But you can stick with your “if only we murdered them more politely things would be fine” line and see how much that helps.

      Nope, that’s literally just what has happened.

      Consider the fucking argument, consider how widely unpopular you are.

      Veganism will never be the global majority, you’re delusional to think you’re supporting animal rights if you are so vehemently against enforcing better conditions in captivity.

      …your excuse for not learning more about veganism or trying it…

      Fuck you.

        Keep it civil.

        Also you can’t see into the future so you cannot claim such things.

        Factory farms won’t get better until demand reduces.

        Got any great ideas to make factory farms more humane that won’t slow down production of meat? Is the demand going up or down over time?

        Of course the answer can’t be reducing meat consumption in general, right? Dont have to be vegan to eat less meat do you now?
