    …it sounds like you are blaming vegans for factory farmers actions.

    You’re refusing to get this point right: I’m blaming vegans for public disinterest, which indirectly allows the factories to completely maximize profits by squeezing the animals they use.


    Its a waste of time in my opinion…

    I know you think that. You’re vegan.

    You don’t care about the pig in the pen any more than you care about the prey in the field. What bothers you is that there are carnivores on your block. A cow could be tortured and slaughtered at 5, or live comfortably in a large field and die of natural causes, it makes no difference to you. You’re bothered by the steak on the plate. That’s your fight.

      First of all, plenty of vegans are activists, doing the stuff you are talking about. They aren’t mutually exclusive.

      The problem is people wanting to be animal rights activists but giving no moral consideration to animals and doing absurdly hypocritical things like contributing to the system they stand in opposition of.

      Apparently you just want to be able to eat guilt free meat? Seems to be what you accomplish with your “framework” of being anti vegan, anti factory farm, but pro eating meat.
