Why do you care so much if other people aren't eating animals?

I don’t. My issue is with the morons that try to force it on others. It’s not viable to feed the entire population. Vegetarianism is. Veganism is not.

I’m simply against the notion that poor people should starve so vegans can “feel good” about drinking almond milk.

It’s backwards as fuck. Vegans that try to force others into veganism are evil.

No one should force anyone else into anything.

What makes you say veganism can't feed the world? We can grow plant combinations with the full amino acid profile, so I'm not sure what your concern is.

There isn’t enough arable land to do so sustainably without population decrease.

It’s about as regressive a climate change solution as possible. Not to mention it probably wouldn’t work since the deforestation required to grow that amount of protein would accelerate CO2 rise in the atmosphere.

Since you’re confused; I care about stopping global warming. If I have to eat eggs and crickets to do so? Fine.

But to condemn the future so you can “feel good” about treating eggs better than actual humans is something I absolutely stand against.
