all intellectual movements, ideas, and beliefs come from white western countries, by and large. stuff like technological advancements, human rights, most popular media, etc
theres LITERALLY ZERO animal right advocates in asia and africa. they just dont care. in terms of people making philosophical arguments as to why people should go vegan, its only western countries doing it
>our diet still requires animals
again, i dont DIRECTLY pay for animal products. theres no animal products in the food that i buy. if animal products were used to make the food i buy, theres already levels of removal there
and you can buy produce without animal manure, but its so hard to find or even know about, that its unreasonable to expect anyone to do so. overtime, with more and more people going vegan, there will be more pressure to find alternatives for animal manure, which do exist, and are available if you look hard enough and pay some ungodly amount of money for
like, how many levels of removal are you going to accept? if a farm worker uses equipment with leather in it, am i responsible for animal exploitation if i buy vegan food? do you really think thats reasonable? if we use that logical, unless you grow the food yourself its virtually impossible to buy any vegan food
if we take that to the extreme, so much as participating in civil society, or even capitalism, causes harm to others. like, by participating in capitalism and putting money into the economy, some sinister company will abuse the increased flowing capital for sinister gains, despite how many levels of removal are there between the money that you earned, and the company
your argument is just so unreasonable if taken to its logical conclusion. its just unreasonable
yeah but pigs and chickens are, and thats were swine flu and bird flu came from
