It's not hard to eat less meat and animal products. You don't have to be perfect. You don't have to go to zero overnight.
Some people are emotionally invested in meat, and I can't understand that. Especially if they just buy it at the supermarket.
Most people want to think they're good people, and anything that suggests otherwise will get an irrational, emotional, response back. It's annoying that you have to like coddle and massage people, but that's how people are.
What really gets me is when people think hunting is immoral but they eat supermarket meat. That cow that you're eating lived a short life of torture vs a deer that lived in the wild until it was processed into a full freezer of food. The only people who have a moral leg to stand on against hunters are vegans.
I'm vegan but I'm okay with Aboriginal animal agriculture because it's sustainable and it doesn't need human supremacist rhetoric to justify it.
