FYI, the user you’re arguing with is a <1d account that has only posted in this thread. I appreciate the effort you’re putting in, for those of us who have a very limited palette of what their body will tolerate. But don’t wear yourself out on an ableist troll.

Meats and cheese are like 10 things. There are thousands of edible plants and fungi to choose from. In the overwhelming majority of cases, this sort of argument is just a lazy rationalization so people can avoid grappling with the consequences of their actions.

It is similarly not ableist to condemn kidnapping people to forcibly harvest their organs for transplants.

They don't necessarily need to be trolling. I completely understand the passion and don't exactly disagree with them. Most people aren't consuming meat as a necessary evil; they're often consuming it in excess because it's enjoyable, even when they already understand the horrors of factory farming. It's upsetting and frustrating and I just want to do what I think is most likely to improve the situation.
