Every once in a while I get that ominous feeling that killing and specially making animals suffer just for me to eat meat, fish and lactose is extremely wrong, but then I kinda forget.

I kinda see myself hunting wild game though so it's weird.

No true leftist is an omni.

Dairy is a cruelty product, eggs are a cruelty product, the factory farming industry employs immigrants in exploitative conditions often undocumented giving the farmers control over their lives. Indentured servitude, modern slavery.

Unless you're hunting deer for your meat, which is still cruel, you contribute to this system that is very easy to avoid with slight inconvenience.

(Unless you're living in some food desert and must eat animal products to continue living, in that case there's no choice.)

Go vegan comrades, do we have a vegan comm yet?

Vegetables are a cruelty product. They use animal compost, pesticides, and involve removing wildlands for farming. Our technological level does not allow for a fully vegan society without the deaths of many of our population.

This is the issue of individualism. You aren't changing a system nor are you advancing technological progress. I do think society will eventually be vegan out of pure efficiency, but that will only happen with technology.
