The co-founder of failed cryptocurrency exchange FTX pleaded not guilty to a seven count indictment charging him with wire fraud, securities fraud and money laundering.

An attorney for FTX co-founder Sam Bankman-Fried said in federal court Tuesday his client has to subsist on bread, water and peanut butter because the jail he’s in isn’t accommodating his vegan diet.

    Wait I’m legitimately confused about this.

    I agree with you in the first paragraph.

    I’m confused about what you mean by animals suffering because someone is in prison. Don’t they suffer regardless of if someone is in prison? Like, the animal would die and be eaten, regardless of where the meat is sent.

    I’m pro animal rights and all that btw, I just don’t get the connection you are making here.

      They’re saying that animals suffer because people eat them. That, therefore, all humans should be forced to a vegan diet.
