Ok but how are plants not being exploited? Also it could be said that you can get meat without exploiting animals, such as getting rid of invasive species. At a certain point it’s not a diet it’s an ideology, and I feel they should have separate names. Because let’s say you’re just against exploitation of living organisms, then you’d be fine with eating invasive species, or meat hunted yourself, but deny eating anything from a farm.

I’d say when it comes to veganism it’s basically up to what you personally want to eat. I personally have no moral quandary with eating animals but if you do, I wouldn’t call you a hypocrite for eating jellyfish. Plants feel pain too, in a similar way, I could see it being justified. Taxonomy shouldn’t decide your morality.

Seriously. I’ve been IP banned from reddit for a while, just because I made a vague comment on my main account while also having a burner that I just say my opinions on.

Probably the leftist echo chamber thing. You know, a place where people can’t just assume everyone agrees with their extreme political opinions, everyone hates Trump and loves Biden, everyone has no issue with homosexuality or trans kids or drag queens etc. You know.
