More like ignoring all of my points while being so smug it’s palpable through my screen. I imagine you’re just as insufferable I’m real life.

But sure, pretend like some people not eating meat will automatically make wide systemic changes to industrial meat production. Keep sucking your own dick while ignoring that there’s an even larger issue at play here that goes outside of 'just don’t eat meat".

Feel free to waft your own farts while I ask about affordable alternatives to meat in countries where it is heavily subsidized. Saying 'potatoes, beans, rice" doesn’t answer that question because it doesn’t account for the protein deficiencies without the knowledge to supplement that into a person’s diet. Something the average person does not know and is not educated on. Nor does it make up for the cost difference in said dishes.m at least in the country I’m from. Things like vegetables tend to cost more for less when compared calorically to meat. And there are a lot of places where you could get a pound of meat for $3 where I’m from.

And what was that you asked about what “lobbying body, governing group” parented me on how to eat meat? The US education department. You want to say it gave me a shitty education, get in line. You can act like a smug asshole all you want, but don’t pretend like you’ve addressed anything here.

It’s like I’m taking to a toddler that doesn’t know anything besides “nuh-uh”. You are the very reason no one listens when people try to start talking about eating less meat.

Are we going to ignore things like the massive meat subsidies and the way that eating meat is actively encouraged? There are people that can’t afford a high caloric alternative outside of meat. Or what about the fact that most in the west were raised on heavy meat diets and don’t know how to swap at the switch of a hat?

To act like there are no outside influences when it comes to eating meat is utterly ignorant. Of course the meat industry has to be massively overhauled. But maybe blame the people/industry that have been actively perpetuating it rather than those that just figured out there needs to be a change.
