I ask this in good faith, and I do not mean to bring about struggle sessions with this question (keep it civil, please :). I'm writing a sort of mini-essay on a certain topic (Edit: not anymore, I lost my writing appetite), and veganism fits into that topic (I'm keeping it vague because I'll probably post it here and I don't want to spoil the whole thing). If people are on the fence and others want to know more about what Veganism is and why they should consume in that way, I would be grateful if others more experienced and well-read on the subject could provide resources or counter-reasons. I feel like a lot of the things I believed before going vegan turned out to be misconceptions, and it doesn't hurt to be more educated on a subject, right?
Edit: I need to take a break from the internet again, if my brain wasn't fried already it is now (not anything any of you started, I brought this upon myself)
I kinda get you there. My concerns with the current state of animal agriculture is currently more the human cost. The run-off from CAFO's, the literal slave labor these industries employ, the mass destruction of land to grow corn to feed pigs that will largely just be slaughtered to raise prices on the stuff that actually gets sold. But like, the occasional deer hunter, fisher, Eid celebratory meal doesn't bother me so much.
