    Because cows, no matter how much the vegans piss and moan, are not people. The only morally correct and principled stance that is totally throughgoingly consistent is to kill yourself or starve to death if you truly, sincerely believe that you have no right to cause harm to another being in order to survive. Plants scream chemical screams when you pick them. They share nutrients with their children. Asserting that plants are meaningfully different that animals is simply chauvinism.

        What is it that makes animals different from plants allowing you to eat one but not the other?

            How is that not feeling pain?

              because to feel something plants would need to have a central nervous system. There's no fundamental difference between animals and humans, we just feel superior for some reason. Plants are completely different

      I can't tell if this is ironic, but I unironically agree.
