It’s absolutely bizarre to me how people treat eating meat like a religion and you not participating is somehow an insult to them. People are truly fucked up.
Hahaha your first day on the internet? It's literally full of whiny carnists who are so loud about their "freedom" and "manliness" and shit.
Because this raises the demand for produce, increasing the price of produce, but not so much to cause a supply shift in the amount of produce produced, so the price point raises to meet market demand, thus making my produce more expensive ultimately meaning that my business products are able to produce less produce per product that I produce.
That's wrong. Just plain wrong facts. Meat is subsidized. That's why it's cheap. And it takes 10-20 times the produce to raise and animal that you kill, compared to just eating the produce.
I think there's been a misunderstanding where you confused produce for produce and thought I meant produce when I actually was referring to produce. I produce products to procure produce, not for the sole purpose of producing a product - that wouldn't be productive.
1 billion people are employed in animal agriculture so there is an conflict of interest going on.
They wouldn't, though. Meat is a method of refining vast quantities of cheap, safe, largely sustainable plant products into a small amount of expensive, harmful and unsustainable luxury goods. If we stopped producing meat, not only would ranchers and slaughterhouse workers be out of work, but so would the majority of the plant producers. Most of the food we grow is fed to livestock. We would only be able to use a fraction of that plant production in a post-meat world, unless we started exploiting new industrial uses for plants or something.
