This. This is the healthiest take.

The healthiest take is to eat the best quality food you can afford that isn't ultra processed.

Vegan food can be slop - see beyond meat, meat substitutes, lab grown meat etc. Heck, even South Park made an episode about it.

(I know you meant "the healthiest take in the vegan-nonvegan dichotomy", but I just couldn't help myself, tee hee)

Do I just not know how to talk or is it really a reading comprehension issue I'm running in to?

Just saw the last bit of your reply. It is reading comprehension... Mine. My mistake.

It's not about your health its primarily about the exploited group.

I mean healthiest in the "all or nothing thinking is bad" way.

I'm just saying, if your reasons for being against the holocaust is that burning the corpses contributed to greenhouse gas emissions, you are kind of a shitty person, but hey, whatever gets you there...?

"Perspectives" doesn't work when they are beings being harmed. When they are victims let people oppress isn't a good take.

Sure it does when we’re discussing the motivation for someone to choose eating less meat. If they are doing it for health reasons that’s no less valid than your reasons.
