And he’s snuggling with pigs on pig farms. I think there are some people who would say that such actions are only possible on exploited pigs who are headed for the slaughterhouse, and therefore, because he has made himself part of the meat system, he wouldn’t be a vegan, either.

What on earth? That's like saying that activists who give water to pigs in slaughterhouse trucks aren't vegan because "they've made themselves part of the meat system."

You can snuggle pigs that aren't headed to the slaughterhouse, so in no way does such an action necessitate or expedite harm to animals.
