Protein is not an issue.

Iron is, and can be found in shit like tofu and beans.

Like if what you wanted was a republican, you'd just vote republican.

Also I already said that without an organised boycotting effort no change can be done.

Yeah the fact that its a boycot is the problem. Its liberal individualist thinking.

You aren't doing the ingame tutorial are you? Because it sucks.

Going vegan is a boycott lmao

If I were to go vegan I'd be the only one.

Same argument as before "I'm one person I can't make a difference" - 1 billion people not making a difference.

Your argument is literally "1 billion people won't go vegan overnight, so why should I?"

"I'm just one person so I won't make difference" - 1 billion people who could be making a difference.

People do have that option though. It's not cars vs non-existent rail transport. It's meat vs beans.

If everyone stopped eating meat, cows wouldn't be farmed for meat.

The fact that now supermarkets have entire vegan sections or vegan variants of non-vegan products is proof of a deman for vegan products. People that could be spending money of meat, are spending on vegan alternatives instead.

I don't get it either. It's probably something like with bronies or just fandoms in general. They see a thing they like and have fun with creating and sharing OCs and stuff.

The argument doesn't make sense because it treats the situation like it's in a vacuum: there's a dead cow, might as well eat it.

This ignores reality. That cow was slaughtered to meet the demand for meat. By choosing to purchase meat you are responsible for that demand and so farmers will continue breeding cows for slaughter.

Less people buying meat = less cows being bred and slaughtered.
