Another question is: if it’s moral, are you gonna do it for that reason?

I have no arguments against veganism. Vegans are right. Yet I am not a vegan.

This is the “fuck off, I like guns” of meat eating and pretty much the only argument I’m receptive to. I get frustrated when people argue they should be able to do things using bad arguments. But if you say, I don’t have a good argument for this but I’m gonna do it anyway, that’s at least being honest with yourself and I respect that a lot more.

What is not moral about eating meat? Is it about consuming life? If that is the case then I have bad news for vegans about plants.

People vary in their adherence to their own morals. Some change their morals more often than they change their actions.

I choose to be someone who puts my morals above my wants, at least as often as I can, and I try to learn all the time if there are other ways I am inadvertently going against my own morals.

Edit to add: I also used to agree with veganism and not take part, mainly out of fear it would be too hard and I'd fail or hurt myself. And then one day I just did it. I dont regret it one bit.
