Nobody hates working together with leftists more than other leftists

In most cultures killing people is significantly worse than killing animals, so this comparison doesn't really make sense.
It makes sense from.a vegan's perspective because the whole reason we're vegan is that in our opinion, animals do have (morally) or should have (legally) the same rights to live and not be abused and exploited as humans do.
And again, the point of my comment is not criticizing your point but criticizing the way you do it by misrepresenting a few hardcore militant vegans as being the norm. Most vegans meanwhile applaud people who want to cut their consumption of animal products and offer them help.

I haven't seen left vs left. Only actual people on the left vs authoritarian douchenozzles that pretend to be on the left.

Can people please shut the fuck up about veganism for 5 seconds? Jesus christ, the dumbass infighting is why conservatives keep winning. Elon Musk and his nepo-baby "employees" are ransacking the federal government, ICE is rounding people up and trying to get neighbors to snitch on each other, several million people don't know how much longer they're going to be employed, and apparently we're about to build and then subsequently bankrupt casinos in Gaza, and leftists can't stop nitpicking over things that, yes, are important, but are the kind of thing we can slap fight over when the US isn't on fire. I swear to god, I'm gonna start smacking people upside the head.

How do you know someone eats meat?
They won't shut the fuck up about how mad at vegans they are.

I guess I should thank you for demonstrating how I'm twisting your words by doing the same?
"Is a woman’s unfertilized egg a baby?" <- That's a trap? Of course a woman's unfertilized is not a baby, nor is a fertilized one until born, since that would usually be defined as "embryo" (if being all pedantic). Though, a woman's unfertilized egg is an "animal product", as is a slice of meat.
Now, I've chosen to use "meat" as a synonym, or over-category, for "animal products". I realize that this generalization might be important for some, so let me apologize for this apparently vital oversight, I'll try to cut it out in cardboard from now on.
Regarding your statement about morals, as I've stated before, the hyperbole would be meaningless if the creator (of the hyperbole) wouldn't find any truth or parallel in it.
I've read your statement as "No vegan would ever say: You're eating meat, but that's all OK!", just a whole lot more demeaning and in perfect spirit of the original post.
And once again, to really cut it out and prevent these misunderstandings of mine, I read your statement as "Vegans will not morally lower themselves to omni standards".
If this was not the intention behind your words, then I will gladly stand corrected.

Aren't vegetables cheaper than meat?

Calorie for calorie, no.

Vegetables aren't the totality of my diet. As it stands now, vegan or vegetarian replacements for meat are more expensive than actual meat.

The replacemets yes. But vegetarian food is so much more than just replacing meats. It's cooking completely different meals that taste great without anything meat related. And that absolutely is cheaper that eating meat.

Sorry, I'm not in the market for a new faith.

I kind of agree, but it's funny how now we're blaming the republican victory on the vegans, of all people.

Vegans poisoned our water supply, burned our crops, and delivered a plague onto our houses!

A different worldview? In THIS economy??

Don't act like you know... youre views are vastly inferior to mine.

I'm not blaming it on vegans. I've been vegan for years. I think more people should try it. I'm blaming it on the fact that people can't shut up about stuff like what we're eating long enough to be effective. Right now, there are an awful lot more people than usual in my community seeking out food banks and I don't give a shit what they eat as long as they're fed. I'm running a food drive and I don't care if people bring beef stew all day.
And the people who see the word "vegan" and feel compelled to rush in to shit on the idea are equally at fault. Like, nobody asked you to come in to the conversation and start complaining about how annoying all vegans are. Or worse, posting about it out of nowhere. How is that productive?
How about people eat what they want and we can argue about the moral and environmental ramifications of those choices when we stop living in such interesting times.

There are valid reasons for veganism, but it's folderol to claim it's absolutely cheaper. For one example, sardines are fished sustainably and are very low in mercury, both because they're basically ocean mice. They're also all but impossible to nutritionally outperform for the price.

But they didn't slaughter our livestock. Gotta give 'em that.
