It's not that i disagree, but can you elaborate on that?

Inflicting pain and suffering is bad, especially if done for selfish reasons, like pleasure (and tbh if someone were to disagree with that, I'd dont want to talk to them). Exploiting animals is exactly that, taste pleasure to be exact.

classic first worlder with their elevated standard of living:

  • Animal based protein is often cheaper and more easily accessible
  • herbivores as a middle step helps digest frankly indigestible plants

I am not disagreeing with you there is a fine line between acceptable and gluttonous, but acting holier than though, just cause you insistently chew grass and destroy your gut biome doesn't help the animals

Would you be happier with the moral baseline being "Whoever can go vegan, should"?
