“is veganism a virtue”

sounds like a topic for a debate

like, it certaily is on paper, from a moral standpoint of causing less harm to the environmant

but “the environmant” is a really vague term. After all, by not allowing John Flesheater have his steak, you’re still technically harming an animal, just morally this time :D (and possibly in terms of health a bit, if there are some kind of external dietary limitations in a given local region)

Another problem is that farm animals don’t talk much about their feelings, ro we can’t really know if we’re actually harming them, thus we can’t say whether we’re helping them by stopping the process.

But that raises another question: “how one would know if they’re happy, if they never experienced happiness?”

I think veganism is a vanity that we can afford given the right circumstances, that some cultures also try to dress up as a virtue. So if one derives joy or piece of mind from it, they shoule do it as long as they do.

oof sorry, not coming drunk to lemmy again :D
