I think your post is silly, but as long as you can handle the fact that I disagree and can coexist, then it's fine.
If you want my definition of a redditor, this post explains it in detail using Dostoyevskys notes from the underground as an anchor.

The mass slavery and killing of animals our society engages in is founded on ideas of biological genetic supremacy. I submit that meat eating is fascist and our society actively promotes fascism as part of daily life.
Don’t mind me, I’m just testing the waters to see if I’m one of the “redditors” y’all have a problem with.

Oh, well if you like the idea of people disagreeing peacefully, you might be interested in soulism. Soulists believe consensus reality is a prison, and people should be free to construct their own subjective worlds without being forced to agree with others on what the world is like, on what reality is. We recognise that consensus reality is an unjust hierarchy that enacts violence on people for being unable or unwilling to agree. Its very origins are based in supremacy and oppression

Is soulism related to anti-natalism? I have a friend who’s into that, and believes that it’s immoral to bring people into this world of pain and suffering without a choice.

No, soulism doesn’t have anything to do with antinatalism

Not really interested in finding any ideology where "we" believe things, because I'm trying to understand objective reality and subjective truth and anything "we" believe might end up having to kill my own sacred cows (and honestly in some cases I have had to).

There’s no such thing as objective reality

Since you may be knowledgeable on the subject, do you know how to avoid deficiencies on a vegan diet? I’ve seen some omnivore writing that suggests vegans naturally become deficient in a bunch of things that are in small quantities in plant-based foods. Some saints have been vegans it seems basically so I am kind of ok with people being vegan, but it seems to reduce people’s health and energy otherwise if not done for some kind of spiritual reason. I have tried more vegetarian / vegan diets and the most I feel ok with is pescetarian, which it sounds like you would still ethically object to.
Are you ok with dairy and eggs consumption? I could possibly survive on that, but I can still feel it seems to throw me off. Does the death of animals in the pursuit of vegan foods bother you? Have you considered eating bugs (entomophagy) as a seemingly “more ethical” alternative that might give nutrients not in plant-based foods?

Vitamin B12 supplements are available at most pharmacies and grocery stores. That’s the only thing you really have to worry about with being vegan. Protein can be a worry if you’re not paying any attention at all to your diet, but just eat some beans and it’s all good. Or tofu. I like tofu better than beans, but I appear to be in a minority.
I’m not a fan of enslaving anything with a nervous system. Bugs might be more ethical to eat than cows, but they might not be. I wouldn’t play russian roulette with someone else’s head, so why would I take a risk like that?
No, I don’t like dairy or eggs. Egg laying chickens are kept in conditions so cramped, they’d peck each other to death from the stress if they didn’t get their beaks amputated. I have less of a problem with farm raised eggs. Now the modern domesticated chicken is a crime against nature, bred to produce eggs at a size and speed inconsistent with health and happiness, so it’s not like I have no problems with farm raised eggs, but I have less.
As for milk, well continuous milking of cows is bad for udder health, so most farmers let the cow rest for two months of the year to ensure good health and steady milk production over her lifetime. Unfortunately two months without milking leads the cow’s body to conclude it’s no longer nursing young, and milk production slows or stops. The farmers’ common solution to this problem is to keep cows in a more or less constant state of pregnancy, giving birth every year and then being separated from their young so the milk can be taken by humans instead of nature’s intended recipient. And a male dairy cow is useless except as a stud, so nearly all of the males born this way are killed at one week old. So out of the gallon of milk you buy at the grocery store, 50% of that milk took a dead child to make.
