So, your "ethical" response to other few that may attack your personal choices is to attack many others for their personal choices?
I love & eat tofu…
I engage in truly sustainable, ethical and regenerative farming (which requires more than just recycled animal manure, especially given the fact that most processed farm animal feeds contain synthetic antibiotics, which are broad spectrum in nature, and which continue to kill massive numbers of even "beneficial" microbes long after being expelled from the animal, i.e. in their manure, resulting in extensive environmental damage)….
AND I NEVER CRITICIZE CARNIVORES FOR THEIR OWN PERSONAL CHOICES.
LIFE IS ABOUT BALANCE.
TOO MUCH OF ANY ONE THING IS ALMOST ALWAYS DANGEROUS.
FACT:
THE WORLD NOW PRODUCES OVER 3 TIMES THE AMOUNT OF MEAT IT PRODUCED JUST 50 YEARS AGO.
AGAINST A POPULATION THAT HAS DOUBLED (2X).
THUS THERE IS AN INCREASING IMBALANCE.
AND MORE DIVERGENCE FROM THE "NORM"/CONFORMITY ISN'T NECESSARILY A CALL FOR ABSOLUTE ABOLITION NOR CHANGE FROM CARNIVOROUS DIETS.
YOU, JOHN LEWIS-STEMPEL, ARE AS DANGEROUS AS THOSE YOU CRITICIZE.
YOU ARE AS BIG A HYPOCRITE AS ARE THEY.
YOUR SUPPORT FOR THE LARGEST MEGA-CORPORATIONS, AND THE BIG ASSET MANAGEMENT FIRMS THAT OWN THEM (like JP Morgan, Fidelity, Dimensional Fund, et al), VIA YOUR WORK & SUPPORT FOR REACH PLC, VIA YOUR WORK FOR THE DAILY EXPRESS, SHOULD BE ONE OF YOUR MAIN CONCERNS.
JUDGE THYSELF FIRST, MUTHAFUCKA!
YOU PROCLAIM BELIEF IN & ADHERENCE TO "sustainable, ethical, regenerative farming systems" AND YET YOUR SUPPORT FOR THOSE MEGA-CORPS THAT WORK TO DESTROY TRULY "sustainable, ethical, regenerative farming systems" IS TESTAMENT TO YOUR OWN MASSIVE IGNORANCE & FAILURES.
