You have to eat, but you don’t have to eat meat. It’s just as optional as creating art that involves animal abuse. (Not a vegan, just interested in this topic).
Humans need nutrition and vitamins found in meat. Without them they get health issues or die. When lab grown meats are available, real meats become optional.
“with some effort”. Eating food humans are meant to eat in a balanced and healthy manner is already borderline impossible for everyone. Eating only vegetarian is more akin to a full time hobby than what food is to most people: fuel.
People don’t even give a shit about cars that they drive around and spend insane amount of money on each decade. I just don’t see most people just switching to vegetarianism without a survival need. Plant based foods are just stupid expensive to boot outside of rice and potatoes.
Yeah, it’s harder for sure. But what I’m saying is that not everyone needs to kill to eat-- if you can afford it and have some time to plan meals, it isn’t a “necessary evil”. I’d argue it’s still more moral to kill for food than for entertainment, of course.
fair point but killing for entertainment is pure evil. Killing cause you have to eat is neccesary evil.

We need things that can be found in meat. With some effort, you can obtain them from alternative sources.
Yes.

There are literally billions of vegetarians in the world who don’t have health issues.
There’s multiples more of omnivores who don’t have health issues either.
No, that’s a myth. There is actually no need for consuming animals. We owe the perpetuation of this myth by the meat industry
