ok? that doesn’t change the effectiveness of being vegan.

they stop producing meat.

meat production increases every year

i’m saying i know how linear time works, so i know that buying meat on a shelf can’t have caused the animal it came from to be killed.

there is not any way to prove such a claim, as you cannot prove a counterfactual.

the person doing the killing is usually paid by someone but most people are neither killing nor paying the killers. they are both paid long before someone walks into a grocery store.

It reduces demand for meat, lowering production

production increases every year.

being vegan doesn’t do anything about those

I didn’t say anything about a medical condition

And paying someone to kill someone/something for you is still killing.

most people don’t do that, either

no, they’re not

you don’t know what they need. and I seriously doubt they are killing for entertainment. I doubt they kill anything at all.

i’m not the one whining about the user base

you can leave literally any time. there are dozens of instances, you don’t need to stay on flagship instances. you might like truth.social, which runs mastodon’s software, or gab.com which does the same.
