"Went vegan to own the libs"

No I've literally been poor and living in a food desert and was pointing out that rice and beans are in fact usually more accessible than eggs in such a place, as the other user rested much of their argument on a belief to the contrary. Please don't put words in my mouth, TY.

I'm just responding specifically to your argument that eggs are easier to find than beans and rice in food deserts.

You're gonna find beans, soy and rice in a food desert a lot easier than eggs. The food desert I've lived in had at least two of the three in almost every bodega.

US animal ag industry is battling cross-species avian flu right now in an attempt to delay it's jump to the human population. When one chicken or pig gets sick it means you need to kill and destroy every single one of them. Hundreds of thousands of chickens get deleted every time. Usually doesn't make the national news, and there are for sure political/economic factors at play too, but disease is absolutely influencing poultry prices.

I'm vegan and agree with your take here. We're all in the same big stupid boat together.

There usually are vegan vaccine variants if you're privledged enough to be able to access and demand them. It's usually far outside my level of acceptable practicality to do so though, so I get the default version.

OP wants to claim both compassion and nihilism.

Yes, this is the grim reality of the issue. We'll make animal ag even more inhumane and dangerous to humanity before we try moving to something more sustainable. Only catastrophe will force a switch.

Not so much fed with produce, but fed with alfalfa and soy feedstock grown on vast amounts of arable land that could and should be used to grow produce instead, for sure.

It is our business though, because when all those omnis come down with the latest zoonotic bird flu they endanger the entire population. And if the population did actually opt for tofu scrambles you just know that the industry would jack up the price of our cheap tofu.

Not to even mention, if you're vegan then factory farming is always your business, ideologically speaking.
