it sidetracked from why I made the thread, but anyway
re: vegan wick silica but animal tested?
good point, I track down sources. Maybe I'll only use steel mesh.
re: china sweatshops.
Good point, I didn't know they still existed. It creates all types problems as if I should never buy a new computer, phone, refrigerator, or solar panels. Sweatshop or not, I'd likely be supporting someone's non-vegan diet. There's almost no way around not buying from China unless I move to a jungle village and buy nothing, but then I'd have to eat meat and might be killing myself if the medicine and nutrition are sub par. Sweatshops boils down to government controll and overpopulation. I can't end them, but I can help.
re: our teeth are meant to eat meat.
Vegans who say we aren't designed to eat meat because we can't hunt like predators, makes no sense because we could have thrown rocks/logs, scavenged, and riped and ground up meat with our hands before creating hunting and butchering tools. We could eat meat with no teeth. I think it's a pointless debate.
"I watched a robin today get torn to pieces and eaten by a Cooper's Hawk. It looked pretty painful, but since no human had a hand in it, I'm hoping it was a-okay with vegans everywhere. If not, let me know so I can clue the hawk in and he can move on to attacking tofu."
Carnivores are programmed by evolution because the only way to survive was eating other animals. Cavemen had to do it too. It stayed wired into culture and habbits that people should eat meat.People become cannibals when there's no food.Veganism suggests it's not needed, is probably healthier, and omits slaughtering.Veganism does people, animals, and I'm pretty sure the environment a favor.If such a process were ever created to alter the diet of all wildlife down to littel bugs, sure, I'd support a cruilty-free world. I can't think of anything now to acomplish that which might be possible in the future without sounding like a space cadet though. Species that suposidly can't survive on a vegan diet could be genetically altered and their jeans would live on.
I don't say kill every wild carnivore because they didn't ask to be born what they are plus over population of vegan animals might happen and they'd starve and kill eachother for food competition/eat eachother.
