RE: Can We Truly Live Without Animal Products?

Veganism is definitely incredibly unhealthy in my opinion. We absolutely need animal products. There are certain vitamins that ONLY occur in animals that we need to source from such as B vitamins. Then there’s omega 3 oils that best come from fish and fish livers that are simply not as bioavailable in plants or nuts.
Not to mention that the notion of any food that a vegan eats being “free” of animals being killed is comical. The fields that farmers plow for soy beans - they poison the fuck out of the soil, till it with a tractor and that slaughters any ground animal, nesting bird, and insect that gets in the way without a second thought.
Then there’s the stuff in the soil such as worms or nematodes and things like that - these die as well and get incorporated into the food.
Sadly what I think it is more than anything is a religion - people who are vegan are some of the most opinionated and loud people about their views and it’s pretty annoying. I have a cousin who is obscene with it and she’s also incredibly unhealthy because her body is starving from not having any animal products and healthy fats.
If people want to do this - go ahead but approach it scientifically. Do the real research on it instead of just treating it like a religion and only seeing the surface level shit.
I can only agree with you. For my part I wouldn’t say I have a huge problem with it as long as it’s not hurting anyone.
But then the other face of it is that it’s hurting them and they refuse to accept it.
Eventually in the long run they treat it like some sort of religion or belief which they have to stay true to.
Btw most soybean on earth is grown for animal fodder
