People love to call veganism ‘privileged,’ while conveniently ignoring the fact that the only reason animal products are even close to being accessible for the average consumer is because they’re factory farmed, slaughtered and packed by grossly underpaid labourers working in dangerous conditions, and then massively subsidised by all of our taxes.
I’m all for veganism, but that exact same criticism can be made of fruit. No way any of us could afford strawberries or blueberries etc without exploitation of migrant workers and subsidized water.
So meat eaters and strawberry eaters are privileged? I am unsure of your point here?
It is true that not eating strawberries and not eating meat are both accessible outside the global north or w/e.
