    Also what makes you think I can afford to purchase the vegan options at a regular grocery store if I magically teleported to one?

    the fact that the staples are generally cheaper than their violence-based counterparts

      Per pound, and per caloric mass; Tofu is nearly 3 times the cost of traditional cheap meats like chicken breasts where I am. I cannot justify that. Plus a lot of farms are subsidized so meats are purposefully kept cheap.

      Im happy you have the privilege of living in an area with those possibilities. But that is simply not the reality for the majority of people.

      Im sorry that I have to choose between my own death, and eating “violence based counterparts”.

        I haven’t eaten tofu in years. I’m talking about rice, beans. You know, the shit that people way poorer than you have to live on.
