Most noteworthy for me is the fact that more Americans think that porn (52%) and homosexuality (39%) are wrong than spanking children (23%) and being ultra wealthy (18%).

Plenty of people don’t eat any meat and live just fine?

And why does it matter if a person does? Food availability and nutrition has so many variables. Including financial capabilities.

It matters if you consider the suffering of non-human animals important.

You still need to eat. Plants have feelings too. At this point it's being trotted out as elite shaming rather than logic.

I don't shame people for doing their own thing. But morality here is subjective.

Why? I think factory farming is far worse than the holocaust.
