Edit: I fixed some formatting because this was linked from somewhere else. Also I'd like to apologize for my cringey tone in this.

I've been vegan my entire life, by vegan I mean no dairy or meat. sometimes I've accidentally had dairy but I've never once had meat.

I have many reasons, which I encourage anyone who feels they should to press on. I won't get offended and you might change my view :)

One reason is resources, the [feed conversion ratio](en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feed_conversion_ratio) for most meats we eat is fairly poor, and we'd have a lot more to eat at possibly lower price if that weren't used to feed animals lower on the food chain.

Morally, I don't think there's anything wrong with killing sentient animals(including humans) so long as it doesn't cause suffering before or after death, by after I mean to other life which may be affected.

But that's not the way things are done, Morals very rarely win over profits especially in a competing market and as such a lot of live stock are forced to live in really shitty conditions.

I wasted all my creativeness trying to get Open GL to work, so I won't add much more but please don't hesitate to try and change my view! :)

Also when I was skipping through some of the many responses to this, it seemed like some of you feel judged and I'd like to say I completely respect people who disagree with my opinion, and that I don't consider meat eaters murderers, just someone with a different opinion.
