'''Veganism''' is the following of a diet in which refrains from consuming any [[animal]] products, including [[meat]], [[seafood]], [[poultry]], [[eggs]], [[milk]], or [[honey]]. It is often thought of as a stricter form of [[vegetarianism]]. Vegans also try to avoid use of [[wool]], [[leather]], [[fur]], and other animal-derived products. The basis of veganism is the idea that killing animals for food is only one part of a wider problem of unfair exploitation, and that keeping animals for eggs, wool etc is another form of the same exploitation.
These beliefs are refuted by mostconservatives who like to eat meat, as [[God]] supposedly placed animals on earth for human consumption and to allow us to prosper. In addition, it It is impossible possible to supply all the essential nutrients required by the human body entirely through plant products. There is a popular myth that raising or consuming animals causes them pain, which is entirely falseuntil the slaughter of the animal. Animals have no innate fear of deathnervous systems and are able to feel pain, so although the process of raising them may be slightly stressfulfor both the animal and the planet, it is nowhere near as horrific as liberals would want the demand for energy-consuming meat by the general public to believeis still high.
One of the critical fallacies of veganism is that it results in fewer animal deaths than farming plants. This is falsetrue as, as thousands of animals no are killed through the process of harvesting a field, while only a singe animal death occurs few steaks can be gained from one slaughtered animal. This hypocrisy is usually just leveraged so that vegans maintain their supposed "moral" superiority, instead of genuine care of animals, in a manner most similar to liberals.
The final flaw in veganisim is that it is supposedly better for the environment than omnivorous habits. Liberals will often cite water use as a measure of environmental sustainability, but water isn't destroyed by the farming process, it just goes back into the water cycle. Because there is no link between methane or carbon dioxide production and environmental change, veganism is no more beneficial to the environment than a normal diet.
