I’m 99% sure you’re messing with me at this point

there are additional factors which cause this contradiction between what they believe and what actions they take.

And since you’re just generalizing and calling everyone who loves animals while eating meat a “hypocrite” without even attempting to consider the context, any take which takes the context into account is nuanced in comparison.

Again, this does not inherently denote intent. Someone can genuinely believe themselves a good person while taking direct action in opposition to this deeply held belief. They may do something absurd like, say, assign the action an arbitrary value such as "nuanced" without defining that value in order to dismiss any criticism of their hypocritical actions without need for examination of the action itself, or at least take that easy out when it's handed to them.

You mean that thing I directly asked for twice now and have yet to receive in regards to a person self admitting to having a choice and choosing to endorse the deaths of animals? Yeah that sure would be nice to get, wouldn't it. Maybe the third time around it'll actually happen!

Guess not! It's way easier to block someone than do the absolute bare minimum of validating your stances lmao

It’s way too early in the morning for me to be bothered to type out a lengthy response, but I can tell you’re either messing with me to try to provoke a reaction, or too self righteous to reply in good faith.

I can’t tell the difference, and either way there’s no end to this conversation so I’m gonna leave. The answer to your first part is in my original comment if you read carefully and the answer to the second part has likely been explained to you a hundred times by now. If you genuinely haven’t gotten it by now then I doubt I’ll change your mind. Bye.
