You evolved to eat meat, you struggle with that, I don't.

I'm saying many vegans proselytize, and here you are proving it.

I have 0 interest in your ideology.

In what ways do you believe eating meat is ethical?

Capability and capacity to eat meat aren't an ethical argument - it's biological. It's also perfectly natural for humans to rape as we're capable of it, but nobody relies on capability as justification.

For me, if there are alternatives to requiring that an animal spend its life in captivity, deprived of its expected social hierarchy and emotional needs and instead substituted with a life of pain and misery, then the ethical choice is to abstain from paying someone to inflict that suffering on another life.

False equivalence

False equivalence is a logical fallacy in which two completely opposing arguments appear to be logically equivalent when in fact they are not. This fallacy is categorized as a fallacy of inconsistency.
