    normalizes the idea of the consumption of animal products

    Consumption of animal products is normal. For thousands of years.

      I was talking about normalization in the sense of what psychologically feels normal to a given person in question; not about what’s popular. As vegan even the thought of eating an animal product is utterly bizarre and grotesque to me. You gotta take off those blood-tinted glasses to see clearly.

        Sounds like a “you” problem.

                  So it’s deluded to recognize that factory farms would literally not exist if it weren’t for the insane amount of demand there is for those products, from 98% of the population in western countries?
