Yeah, not all meat eaters! All diets matter!
edit to explain: The unfathomable and pointless violence that the meat industry engages in is normalized, just like the violence of patriarchy and white supremacy. Centering the small number of edge cases where these relations do not hold in a conversation about the mass violence of the dominant system is an attempt to rob the powerless of a voice.
You are right that the intersection of carnitarian minority cultures and the suffering of the animals they consume in the process is vulnerable, like an “all lives matter” protester is right that a white person’s life matters too. If your only concern is cultural preservation then you’re using culture as an excuse for violence against non-humans.

I used logistics and food availability as an argument but I don’t see you replying to me.
