The criticism being “don’t do it”. My meat consumption has decreased but is not eliminated. Always defended people’s dietary preferences when vegetarians/vegans faced backlash. Not they’ve become the preachy ones.
Farmers (and by extension the people who pay them) are exploiting animals.
I don’t think I used the term brainwashed in my comments so not sure why you’re attacking me for that, but if you are really continuing to harm animals only because someone used a word you don’t like that’s cause for some introspection.

Downplaying the ethical view that exploiting others is wrong and should be avoided as a “dietary preference” comes off as a little disingenuous.
Who is exploiting anyone? Choosing to not eat meat is a dietary preference, regardless of your irrelevant use of quotation marks.
Maybe you’d make more progress if stopped calling people “brainwashed”. That’s ACTUALLY disingenuous.
