You can be against the “meat industry”, and also still eat meat. The way livestock is treated in the US is appalling, but that doesn’t mean I’ll go vegan in protest. There are alternatives to factory farming that don’t involve systematic animal cruelty.
You’ve never been to an actual farm? You know, where people take care of their animals, and allow them to roam free? Those animals are treated very well, and often live long and happy lives.
Unlike factory farms, where animals are stacked up in rows, and basically “grown” in small cages by the hundreds, never once seeing the sky.
Something like 99% of all animals raised on farms in the US are on factory farms. Yet somehow every other time this question comes up people never eat food from factory farms.
You could be the 1%, but odds are pretty good that you dont actually know where your meat comes from.
I’m not saying I don’t eat meat from factory farms…that would be prohibitively difficult. But there are plenty of things we could be doing to change the industry, that don’t exclusively depend on going vegan.

Outside of environmental culling like lionfish or invasive hogs, I don’t really see any. Its not called “husbandry” for no reason

Going vegan would be easiest
…and the easiest way never causes problems or fails people does it?
I mean, yea of course. people do massively hypocritical shit all the time.
