Most serious vegans understand something about the differential in agency that comes with even relative poverty. The books that sort of founded the movement take this into account.
And there is a LOT of relative poverty in places you don’t normally expect, especially with housing costs as they are around most of the Capitalist world.
Easy to say when you have choices in where to shop. Lack of transportation and odd work schedules destroy that Real Quick. As does rural life, or life in an urban food desert.
There is more to poverty than lack of money - there is also frequently a lack of time away from work for serious food preparation. And idk if you’ve looked at vegan processed food lately but uh… The opposite holds true about their price.
No one can survive on crock pot beans alone.
Once again, 100 companies are responsible for how much of the emissions? Your consumer choices are not a Revolution that will save the world. Consumer choice is a poor substitute for activism that has been sold to you by your Masters.
You do know there are places without supermarkets right? Or are you that sheltered to believe that the high Andes have a Piggly wiggly on every other precipice?
At the super market! Not everyone has access to world wide goods shipped in on cargo ships burning fucking bunker fuel in a gigantic two stroke(inefficient and dirtier burning than 4 stroke) by the gallons per mile.
Unless you are growing your own, I would argue you are contributing to the climate crisis more than my ham hocks.
The discussion was not whether or not they eat beans. It was about you being a high and mighty vegan. While you were eating those high Andes(big doubt) beans, were you giving them the run down about how them eating pigs is bad? That they are adding to climate change?
But good try little homie, we’re all very proud of your attempt to change the conversation.

Lol wut. Beans are super cheap. Vegan food is literally cheaper then products from the animal industry that is causing climate catastrophe

Where can you not buy beans?
You do know there are places without supermarkets right? Or are you that sheltered to believe that the high Andes have a Piggly wiggly on every other precipice?
You can buy beans in gas stations, convince stores, and general stores

Beans are the most climate efficient source of protein. They are nitrogen fixers. You can buy them anywhere you can buy food. No supermarket needed.
From small town arctic circle to small towns near Antarctica. From Asia to Africa. Everywhere. You will find beans.
Cool, you go there and tell them they’re living wrong then.
I’ve been. I ate beans. Plenty of locals eat beans there too. Because its cheaper and makes more sense.
