Asking people to live a life doing the least harm possible towards animals shouldn’t really be a controversial topic tbh
Vegans do just as much if not more harm towards animals, environments and indigenous peoples…
I’m sorry but if someone is actively trying to do the least harm possible I don’t see how they could be doing the same if not more???

Also…pretty much all of Google
Annnnnnd just a few more things: Not everyone can be Vegan, some people have serious disorders or inabilities to digest certain foods that vegans rely on. Your avocado toast alone is killing Mexico, Australia and Kenya. This took me 2 minutes to type into Google.
If you’re vegan, that’s fine. But trying to guilt everyone else into doing it too by saying that they’re ruining the world or claiming that you’re somehow better than I am because I’m unable to live that way is bullshit.
As expected, not a single one of your sources says anything even vaguely backing up the idea that vegans cause “ as much or more harm.”
This is an article about how vegans (alongside meat eaters) can still cause harm with things like avacadoes, mangoes, quinoa and suggest instead that we try to buy local or grow our own. Not a single sentence to suggest “more harm.” We are not claiming to cause no harm, we are claiming to cause less.
You clearly haven’t even skimmed through this one, as it’s primary purpose is to debunk the myths that you yourself are perpetuating.
Again, you haven’t read this, or even read the URL by the looks of it. This is an article from a vegan blog posing the question of whether vegans kill more animals than meat eaters. Their answer is, unsurprisingly, a resounding no.
You may have actually read some of this, but been severely misled by a fairly transparent clickbait title and very selective interpretation. The study linked actually concludes that in an animal-free model, agricultural greenhouse-gas emissions dropped by 28%. Again, no mention of the idea that vegans cause more harm than meat eaters do.
Not a single one of these “sources” even hinted that vegans cause more harm or the same harm by being vegan, in fact, two of them were actually encouraging vegan diets, and the fourth offers objective measurements of exactly how much less harm vegans are causing, albeit solely in environmental terms. If you’re going to do the whole “death by sources thing,” you should probably take more than “2 minutes to type it into google,” and actually read the websites you’re claiming back up your demonstrably false assertion.
