Politely disagree. I think we’re kidding ourselves if right wing conspiracy theorists are the only anti plant based crowd. There’s plenty of otherwise leftist people that would never question this one unjustified hierarchy.

More often than not those people aren't rabidly against plant-based or other such alternative protein sources, it seems like they just don't think to consume them.

That is an important distinction, true! But that just means they're the target group of all those resource-intensive innovations towards animal based proteins that are more sustainable. So I felt it important to consider them.
