I guess, just never had that thought. The point of being vegan is that I realized things like steak and sausage and even milk are bad to eat (for many reasons.). I dont want imitiation steak, because steak is bad. Just like i dont want to murder dummies because murder is bad. Idk if im making sense, but i do find it perverted to make and eat "vegan steak."

I hear you. Personally my reason for going vegan was the ethical one, in that I could no longer live with myself without making a conscious decision to avoid being involved in the harm of animals.

But I see your perspective too.

I think it's the same perspective? I also am vegan for ethical reasons.

You ever play video games? A lot of them are just play murder.

Sure, but is feeling like you murdered someone the fun part of video games? Not for me at least.

I'm thumb typing this playing (well, it's paused) a very murder-y video game.

So I think the answer is yes and no, in large part because killing someone in a video game doesn't usually feel like hurting someone in real life. And likewise eating a meat dish doesn't feel like hurting someone. Difference is, someone is hurt by the production of meat, but not by playing a video game or calling a mushroom a "steak" because it fills the role of a steak on your plate.
