Why do you go directly to the extreme implementation? No one said anything about "enforcement". There are ways to push society towards a better paradigm without enforcement. We also shouldn't let the lowest common denominator have a say in the direction of society. People that "would go to war" over the fact that they should eat less red meat are not exactly of sound mind.

> We also shouldn't let the lowest common denominator have a say in the direction of society. Interesting. Do you see this as defending democracy?

I'm not sure your question has enough context. But yes, not allowing the most illogically angry people (defined by me as the lowest common denominator in this Context) to start wars (aka crime and violence) over their hurt feelings is most definitely a way to defend democracy.

We haven't been factory farming for even a hundred years (not really). I would also challenge that cows evolved to be efficient at producing CO2? haha.

Factory farming is a refinement in the process of farming more generally.

I want to eat meat from chickens and cows that had good, happy lives, eating the healthiest most natural form of their diet possible. I don't want lab grown meat, the concept is disgusting. As it is our food is too processed and industrial. Maybe we can focus on mixed farming instead https://www.earth.com/news/mixed-farming-could-increase-food...

You should check out some videos of factory farms!

I have which is why I don’t eat anything that comes from factory farms.
