All good.

Unfortunately with industrial agriculture everything gets wiped out so a mono-crop can cover the ground, so not hurting things is a great ethic, but not a realistic practice within modern industrial culture. It's really about good nutrition and healthy lifestyle... and vegetarianism is the normal way spiritual folk like Hindus, Buddhists and Jains have represented their no harm ethics. Vegans are an artifact of the rich Western industrialised world. Without labs for supplements and access to any kind of food whenever and wherever you want it, i.e. without the industrialisation which is destructive to nature, there are no vegans. In that way, the survival of vegans actually depends on mass destruction. If you really think about it, the least destructive possible life is an omnivorous one, but in the modern industrial cultural setting, there is no 'good life', so to speak. That's how things are. There is no 'all good'. There's only how gracefully you take the good with the bad.

IOW. Vegetarianism is way better. Good job.
