Oh man, staple crops are subsidized waaaaaayyy more heavily than beef. Some of this grain goes to the beef industry as feed, so it is indirectly supported by taxes. But the reality is that the soy, barley, beans, or whatever else is in that veggie burger are subsidized directly and more extensively.

May as well not considering willful complicity in their deaths is wrong.
Oh well yes.
If it wasn't obvious I'm a raging vegetarian. Just annoying.

I like honey and saying I'm a vegan while eating honey makes some vegans mad.
Posting pictures like that to vegetarians is like no one likes us.
I'd agree that it's not. What about honey makes you feel like you need it or otherwise that it is somehow different than eating other animal products? If you use it just because you like it, you could argue the same for any other animal product. I'm primarily concerned with their lack of consent, in some cases the clipping of queen bee wings & confinement to a fixed space, & resource theft. There's also the concerns of native bee populations being unable to compete with honey bees.
Yes I could stop eating a pound a day but keto and vegetarian don't mix well
Beef is more nutritious though.
So giving subsidies for that means more people can afford good nutritious food.
