You and all of us are natural omnivours. Veganism is a denial of your and anyone's fundamental nature as an omnivore. We are all the scavengers and hunters of the serengeti.
To deny that in principle is to deny our species in principle. We are not evolved for a vegan diet. It is not our nature. This by first principles, veganism is to deny humanity a right to even exist. It is to hurl guilt at the very nature of humanity. Can we test that? Sure. We have. And veganism fails. As far as I am concerned, militant veganism, such as you propose is not very different from breatharianism and has as much scientific basis. You might as well subscribe to Raelianism.
Face it. Veganism taken to it's logical conclusion, requires that you must rely upon artificial dietary supplements. There is no escaping that fact. The human body is simply not built that way. It matters not what justification you might invent.
Herbivores evolved to be herbivores, carnivores evolved to be carnivores. Omnivores evolved to take advantage of whichever was available. Nobody can change that. The human race evolved to utilise whatever available resource over hundreds of thousands of years.
The very idea that one can stop the sheer momentum of all of that evolution in favour of a misinformed religious belief is absurd. Somehow, we are all supposed to be convinced about the Vegan religion that we will all change our ways on the basis of the claims made without evidence? Sounds like the bible to me. Sounds like religion to me.
But suppose we did so. You would have choices. What would one do with the existing livestock? Cull it for no reason? Leave it to starve? What if they reproduce in the wild and there is nothing you can do about it? This is the problem with the whole vegan crapfest. It entails wholesale elimination of entire species either by intent or simple neglect.
And this is the problem with vegans. The logical end point is that wholesale, many species must perish, become extinct, slaughtered even. Vegans are not fundamentally setting out to save animals. They want to kill them, to promote their particular nirvana. They are not setting out to save humanity either because they think we are all worthy of death anyway.
This is a trope that has been sneaked in. Get somebody, anybody, to relax and close their eyes and imagine what a peaceful perfect world looks like. Then ask them to describe it. Guess what is missing? People. 9 out of ten.
