So? Being opposed to Slavery used to be an extreme position...and then it wasn't. being Atheist was an extreme position -now it isn't
Yea, your comparisons would work if being opposed to slavery and being an atheist didn't make sense and wasn't logical. Being opposed to any form of animal agriculture is an extreme position and will remain that way because it is not logical or practical to conduct. We get a hell of a lot of our clothing from animals and we get a lot of our food from animals. How would we keep up with clothing and material demands if we didn't use animals? How would the world feed itself if we didn't eat animals? Short answer: a lot of people would starve to death because there simply isn't enough vegetables and plants to eat and share with every other herbivore (whose populations would spike rapidly seeing as we aren't eating any) which would only make the problem worse.
