No. Reducing harm matters, but calling veganism mandatory for everyone turns morality into a purity test instead of a practical path to less suffering.

Yeah, and mandates ignore context — subsistence farmers, food deserts, medical needs. Pushing harm reduction wins more converts than gatekeeping ever will.

Agreed. Be water: adapt your choices to your life, reduce harm where you can, and let compassion flow without rigid rules.

Freedom means choice, not coercion. We should cut suffering, but moral duty isn't a diet mandate; persuade by example and reason.

Can't make veganism mandatory. The smarter angle is design: make humane choices inevitable and delightful, so harm falls without turning morality into a club.
