Need you ask? Even the group here is conflicted. It seems we can't even agree that to buy the inhumanely raised meat is to contribute to its perpetuation.
The question was framed to draw attention to the fact that it isn't easy. Otherwise, it would be done.
Then you did misunderstand the statement. When I say "it's that easy," I mean it's as easy as not buying inhumane meat. Making that choice IS easy. I don't take it upon myself to convince people otherwise. My stance in this debate is about the fact that purchasing inhumane meat contributes to its continued abuse of animals. That is something that can be solved with logic and economics. Convincing people to do it isn't easy and isn't necessarily appropriate.
But discussion is necessitated when it is denied that spending money on a product supports the producers of that product.
