    I have seen this same argument on Lemmy multiple times: poor people should be happy to live on beans and rice rather than have any form of animal protein, even if it tastes really good to them.

    I’m not in favor of farming animals on an industrial scale, but I also hate this whole idea that poor people should be satisfied with bland, restrictive diets while the rich can eat whatever the hell they want.
