Always the same discussion with meat eaters.

Yes, facts and design matter:

AI Overview
Human teeth are designed for an omnivorous diet, featuring a
combination of sharp front teeth for cutting and tearing (incisors
and canines) and flat back teeth for grinding (molars and
premolars). This versatile structure allows for the consumption of
both plant-based foods and meat. Key Dental Adaptations for Omnivory >Incisors (Front Teeth): Designed for biting and cutting food, such
as fruits and vegetables. Canines (Pointed Teeth): While smaller
than those in specialized carnivores, human canines are used for
tearing and ripping, particularly meat. Molars and Premolars (Back
Teeth): Flattened for crushing and grinding fibrous plants, nuts,
and meat. Jaw Movement: Unlike carnivores, which mostly have a
vertical, hinge-like jaw, human jaws can move side-to-side, allowing
for the extensive grinding necessary for a mixed diet. Enamel: Human
teeth have thick enamel, which is characteristic of animals that
chew a lot, such as herbivores, reflecting a need to process a wide
variety of textures. Evolutionary Context Humans evolved to consume
a diverse diet, which provided survival advantages during times when
either meat or plant foods were scarce. The development of cooking
further reduced the need for the large, sharp teeth found in strict >carnivores, leading to the smaller, more refined teeth found in
modern humans.

You're dense.

You're in more arrogant denial of reality.

I already said we CAN eat meat but that doesn't mean we
HAVE TO eat meat.

I already addressed your controlling nature and dismay with free will.

Just because we can eat
meat doesn't mean we have to eat meat.

Irrelevant, free will and all that liberty stuff you loathe.

Can a child abuser use that defence in court?

Is there even the slightest commonality between a criminal defense of
an actual crime against hominid young and your perceived outrage that
many humans would lawfully choose to consume meat?

Then please list for us the great Vegan societies of this world and
how long they lasted.

(here, done for ya)

"Historically & Culturally Plant-Based Societies

Jainism (India): A major religion practicing Ahimsa (non-violence), often adhering strictly to a vegan or vegetarian diet.

Rastafarianism (Jamaica): The "Ital" diet promotes natural, plant-based eating, often without added salt or chemicals.

Ancient Influences: Historical figures such as Egyptian Pharaoh Akhenaten (banned animal sacrifice) and Greek philosophers like Porphyry (who advocated against eating sentient animals) promoted early forms of vegan philosophy.

Gujarat, India: Known as the world's first vegetarian city, Palitana,
where meat and egg sales are banned."

Now explain to us whey you live in one of the most carnivorous nations
on the face of God's green earth!

"AI Overview
Approximately 66% to 89% of Australians identify as meat-eaters,
positioning the country among the highest per-capita meat consumers
globally. While around two-thirds are strict meat-eaters, another 19%
are flexitarians, bringing the total population consuming meat
regularly to over 85%."
