Do you think if everyone in the world stopped buying meat, that the slaughterhouses would keep killing cows? I’m going to assume you don’t think that, and I’m going to assume you believe the slaughterhouses kill cows because people buy them.
So let me know if you DON’T think that your and others’ purchasing of meat causes animal agriculture. Because I think you agree that your actions and others’ actions cause it.
It’s too late to prevent murder from existing, so if I pay that assassin a million dollars to murder you, I don’t see how that changes the state of the world meaningfully
you are engaging in an immoral conspiracy. no such conspiracy exists between me and slaughterhouses. your analogy is broken, and you should stop trying to make it work.

no, do you have a plan to make that happen?
So you’re saying your purchasing of meat contributes towards animal agriculture
I doubt it. I bet if I died tomorrow, more meat would be sold next year than this year, and evenore the year after.
I bet more meat is sold next year in the timeline where you live than in the timeline where you die.
how can you prove something like that?
no. slaughterhouses kill cows because they are paid by the cattle owners to do so.
animal agriculture existed before anyone ever bought meat. purchasing meat didn’t cause animal agriculture.
Trying to get meat caused animal agriculture. Stop trying to get meat.
it’s too late. animal agriculture exists, and will continue whether I eat meat or not.

Well I thought murder was wrong because dying hurts, not because it’s a secret.
conspiracies don’t need to be secret.
Well then I don’t see the relevant difference between what you’re doing and assassination contracts
