Not the meat idiot "vegans" would eat if they weren't idiot "vegans".
They're thinking of the meat commonly available in supermarkets. They know,
correctly, that if they were to eat that meat - the ONLY meat they would
consider eating at all - it would cause the death of animals.

They ALLLLLLLLL start out by believing the fallacy. Even after the fallacy
is pointed out to them, they still behave AS IF they believe it. It's the
only way to explain the Irrational Search for Micrograms.

The fallacy is an inherent part of bad "vegan" thinking.
