Thoughts and prayers? No. Fines. Potentially jailtime. Potentially forcing them to sell farms and factories.

But you do not want it. You’re delusional and thinking the animals will just have to endure for a little while longer while you’re working on getting the entire planet to switch to a vegan diet.

Besides, you need the worst cases to stay around.

You need to film conversion content, and it’ll have to be fresh and gruesome content to be effective.

And how do you intend to implement those things? Thoughts and prayers.

Yes. Because we don’t know how to vote.

Oh, which candidate that supports those things you mentioned were you going to vote for but now aren’t? Love to hear even a single name.

Of course, you can’t answer that, because that’s not a realistic path in the short term. Let’s say you were going to run for office on that platform. First, the major corporations that have a vested interest in keeping things the way they are are going to dump money into the opposition. Second, people will oppose it because it would increase the price of meat - they’ll say you’re an elitist who wants to make it so that only the rich can have access to it, and emphasize the effect it’ll have on grocery bills. They’ll also talk about the environmental impact your regulations would cause, since it would take more land to treat animals humanely. And they will also call you a hypocrite for refusing to give up meat while calling the production process unethical, to the point of being deserving of jail time.

So explain to me how exactly you would’ve overcome those obstacles, if only us mean insidious vegans weren’t so preoccupied with asking you to give up your treats.
