Hey, you most likely weren’t raised vegan, too. I’d also argue that to oppose suffering, you have to give individuals (i.e./that is people) some sort of worth, but then most killing doesn’t check out.
Naw, I know some people with negative worth who still shouldn’t be suffering. In fact, I’m pretty sure they’re suffering from their lack of worth. This is a matter of ethics, not value.
Those might be suffering from lack of self-worth, but making difference between people’s worth opens up a can of ethical mold. Misanthropy is one thing, but the value of human life is untouchable.
No, that attitude is simple evolutionary pressure to stay alive. The value of a human is no different from the value of a cow ethically, and I’ll eat cow. I don’t want either to suffer. Some people are economically far less valuable than cows.

Cultural evolution > Social Darwinism
Do you eat human? From a “farm”? Or shot “in the wild”?
Right to exist is not touched by effort.
Do you know what would reduce suffering for both cow and human?
Nobody has a right to exist. You have to fight just like anything else.
I really hope for your environment that you don’t actually believe or implement this.
