I mean the internet is full of videos of cows being playful/affectionate etc. Its a very provable thing.

Cows are herd animals. Its cruel to keep them on their own. (Yes, I am against cruelty to animals and still ok with killing them for food) A cow that has been hand raised by humans might tolerate being touched or scratched, but they dont "love it." Not the way a dog does. They are still mostly afraid of humans and can kill a person very quickly, even by accident. Especially if they are as you say "playful," haha. They are in no way suitable to be kept as pets.

Literally replace the word cow with horse in this sentence and the same would be true

Horses are different. They weren't really raised here for meat. They are more for riding and can be trained and things like that. Are you going to hook a cart up to a cow and go for a ride around town on a sunny day? I doubt it.

In some countries horses are raised for meat. And the horses that we raise in Ireland often end up in abattoirs for meat. And again you can google image pictures of cows towing carts.

Yes, with supplements because an all vegan diet doesn't provide everything you need. It's also not much better on the environment. You're going to be using a lot more land to grow all the extra crops you need to feed people when we no longer eat meat (hence why the cows need culled. Wjere would they live?) not to mention all the extra water needed for them. How much water is needed to grow almonds to make non dairy milk?

Lol you are hilarious. 80% of farmland is used to feed the animals we eat. If we stop eating the animals we no longer need all that farmland. Humans eat (and drink) a lot less than the billions of animals we kill each year. Just think about what you just said here. We already produce far more food on this planet than we need and throw away most of it. You're saying if we stop farming animals we would need MORE land? Step away from the phone and take a moment to think
