Unless being vegan would keep you from actually eating the rich, this point is utterly and completely irrelevant.
To illustrate, imagine some celebrity said "rape culture is bad, and everyone should work against it!". Do I, as some average guy, get a pass if I talk about how "um akschually, Epstein Island, Trump, bla bla"?
Like, seriously, my INDIVIDUAL impact on womens liberation is exactly as big as your impact on animals rights. So do we both get to just not care, and sit on our lazy asses, because we can't, on our own, change the world?
You people talk a big game about material reality, about systems, but you've turned "systems" into a near religious excuse for personal inaction. "The revolution" is the second coming, and all you have to do is believe. Not act, not make the world a better place, just preach.
Not really given the bold claim in the op title.
