i am more than willing to engage on any positive claim you want to make (i probably agree with a lot of them). what i’m not willing to do is tolerate personal attacks and dogpiling.

if this was written by anyone else, I’d take it with a grain of salt.

I just don’t believe you.

anyone can read it and see i grasp the subject, and reject unscientific work.

your link shows the same as the op thread: I’m primarily interested in a factual, scientifically accurate discussion.

mutual aid: a factor of evolution

but we DO make tofu and tvp. and they have higher profits per pound than animal feed. but we produce far too much soybean oil for the amount of byproduct people want to consume. giving it to livestock makes sense

The soy that’s fed to pigs is almost entirely the byproduct of pressing soy for soybean oil. about 85% of the soybean crop is pressed for oil. if we didn’t feed the byproduct to livestock, it would just be industrial waste.
